Good morning. The forecast rain has missed us for the most part, goes out east and west of us. The sun came out yesterday afternoon so I mowed half the place. This morning I think I'll go to the golf course unless the rain pattern changes before 8.

Up and awake. More honey-dos to do around here than Carters has liver pills. But first, I stretch.  |

Good morning... signs point to a lovely day here. Rehearsing the new trio (guitar, bass and percussion) this morning. Should be fun.

Good Morning Good People
Another perfect Spring day, predicted to be summery by the weekend. Off to check out a prospective tank yank.
Have a tolerable Tuesday one and all.

Wonderful dog!
Good morning everyone. I took a very pleasant morning walk. It'll be getting hot later but for now it's pleasant outside. Work awaits. Enjoy your day.

Getting ready to go to Chaco Canyon for a week. No Internet, no TV and likely no cell phone coverage. Haven't been there since 1999. There will be a solar eclipse while we're there. We added a day to the trip so we can see that (no, I won't look directly at the sun).
