It Looks To Be

 Yet another nice day coming up. Seasonal temps and some rain in the forecast. I got some essential stuff done yesterday and I feel good about that. I don't have much on my plate today apart from the gym. I can't emphasize enough the need to exercise on a regular and consistent basis, and have some weight training and resistance work as part of the routine. I've been doing that for at least 35 years, NOT body building but strength training. I found time for exercise even when I worked. I'd get home from work and hit the weights and follow that with a brisk walk. Weekends were for bicycling and jogging. It can be done, and the benefits are lasting.

A Little More Rain

 Yesterday we had light rain and it stayed cloudy most of the day. Plenty of sunshine this morning. 







Later this week we might have a lot of rain again. It looks like the recent rains have not been good for the cotton farmers.

Yes, A Lot Of Rain

  A friend who lives not far from me had five inches in her rain gauge, and so did her neighbor. My rain gauge got smashed to bits in a hail storm several years ago and I never replaced it, but I'm sure I got that much. And it looks like another rainy day. And that's not what was in yesterday's forecast at all. Quick change again. Yesterday, NO chance of rain today or tomorrow, and today began cloudy and wet. With the climate veering toward chaos, it's hard to make accurate forecasts.

Plenty Of Rain!

 Lots of rain yesterday! We needed that rain! We got that rain! It was great! Most of the area had lots of rain! That was good! It came at a good time of year!

Seasonal At Last!

 Great evening as the norther moved in, and it was a great morning to work outside, so I did. Incremental improvements and adjustments here and there, some necessitated a trip to Home Depot. I'm considering options for next year. I've finally got hardy vines growing and there's plenty of stuff for those vines to use as trellises.
