Shoe, I don't want any to get on my pants.

Well it is getting warmer again

Hi Ya ... Well today was better then yesterday ,,weather that is... It got up to 69 deg, and is going to be warmer tomorrow,and by the weekend,, maybe even 89 or 90,, wow what weather we are having now, anyway,, I got some work done in the garden today. I ran the front tine rototiller and got some watering done too.
I sure wish I had someone that I could talk to on Google talk,, I have it all set up now and it is working fine .. All I need is someone that has a mic. I hope that soon, Google will get it to work with video, I put in a request on there want sheet .. what we want to happen,..
Looks like Bob and Anne are getting closer now, they are staying at San Louis reservoir it is just east of Los Banos on I-5 and Hi-way 152 ,,that is a good place to kill some time.. Then they will make it on up here I suppose by the weekend. Will be good to see them again.
Until next time.... Happy trails to YOU...

Another nice day.

Well here I am back,,, just like a bad nickel LOL,, I found this on my Lap top the other day,, ,, The " Pledge of Allegiance " By Red Skeleton... WOW.. and now see what has happened to the PLEDGE...

Yesterday ,here the temp hit 90 deg, now today is going to be in the low to mid 80's then tomorrow ,only in the 60's again. Wow YO --YO weather at it's best.. Be glad when it gets warm and stays there.. Soon to be,I am sure.

Well I listened to the weather today and today is going to be the last warm day for a few days. Tomorrow is going to be in the 60's and today was in the 80's. now isn't that a cats meow,,, yo yo back again.. Well we shall see what mother nature giver us.. this is Spring, and we have to put up with this, BUT,, it is not as bad as up north.. Patty and Dan take care, and stay warm.

I want to let you know that it is rain here today.. Started here this afternoon and so far we have received .24 " and still coming down.. Check the weather station at the bottom of this page and check it out.. First rain in 8 weeks..Lets geter done baby..

Also today worked on the winch on the ATV ,,almost got it all done,, a  minor adj. yet to make on the mount and it will be done.. Looks real nice on it too. I think that this one will be better then the first one I got for it...

weather here today

Well ,,I have no pictures to post today, but wanted to say that the weather here today has just taken a dump on us,,,it is MUCH cooler than it has been .. I just like the warm stuff, and not the cold air and wind like it has been doing now ,,up and down like a yo - yo... We have hit in the mid to upper 80's and now a high of ,mid 50's,,, YUK... At least it is not snowing..
I will pot some more pics, as son as I get all caught up here with my mail etc.. Right NOW in the shop I am working on a lawn mower that my neighbor friend was sending to the dump.. I saw it and said ,,hey I will fix it , what is the matter with it, said that the engine was ok ,but the drive wheels no worky and is very hard to push.. well I took the gears out that make it drive ,,and made it a regular,, push power mower,, I have some carburetor problems with it now. so have more work yet,, it sat out in the rain for a year so that is why it won't run. I had it running yesterday ,as long as I squirt gas into the carb..so have that to do today..
Don't know if I will even plant a garden this year. as Pat can't eat any veg.. that I usually plant,,. they have to many vitamin "K" s in them and that is bad with the coumadin that she has to take to thin her blood..still has to see the Doc. yet to get that set right somewhere between 2.0 and 3.0 ,last time hers was at 1.5 ,,, (that RAT POISON is working slow,)but had gone up from the last time..Ok,, That is it for now..Until next time SEE YA,,,
