Good morning everyone

The mind rodents woke me up earlier than usual so you benefit in the form of a pot of French roast coffee, ready and waiting for you.

It's 45°F and mostly cloudy in Rockville; there are still traces of moisture on the pavement so I'll assume that we didn't do a lot of drying-out overnight but equally that we haven't had rain in the last few hours at least. Partly sunny skies and a high of 61 await, later today. Having an empty calendar means I have no idea what else awaits me today.

Stay safe and well everyone and tell your dear ones you love them. Do it today, NOW, because tomorrow may be too late.
 
Thank you for the start Keith, much appreciated this morning. 37 degrees under cloudy skies here in central NY heading to 52 with Mr. Sunshine coming out later in the day. After 3 days of solid rain,we need a break. Some PT at home this morning and the Masters this afternoon is about all I have my agenda today. Be safe all. Later!

Good morning all
Thanks for the hot start Keith!

On the road again!
I’m delivering my old truck this morning, my neighbours son bought it and he lives 3.5 hours away. I’m dropping it off & picking up an electric bike for another neighbour on the return trip.

33/47 F here in Stokes Bay, with a S breeze and a sunny day thats promising clouds later on.

Have a great Sunday!

Good morning,2:30 am , went to bed but couldn't fall asleep, today was take Dexamethasone pills, they are a steroid based pill ,one side effect they boast my energy levels and make it hard to sleep. Has the same effect on the mind rodents. Delta Air Park is having their Monthly Pancake breakfast this morning, might help out and flip pancakes, or not. A bicycle ride might happen and play in Tractor shop, need to find out what size bearings are on the motorcycle hauling trailer. Well when I get sleepy heading back to bed, check in later,G

G'Day...

earth, N48 13.827 E16 26.545, about 0650hrs local, the scream of a 600cc inline 4 redlining through an empty Akrapovic echoes down the road... :cautious:

No mind-hamsters, but the piercing sound of a crutch rocket being wrung out by some numb-nut ended our night rest...
quite abruptly and surely not intended to happen that early I might add... pfffff... :rolleyes:
may his oil leak, his rings break and his connection rods throw a piston... idiot, its Sunday...

9°/19°C today, light gray overcast for the rest of the day... plus: another Sahara dust warning...

Slightly unnerved I got up and downstairs to hammer on the buttons of the Nespresso maker... :coffee:
With a hot cup of Joe in my hand I followed ze GF outside, who'd decided to take a barefoot walk in the dew-cold grass... :freeze1:
a Kneipp cure treatment that tames her down... ;)
We inspected the progress of various plant growth stadiums and what's about to blossom next... like the small apple three thing, which appears really motivated this year...
Back indoors, a small breakfast, more coffee, bread, butter, jelly... :coffee:

Replaced the CMOS battery on her HP notebook... now she's sorting the photos from last night's event :cool:

anyway, enjoy your Sunday... hopefully without a racetrack sound-stage...
 
good morning all. thank you Keith for the coffee. 68F on the dog walk with a bright full moon to light the way. a few stars and some clouds but the show stopper was the moon.
today is dog training up in Coolidge and the wife ask me to ride along. I said yes as long as we stop for donuts on the way up. she said we could stop so looks like my day went to the dogs. the high today should see 91F. enjoy the day

stay safe
 
Good morning, all, and thanks for the wake-up, Keith! I have a nice potful of full-bodied Sumatra from Café William, if anyone needs a refill.

We have thickly overcast skies here this morning, but that should transition to a mix of sun and clouds and eventually, to mainly sunny conditions. The current temperature of 5°C/41°F will climb to a quite respectable high of 14°C/57°F. There will be open windows today. And I finally saw a robin on my way to the clinic yesterday, which made me smile. Spring is finally here. It's taking its time yawning and stretching, but it's here.

Everyone have a great day, stay safe and go safely.

Good morning, and thanks for the coffee, Keith.

It's foggy/cloudy and 36 this morning, rising to 49 later.
We're told to expect rain showers and then cloudiness through the day.

Yesterday involved a lot of nothing, as predicted.

Today, I'll make and effort to get out and do SOMETHING.

@motomac, I'm sorry to hear of Carole's lack of progress. Give her our best.

Enjoy the day,
Steve
 
G'mornin' from SoMD! Whoever is living upstairs needs to hire a plumber bc it won't stop raining! Only 48F/9C, still dreary, but expected to finally see some peeks of sunshine and springy temps to dry us out! I made it 0702 before the royalty demanded their morning services. On a Sunday, I guess that's about average. So, throw some food on the floor and some hot joe down the hatch, thanks Keith!

Kept relatively busy the past few days (besides the work that keeps me and royalty feed and the lights on). Finished making the hand truck for the trailer. Turned out acceptable. I've got a rope for the handle for now, might change it to wood later...or never. Otherwise, just doing taxes and working in the bsmt office (3D printing, light electronic work). Really trying to clear out lots of lingering "projects" I've mentally taken on but never finished or even started, only collected the parts for and then pushed to the side. I'm hoping this will help unburden my mind and not feel so overwhelmed (even though it is self-inflicted)....and maybe clear out some house clutter....maybe.1000017341.jpg1000017342.jpg
 
Morning all! Another sunny day on the way. A bit chilly at 4C with a high of 14C predicted.

Not sure exactly what is on the agenda for the day, still trying to boot up the brain. I expect some cleaning, errands and hopefully a ride on the ST.....a carrot v. stick kind of situation.

Hope everyone has a great day!
 
Morning Keith & All, from sunny (subject to change), Southern Utah!

Currently it is 54F, up from 41F and heading for 68F. We have a breeze blowing now, from the NE @ 4 to 6mph, but later, we're expecting the winds from the NNW @ 13 to 21mph. The Weather Guessers are calling for rain, later in the week. I'll believe it, when I see it on the ground. :well1:

@motomac : Mac, sure hope Carole starts feeling better soon! :pray1:

I was able to get some more done to the AZ05 build. I replaced the seals and o-rings to the back cover.

I'll be attending to the front cover, with the clutch & water pump, next week.

But, I also have to start spending my time on the "Yard" too! :rolleyes:

Boiled eggs, bacon, toast & OJ to start the morning. Pepsi(s) for later.

Anyone :bl13:, have a great day on the roads! :hat3:
