The current version of the virus is very diluted. If ya can't survive that, ya wouldn't survive a light flu either.
They claim 34 degree Friday afternoon, that will likely hit my plants in the polytunnelTemp is Spain is set to hit 41c or 140F, this week, that's a tad warm even for Spain. Hopefully, at least some of it will head in our direction.
Thee is no pressure to post, it should be because you enjoy it, not because you feel pressured, relax, we’ll catch up when your readyWell last night I got home and did my laundry after emptying my suitcase etc. I had a little dinner then I realized I was tired. So I had a night cap early and called it. I didn't have the energy to sit and post pictures. I think I will tonight. Sorry about that!
At the office today to play catch up and review a few things.
Ya'll have a good day!
Pictures?Today is the first day of the semiweekly farmer’s market downtown. SWMBO is selling ornaments that she made, so I’m keeping her company. Supposed to get to about 94/103 heat index. I thought I left this sauna in Jersey.
Willie- I vote for the thong bikini, your vision is no longer good enough to paint a string bikini on her.3) Thong bikini, 4) String bikini???
Besides -- It is difficult to paint while you are holding an election - LMAO!I vote for the thong bikini, your vision is no longer good enough to paint a string bikini on her.
Louis: No, they just haven't been bought out and downsized like other Utilities.BGE must be miracle workers!
Always something with that team...alternative reality enabled by greed is the way I took it.I have no idea what is next.
You have been keeping up with my painting skills!Mikey and Sherril,
If it was up to you 2 to paint, she may wind up with "granny panties"!
Besides Sherril, "election day" ain't til November!
Steve - if the grabber on a stick does not work, ya might make some permanent AND easy to get to/reach. Since it looks that those lights are only for railroad light how about a "patio light" of sorts attached to the wall where you can reach to change the bulb? If you can do electrical, you can probably install some 14/2 romax and make the connection pretty. This way you will only have to clear the layout *once*. Ifn you can't do electrical, remember those older swag lamps? You put in a screw in plug thingies then connect the light.Ugh - - calling for a high of 97F (36C) in Minneapolis today. Way too hot for us snowbirds. Gonna make the day's nine holes a little less fun. But still going. No kilt today, though. Even with a wool blend, don't need 2-1/2 pounds strapped of material around my waist!
Not much done in the train room. Still rethinking my loop-interior. But I do have a tech problem:
I have to get to these light bulbs and change them. One is burnt-out. I will change them to daylight LEDs and will do both at the same time - but I have to get to them. Any ideas? Wife suggested cutting a hole from the closet and covering it.

Yes, I knew that would be a problem when I put that deck all the way back into that alcove - - but since I had not changes those bulbs in six years, was hoping the problem would be a ways out yet. But alas . . . So any ideas helpful.
I am thinking a sheet of plywood laid over the track and cut around the roundhouse. That should distribute the weight enough to prevent damage to the foam base, but will it damage/move the tracks?
Well, whilst you cogitate upon that, here's a rare garden pic for me:

The peonies are looking nice this year. Though today's 97F will no doubt put the hurt on them.
Wanna bet??? Stay tuned.Willie- I vote for the thong bikini, your vision is no longer good enough to paint a string bikini on her.
