Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 64 degrees.
The rain had ended in my area yesterday around Noon and things were dry outside this morning. Later on when it is not so early that the noise will bother neighbors I need to go mow the lawn, It was just done Monday and it is growing too fast IMO :

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 52 degrees. On my return I see that the front porch is now down to 50 degrees.
It must have started raining shortly before I left on my walk as there was still dry ground under the trees. It is not a heavy rain, It has been steady since I left OTOH.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The temperature this morning was 59 degrees. Last nights fog that was building when I retired for the evening is gone and there was some rain overnight. When I left everything was wet so I put on the rain jacket, just in case, I ended up taking it off as it was not raining and I was feeling overly warm inside of it. It did start with a light drizzle as I neared the house, I did not bother putting the rain jacket back on.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Rain in the forecast for Yesterday arrived later than predicted and ended somewhere between 4 and 7PM. Then overnight my sleep was interrupted by a Thunderstorm a little while before 3AM, Followed by rain then periods of thunder and rain that ended slightly before 5AM. When I left the house the rain had ended
Today's to do list is more or less complete, I wrote out the payment for the credit card bill that was in Tuesday's mail. Beyond that I need to look at a external hard drive of my brothers. It has been acting up, when I tried connection it to my Big Desktop Any attempt to access it would either lock up Windows or when I ran Seatools since it is a Seagate drive not work. So yesterday I disassembled it using a tutorial video off of YouTube and have connected it to a SATA cable in the computer as a Desktop internal drive and that will be my final To Do item for the day later. Wish Me luck, I have a feeling he kept playing with it too long. Time will tell.

Hi
I'm back from walking and found no cents. The Temperature out the door was 67 degrees. It is a nice enough day outside with a misty haze in the air and a overcast sky.
Today is National Donut Day according to Dunkin Donuts
They are offering a free Donut with any Beverage purchase. Not a biggie to me as I could get a free donut any time I go there for coffee with the AARP card. Not the fancy ones of course.
Krispy Kreme is offering one free doughnut of your choice, no purchase necessary.

Hi
I'm back from walking and found no cents. The Temperature out the door was 71 degrees. It is a humid day thus I worked up a sweat. I did see a Fox on my outbound leg after picking up my coffee.
It was warm yesterday, a fair amount above the normal temperatures for this time of year. Yesterday and today are both humid too. Our chance of rain for yesterday and today has already hit 100%. We had rain and Thunder roll in around 11:30 PM and last for a Hour Plus. I do need to Mow, however with the humidity I think I will wait for tomorrow.
I look back fondly at Fried bread that I had years ago. I would take the skillet that had bacon fried in it and then when the bacon was done Fry bread in the bacon grease until browned. I did like the taste, Probably bad for my arteries.

Hi
I'm back from walking and found no cents. The Temperature out the door was 54 degrees. The rain in the forecast for later Sunday into Monday came true.
There appeared to have been rain overnight, It had ended as I went out the door then started around the time I was 2 blocks from the house and continued until I was back home. I had checked the 5AM weather forecast and since that showed rain to my east and west heading in my direction so I was dressed for it.
The humidity was gone and there was a nice breeze blowing Sunday. I mowed the lawn Sunday , when I went out there was no rain falling, However as I pulled the mower after fueling it and a light spritz of rain started and ended before I finished the front lawn. More rain fell around nightfall and lasted maybe an hour.
