WillyBob Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 We're getting our afternoon shower. Rolling in from the east. Nice thing about hill country. Gives some perspective. You see them disappearing and it gives some manner of reference. Came in big drops. The ones that splat Needless to say, the fan is off. Windows open [on the lee side]. And if lightning doesn't hit the house, we'll be good. Several blue flashes and you can't stop from jumping, even when you know it's gonna bang real loud. our weather warning systems, we use two are high tech -- "searching for signal on satellite 1 and 2", and LOW tech. LOW tech = Look Out Window.Visibility is pretty good. 50 -60 miles [usta be] . 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators dtel Posted July 30, 2018 Moderators Share Posted July 30, 2018 Dtel's wife here! We had the privilege and honor of attending @Me Loves Khorns wedding in Galveston, TX this past weekend. Here are a few pics, including his awesome groom's cake....I think a few of you will recognize it! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted July 30, 2018 Moderators Share Posted July 30, 2018 Thank You Paul and Amanda for inviting us, it was a a great wedding at the perfect place. Everything was perfect and I hope you two are happy and do it all over again for your 50th anniversary. I thought it was an amazing place but until I got home and looked it up I didn't realize it's 107 years old, very cool building. 1 Million dollars in 1911, it's no wonder it looks like that, oh and the lobby bar makes a great Bloody Mary. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotel_Galvez 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mangofirst Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Cup of the day today is a travel version. Hubs has a doctor visit. Hoping for more effective treatment options. Brought my crochet project along, of course. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday morning I got my yard work done and the wife and I went for a ride and got lunch. After I got home I worked in my garage the rest of the day and then yesterday. I'm getting ready for a remodel in there. The paint on the sheet rock is peeling horribly like it was painted with no primer. The plan is to pull all the sheet rock out, spray the walls and underside of the roof with insulation and air condition it. I'll put a mini split unit in. It will also get new cabinets and the floor sealed. My first step was going through everything and throwing out things that I didn't need. It's taken the last 2 weekends but I finished up yesterday. The worst part will be removing all my stuff and putting it in a storage unit. I hope to have it done by the first of the year. Everybody here knows how slow I am with these things. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we certainly have humidity here plus the garage is 43 years old. There's really no ventilation most times as it stays closed. I'm thinking of going back with OSB, primer and paint. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
