Inside work

That's the part that almost makes it fun, no humidity, work in the ac is almost not work. I do have the 19 yo grandson helping which helps.

It will kick your butt, plus I was a little younger. Well those hundreds were over a few trips spread out.

Keep doing it, it will really help in the long run.

 

I say this because when I redid the garden I had a couple big rocks I had collected years earlier when I was in better shape, I rolled them in the trailer when I got them. When I went to put them in the garden I had to move them again, well I found I had a very hard time just rolling them over, I had to get the tractor. Now they are big but it was still the same rock.

Looked up some of his pictures, he has been at it for a long time, unbelievable shape well past 60.

 

 

Well still raining, checked and emptied the gauge a couple hours ago and it was 3.5 inches. A few gust but nothing really, but everything is being watered well if nothing else.

Well looks like Cristobal likes Canada. Maybe it will continue to the arctic regions. Know it leaves humidity where it goes.

[dtel]

That's a long way for gulf moisture to travel. After I emptied the rain  gauge when I said 3.5" it collected just short of another 2.75 so the total was a little over 6". And now that it's sunny again the humidity has not gone below 75%, the first day stayed 81% or higher.
