Stop in for a cup of coffee

Ok, so my son and I got the Dustet floor pan sealed today! Woohoo! Then we head to the back to pull the tank. Got a Tanks Inc FI tank on the way from MagnumMopar. Getting stoked about the progress. Then I see it.... The spare tire well is rusted out! Dang it! Can't catch a break! So pulled the tank, and decided what the heck lets yank out the 7 1/4 while we're down here. Fairly productive morning. Plus I got to spend some time with the boy. He's headed off to college in a couple weeks. I'll take the time and help when I can get it!
 
Stopped in for a water. Trimming shrubs this afternoon with my new "Worx 20 volt lithium hedge trimmer" It works well. Got almost a hour with one battery charge. Here's what I'm working on. The 4 in the front have been removed. Bushes on the north and south sides also

It's almost 100 years old and needs work! I feel 100 years old and can't do the work it needs. LOL

NOOOOOOO, I don't want to think of snow right now .

That pic makes me want to go out and bake in the sun while I still can. I love these hot summer days!!!
 
short break from canning, i picked another 2 boxes, some 50 lbs this morning of roma's and a few dozen beefsteaks and bradywines, the other 4 boxes yielded 23 quarts but those were almost 90% roma, which have less juice, this 2 boxes from today is almost 40% roma and 60% beefsteak/brandywines, the big juicers. should be fun

Lots of work but well worth it in the long run. Love those Roma's. They are usually a bit cheaper, a solid little tomato with few seeds. I have had issues with diverticulosis so the fewer the seeds the better. I even use Roma's on BLT's. Great for salsa. I haven't had a pot of chili with fresh canned tomatoes for years......just like mom used to make!
 
Just had another serious storm cell pass thru. Lots of rain. No lightning though.

Nothing heavy here yet. It's just been a nice steady gentle rain for the past 3 hours. Almost nothing is running off, it's all just soaking into the ground.

Slowed to a steady rain here also. How you feeling better I hope.
