Title: Happy 4th of July
Post by: Onepoint on July 04, 2023, 02:17:13 PM
Weird, seems like it was just last year about this time.

Not much going on for us, I spent most of the day raking and baling so far, have a severe thunderstorm watch and dark skies to the west.  But hopefully it will hold off to shoot some fireworks. Hope you all have a good one!

Happy 4th to you, Honcho, and all the Fubarians! 

Off to daughter's place a little later for food and fireworks.  Oldest son just moved back to Houston from Florida, so my whole mob is all in one place for the first time in a long time.

Cooked a rack of ribs on the pit, Billie Sue made homemade yeast rolls, potato salad, and baked beans!  Had a nice little shower roll through, dropped .06" of rain, and dropped the temp about 25 degrees.

Heh, well we had about a 1/2" so far this afternoon and evening so far and still raining, had a tornado north of us that crossed the border, I never saw it.   We dropped about 25 degrees also, but we started at 80, coolest wettest spring / early summer I can remember.  Have to postpone fireworks until tomorrow.

I hope you got all the fireworks you wanted, Honcho. Someone around here made a trip to Wyoming with a few 18 wheelers. It went nonstop here in our corner of the Springs from 6 o'clock till 1 am here, starting right after a storm blew through with 1" hail. LOTS of hail. If this keeps up my pepper yield will be nil this year.

All considered it was a pretty great day. Met a bunch of neighbors and we now find ourselves in the Cimarron Hills Beer Share Network.

On to the next event!

Hope you guys had a good one.
Being retired, every day is a holiday for me.......just have to convince the wife of that, though....
