What do you call it when a chameleon can't change colors anymore?

A reptile dysfunction...

Picked up .6" yesterday evening, came with a little hail, but I'll take it. Mostly were in the seam between cells, which was a good thing, I read reports of 2 to 3" in just minutes, had flash floods crossing highways and county roads, people stranded, large hail and tornadoes. Most a little east of us, but a couple were west.  I was watching radar reports of estimated rain fall rates, some of it was in the 20" per hour area. 'Tis the season I guess.

Hit & miss t-storms today. First hit was a very quick 9/10s inch.

When the sun shines again they claim it'll feel like 103°.

We hit 101 for most of the afternoon yesterday, sun was intense.  We get a break now, today will be low 80s, maybe mid 90s tomorrow, then 80s for a while and chance of thunderstorms.

I cut about 5 acres of hay, made 1 1/2 round bales, had to rake 3 windrows together, and still was grinding it up rolling in the baler almost as fast as I was picking it up.  Not good.  Some will be better, but worrisome for sure. 

At least the cloud cover here is keeping the temps down, but the humidity is off the the charts.  It stayed dry enough today to get the yard done, but it's still pretty soupy on the east end of my back yard.  87 here right now.  Rain should be moving out and we'll be in the mid 90s next week.

Damn, you getting a regular homestead going there!  For a second, I thought the little fence thing was your outdoor shower....  

Staying busy always helps keep your mind off things.  Sorry you have to be going through all this, amigo.  You know you can shout at me any time.

I have a whole garage full of RC stuff.  Not nearly as many props, though. 

and more

Stettos been busy

I'm getting more established here in Harwood every day. They have me mowing with the Kubota dragging a brush hog and I've stomped a half dozen scorpions so far. I borrowed some lumber from the lord of the land and built myself a porchlette, 44 by 91 inches. It fits...I'll see if the Honcho will post pics.

100°, sheesh!

It's that time I guess...we're getting consistent 90° here, with a 10th inch of dew every morning. This next week they're jacking it up to mid nineties, my first full summer in Tejas should be epic.
