That's a lot of work, I know...

...but at least it's inside work, sitting at the keyboard.

You know about my adventures building a generator so Miss Emily can ride out hurricanes in air-conditioned comfort, but I spent yesterday ripping out and replacing rotten porch decking in the 96 degree, 100% humidity of the Deep South.

I note with amusement that Lipton commercials are now touting their iced tea as having some sort of "health benefit," so I should be brimming and rippling with good health since I drink it by the gallon in hot weather.

One of those earliest lessons I learned from "the old guy in the shop" was to always have a huge glass of strong iced tea handy to sip on.

I hear you.
Ice Tea with a slice of lemon.

It sounds like you got your work out today.
