Howdy, Kathy.

You’ve had a beautiful day up there. Much prettier than yesterday, and MUCH prettier than we had today. Clouds, clouds, and more clouds. No rain though.
Comfortably warm with mid 70s. This weekend is going to be HOT. Last week and the week before we had below normal temps and by the weekend, we’ll be well above normal.

Thank you Kathy!

Start of the week is going OK, new welder starting tomorrow
Just have to pray this guy works out. Every welder seems to
have issues, addictive personalities, DUI’s, no licenses.

It’s pitiful really is. These guys can make good money but
blow it with drugs or alcohol. Maybe it’s just New York I dunno.

I spent 20 minutes in Hawaii. We had to wait for fuel so they let us off the plane onto a deck then off to Viet Nam.

Same here, late at night after 5-6 hours in a C-141 cargo hold.

The warm wind was very nice. Ended up living here much later.

A very pleasant good Tuesday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country and thanks Lauren for this morning's thread.

How's everyone doing this morning?

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

Lookin’ a little dicey in your area this early morning. I hope no storms are bad enough to knock out the power or make a big mess.

Were you and Gizmo able to head out for some fun yesterday?

It’s not just NY. My hubby has no use for welders. He says they are arrogant and want to work only when it suits them. Good luck with this one.

Hey radu!

Did you notice that all the storm chasers were in my “neighborhood” today? I recognized a lot of their roadways. LOL!

We got nada. GRRRR!

Howdy, luvie.

You’re still awake.

I figured you were modding Steve’s loooooong stream this evening and were burned out by now. LOL

Looks like you were lucky enough to miss out on the “fun” across TX today.

Well, right now we have a light rain shower here at the house. We slept through the whole thing last night. The storms alarm only went off once around 7 PM and that was it.

We had a great visit to Comanche Lake yesterday. Here are all the pics:

Hey there.

I didn’t get to check on the chasers until this evening and most were north of you then. Pretty wild-looking skies over there. I watched until they all quit streaming, then looked to see if Steve had something going, which he did. I started at the beginning and by that time he was almost finished, so that tells you how far behind I was.

I’m awake till the show I’m watching ends. LOL! I just didn’t want to not say hi before taking off.

I modded for a while, but the Twitter stream that took the place of Periscope only had an average of 15 viewers who didn’t chat. LOL! I was sooooo bored so I finally hopped off to watch some TV shows online.

I was thrilled to miss that stuff, especially the huge tornado near Sterling City. Thank goodness it was out in the open. We have lightning alerts, but I haven’t heard a peep from thunder.

How was your weather today? Any rain? Is it still cool?

Looks like you had great weather yesterday. Gizmo approved.

The radar made it look a lot worse there than it apparently is. I thought you were getting a pretty good dose.

You should mod at YT. They’re always busy and you wouldn’t have time to get bored. LOL

I did see the tornado near Sterling City. I didn’t see it ‘live’ but it was posted on the chaser site by a couple of chasers.

There’s a line of ugly storms not far south of you but it’ll miss you. Maybe that’s what triggered the lightning alerts.

Just another cloudy day here with no rain. Might get a little later today but we aren’t holding our breath.

I don’t know if I have the patience to mod there. LOL! The chat moves so fast, and there are so many trolls and just plain nuts on there, I’d be muting every other post. I also thought about modding on FB, but it’s very restrictive and I don’t know anyone who mods there, like I do on YT..

Anyhow....sorry you didn’t get any rain either. It’s frustrating. We do have a pretty high humidity right now. How is the....erk...cotton doing? I hate to wish for a bad year for your friend, but what was he thinkin’! LOL!

My show is about over, so I’ll say goodnight now. See ya tomorrow. Gotta figure out what to post.
