Sun today here - but threat of some thunderstorms. At least we aren't dry, so lightning won't be an issue.

I'm sure we'll be seeing the results of those wildfires in our sunsets - you'd be amazed how far that smoke actually carries. We got actual smoke, at ground level, from fires in northern Quebec a few years ago. It was bad enough that people were reporting fires based on the smell of smoke and the glow of lights at night.

The diner isn't all that big - and the cooler (chocolate cake) and the hammock aren't all that far apart!

Time to get to work, and contemplate mowing the lawn when I get home. Just mowed the back yard Saturday, but I think the rain finally caused that fertilizer to kick in...

stay safe

Boy! It is a good thing I arrived when I did! This forum needs some straightening out.

1: It is flooding in Houston, which will help Colorado. The earth is round and just as soon as it spins around a couple of times, the water will run up to Colorado and put out the fires.

2: AZ is east of I-5 and nothing happens east of I-5......so those can't be wildfires almost in that canyon. In fact, there is probably no canyon - but we will never know.

3: This virtual diner is so big you will need a roadmap to find anything. Youse guys had better think about having a diner with an attached garage, attached movie house/electonics center/playground, an attached boat house for the virtual lake - well, you get the idea. So back to the drawing board. Meanwhile leave the diner small so CW and I don't get lost!

4: We are in the middle of global warming in the summers, global cooling in the winters.

5: This is exhausting - so will grab a big cup of coffee and go look for a familiar ankle with scars all over it. Going to be an exciting day - I feel it in my fur!

Good Tuesday morning, everyone! Cannonball, I'm still praying for you all to get some
of this rain we've been getting!! But my prayers aren't being answered.[:(] As a matter
of fact, we're getting thunder (not sure about lightning) as a type (speak).

Coffee is ready, and fresh juice is in the cooler.

Breakfast this morning is on the warmer bar: bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs,
hash browns, biscuits, sausage gravy; and in the cooler, cantaloupe slices and
watermelon chunks.

I'll be back when I get through with Produce; if I'm not back, could someone please
take care of lunch for me?

Can we get a theatre with a digital projection device for digital slide shows (and maybe a slide projector for a more traditional approach to sharing pictures)?

Perhaps set the room up like an obs car?

MC - You're right - Not enough hose here. I'm sure if you called her, my sister (lives in Aurora) would be glad to work the bucket brigade. Their favorite camping spot escaped incineration in the big fire a year or two ago, but everything around it burned.

Good eveing everyone well it's starting to cool off around here which is a good thing cause to tell you the truth. I'm gettin real tired of the hot weather and yea. I know we got aonther 2 months of it but anywho it should be nice around here the next couple of days with temps in the upper 60's to mid 70's with lower humitidy which will be a good thing. CW how did it feel to get some much needed rain down by you. I'm sure it felt pretty good huh. Anywho that's really bout it from this end hope everyone has a good night and I will be talkin to you all later. [|)][|)][zzz][zzz][zzz]

[cherokee woman]

Well, guess who got a storm, just about supper time. That's right: Mutt and I. In about
45 minutes, we a good 1 1/2 in. Lot of heavy rain, and wind. No hail around us, that we
know about. Reports of trees, branches and wires down all around us; but fortunately,
we didn't have that. Just a couple of branches down from your trees. Our large 90 gal.
garbage bin was blown half way across the front yard, along with the recycling bins.

Chris and MC, the wind gusts got up to about 60 mph. But we wouldn't DARE send you all
the wind: that would have made the fires out your way much worse!! And we don't want
to do that to you all.

[railfan619]

Good afternoon everyone how is we all doin fine and dandy. I hope well I had a good day I work for a couple of hours today which was not to bad.But anywho nothing new has much happened over here well execpt that we finally got some much needed rain around here yesterday and yes we did have some really nasty weather here in most parts of the state well execpt in the south eastern part of the state where.

Guess we could do one of the meeting rooms that way. If we name the room after your, can you get the virtual cash for the cost of the set up?

Jay

Sure...I'll just sell off a little bit of my virtual stock when I talk to my virtual broker tomorrow! [8D]

MC, did you really expect that the Denver media to know about anything east of E470? That's really more like an extension of Western Kansas instead of Eastern Colorado! [:0][(-D]

Good evening, everyone. Been a hot one this afternoon. Right now, we are under a
severe thunderstorm watch until 10 p.m. EDT. Wish we could turn the rain around,
and send it back towards Arizona and Colorado!!

Supper tonight: (Sorry MC): chicken drumsticks w/mashed taters & gravy, corn
and peas.

Dessert: still have cake left from yesterday.

Any of that extra water down your way sure could be used up here. Had a fire in Golden yesterday...that's getting a little too close to home...

Um ...Chris:

Local media reports on a "measley " 30 Acre in JeffCo and a 15,000 Acre fire near Holly goes un-noticed. (Yes that's five digits to the left of the decimal point)....Maybe Ed can ship the water up here in empty gons or hoppers[:D] I don't think Larry has enough hose to reach over this far.

This is gonna be a really long summer - weinies and marshmallows custom roasted by real Southeastern Colorado (nearly Kansas) real estate.

Are we getting an automatic hammock swinger? A snack machine with kibbles? A milk chiller? A warm spot in the sun with a comfy sofa to lie on? A beauty shop to do fur and nails? A fur store? Cosmetics store? Catnip shop? Jewelry store - ah - most important!

I love upgrades!

When I posted the plans, I didn't get into all the details, and everything you requested is already on the list. [:)]

Hi There: I just thought I'd drop in. I checked the BNSF web sight for infomation on the Chinese steam and there was none. Actually there isn't any way to check the location of a shipment. I'll keep looking and see what I can find out.

You may have to wait until Houston Ed surfaces for air. He may know approximately where they are.....

[JoeKoh]

playing poker with matt is kinda hard."Dad you got a lot of red cards with hearts." just north of us in michigan they are getting rain. I hope It dries out soon for Houston.
stay safe

[Mookie]

Randy - will you get Mutt and me a virtual license, too?

Poker - I am so there. I love to play! Have trouble with a poker face, tho! Keep wanting to smile and squeal.....

[rvos1979]

Afternoon everyone......

Had nasty weather up here yesterday, lots of tornado warnings, one was sighted near Stoughton (not again!!!), another one near Hartford took the roof off of an elementary school, and lots of rain again yesterday (not good for my dad, he replanted a field that flooded out, only to have the same thing happen again!!).

Had a good weekend in the free poker tournaments here in Madison, I placed 15th, 5th, and 12th in the three I played in, got enough points to get me entered in the final tournament on Thursday, too bad I have to work. Oh well, the last five games I've played in I have finished in the points, which is really good for me.

As soon as someone can get me the virtual plans, I'll see about getting the permits (which should be a lot easier in the virtual world) and line up the contractors to make the improvements.

See everyone later.

Just caught a snippet of the news on a company TV (Rockwell Collins has a couple tuned to the news channels up in the cafeteria); they were showing video of flooding in the Houston area- hey Ed, you staying dry down there?

[cherokee woman]

Hello again, all. Just got back from the library. Took one book back, and got Mutt and
myself four or five books each. Should take care of us for awhile.

Lunch today: macaroni salad, tuna salad, turkey salad (notice a theme here?), chips
or fries, and for dessert: leftover Happy Father's Day cakes from yesterday.

Well, had a very nice Father's Day - visit from daughter and all, and the weather was beautiful, if hot and muggy.

As for today, NWS just issued a severe t'storm watch, and judging by the weather radar, I'd better bring in the laundry off the line. Don't mind the storms, though, and rain is usually a good thing. At least it held off until after the weekend!

Will probably head south for some more train time next weekend.... For now, I have to see if I can get the dog in for her shots - it's that time again!
