There's a high pressure just west of you and a low pressure just west of that and the 2 of them are funneling moisture from the Pacific right to us. Our "monsoon" season. A little late this year.

Evening Woodrow's....
Just as I'm getting into PK today a ten point 140" class buck in full velvet comes screaming in front of my truck. He doesn't look, care or give a ****. This is the infamous 50 mph zone where I was doing 64, so cruise was set on 50.
I missed him by inches. I had rolled my window down and turned off the ac when I got to the lake because the cool lake air feels good, and I could actually hear his hoofs clickety clacking as he screamed by, he was that close.
I don't bowhunt anymore, but horns look good this year, however, folks feed the **** out of them down at the lake.

MN made it legal to grow weed, max of 8 plants allowed. But not outside, dammit, there goes the decorations for my raised bed planters.
Put new blades on the mower this morning and finished up last week's mowing. Been dry enough what had been mowed barely grew. Nearly all riding tractor style mowers use the same front axle spindle design, even JDeere, and they're so weak it's ridiculous. Just got a set of new ones from Amazon 3 days ago, good thing, when I got done mowing one had bent outwards so bad the left wheel was rubbing the frame with the right turned maybe 10 degrees, kinda forked maneuverability. I've had them off to unbend them before, but it must soften the metal because they got so bad they'd bend in a tight turn. Fortunately Amazon sells them in pairs at half or less the price for a single oem axle. I may try straightening the originals and welding some braces on them. Amazon sells hundreds of them, so it isn't just me.
Didn't quite reach 90, but the humidity encouraged me to put the mower back in the shed by 12:30 and start a movie with Olga Kurylenko. She has a nice behind, I'll finish it this evening.

It looks as if most of that stain was brushed in which is not normal. I've done that on borders but that is a work of art.
