Another day in Paradise....

Full sun at dawn, starting heating up @ 10AM....up to 95 degrees by 3PM....then the thunderboomers moved in and it rained torrentially for about 45 minutes. Garden watered! Temps dropped 20 degrees and maintained thru 8:30.

Took this @ 8PM....



Things of note-

* Wine by Black Box
* Deck will be getting painted in July.....hasn't been touched since 2002. It's all pressure treated and in good shape.
* Railing is cedar and it is punked. Planning on removing and replacing with PT wood and bronze anodized aluminum tubes.
* Growing some world-class grass in the planter. Should reach out to the UMaine Ag Extension and see if they want the seeds.
* Have reached peek growth - I expect things to slow down going into July.

Another Glorious Day in Central Maine.

Blistering hot at noon. @ 90 degrees, for sure. Yet it stayed cool in the house because of of the cross-flow winds. I don't have an air conditioner and really don't need one. Thunderheads built up in the afternoon and I got a 15 minute deluge. Garden's watered! Cleared out, temps dropped 15-20 degrees and made for the perfect few hours on the deck.

One weird thing...except for tics, there are really no bugs that require Off. Spent 3 hours on the deck with no bugs pissing me off.

The Comey Rule - Netflix

Watched this limited series last night. Outstanding. Jeff Daniels as Comey, Michael Kelly as Andrew McCabe. Brendan Gleason as The Former Guy. Huge cast of excellent actors. Based on James Comey's book.

I have to say that I have a much better understanding of Trump's deep animosity to Comey. And Gleason portrayed Trump to a "T".
