A good news/bad news day, gang.
Charlie - thanks for the update on DrWayne. Always a very talented modeler with a great sense of humor.
Jim - glad to hear you are on the road to recovery.
32 this morning in the remote reaches of northern Iowa. Low 40s for a high today. 19 is the currently predicted low for Saturday morning. Almost like winter.
Speaking of winter I did my share yesterday in delaying the start of that season. The summer toys are put away and the winter toys are readily accessible. I changed the oil on the show blower, greased it, filled it with gas, and test ran it. Still starts on the first pull after 27 years. Now I need the rest of you to take similar winter preparation steps to ensure that winter (or at least the snow) is delayed as long as possible.
Only item written in pen on today's to do list is a trip over an hour south for a basketball game for one of the great-grandsons. Items in pencil are a trip to the gym and maybe some leaf herding.
Gas continues to drop - down to $3.75 yesterday when I was out and about.
All stay safe.
Tom
