Very humid this afternoon. Hot earlier, but the storm front is cool. The nice part of the berm still has a buzzed top and shaggy sides since my plan to fix the lawn mower hasn't worked yet. I'm still at step one and too tired and dizzy from pulling on the rope to go to step two, whatever that might be. Maybe Bill is using the wrong word and actually means to suggest that I'm mechanically inept rather than irresponsible. Still absolutely wrong but much closer to true.
The rain started at 7:10. I almost thought about emptying my rain gauge today but it's really too late in the year to start doing that now. In a way that's what a local weather station is for but even though the monitor is about 2 miles away, we still receive different rain amounts, so it isn't completely correct to use those numbers for this place. I'll keep up next year.
