                 Good morning ER's,
                          It's 38* and partly cloudy.
                          Wally.............It looked a little chilly out there but I'm glad you had a good day.
                          Eddie............ I'm glad you got to wet a line and land a couple.
                          H2l................I hope you had a good time at the banquet, and your filet was cooked the way you like it.
                          Steve.............Damn the scammers, they have really put some crazy ones out there, thanks for the warning.
                          Fish...............Sou nds like you got some good deals at the feed store.
                          Yesterday there were 5 of doing the cleanup at the association and we got it done by 2 pm. So I have today off.  Wearing a backpack blower
                 doesn't bother my shoulder, it trying to lift things does.
                          I hope everyone has a good Sunday either at work or out. Stay Safe and Healthy.

Good Morning Everyone,
  Light rain has just about stopped and 42* at the moment, high of 74 today.

  Wally…I didn’t get out on the streams yesterday, but got a good number of my to do list completed…even put the snowblower away a few days early!    Maybe this afternoon if the rain holds off.
  Jeff…sounds like you fellas had a good day working together yesterday. Hopefully the rain holds off for most of the day if you have some outside work you want to catch up on. 
  H2…glad the dinner was good at the banquet, sorry you didn’t score on any of the cash prizes though…next year!    There will be a lot of happy boaters and fishermen now on the reservoir.
  FH4…will be looking forward to hearing how the new toy works for you all.    Good luck with the walleyes if you’re heading out today!
   Steve…excellent news on your Great Aunt, best wishes continued for her moving forward!     Thanks for the update on the EZ Pass scam, wish they could catch these criminals.
  Bud…hope all is going well down at the farm!   
  Dave….only about another month to go until vacation starts!! 

  Went to Home Depot yesterday to get a new mulching blade for my walk behind and check out a few other things. Of course they didn’t have the blade I intended to buy in stock that was advertised, but they did have the most expensive one, lol. Checked out grass seed and fertilizer while I was near that department….holy smokes! Found what I thought was a bargain compared to everything else for some grass seed to fix a few bare spots. Turns out it was just for temporary
grass, lol. I’ll let the weeds do their thing, they grow good here!  Cawfee’s on….
  Have a great day all, be safe, best of luck to those fishing!

  Good afternoon ER's the storms missed hear thankfully. Condolences to those who lost family/friends. Drifter enjoy your vacation/2nd job. Wishing all with med stuff a full recovery. Congrats to all who are out fishing and getting fish. Bud update on the Trap cover I put in some time cleaning it but put it aside good thing to because I went to fishing sale late but still found 1 item a new trap cover for 20.00 bucks and with my 5.00 off coupon 15.00 plus tax. Mother is still doing good at memory care. Hope summer is comming soon. Hope all have a great day.

Hit the lake and caught one walleye on the first pass. Boy reeled that one in and then picked up my buddy and fished the area again and nothing, moved and no bites and then the wife hear thunder and wanted off the lake. Took her back amd we went out and tried to jig a bit and caught a carp. Wind moved in called the wife to back the trailer in and rain and hail and loaded up. Waited for the rain to lessen and then got gear loaded and headed home. Hit another good storm before getting home. Nice day and good to fill the tug.

Good evening, rain over night which cleared out in the morning hours leading to another nice day with a high near 75 degrees. A brief period of rain this evening. Looking at ten day forecast chance of rain for most of this coming week. My prayers for those in Oklahoma and other western states affected by the recent tornados. Receive a message from one of my great aunt's nieces all still good with the exception of her getting limited sleep due to back pain from a fall she apparently suffered sometime before her surgery. She has an appointment this week with her local cardiologist who will pass on his exam results to the NYC doctor. Hopefully she does not have a fracture in her back.
Hunts2long glad you enjoyed the bowling banquet. Sorry to hear about Rocky's run in with a skunk. I forget to mention yesterday gas prices here in New Windsor $3.50 to $3.60 per gallon of 87 octane. I drove passed the Sunoco station in Washingtonville on my way to lacrosse game they were charging $3.79 for 87 octane. Only about a 6 mile distance from New Windsor to Washingtonville. I think the Sunoco is only station in the heart of village.
Ice wanderer always people finding a way to cheat other out of their money and now make additional dollars off of them by selling their personal information over the internet. glad using the backpack blower caused no shoulder discomfort hopefully something can be done to increase range of motion and strength that does not require more surgery.
Wallyworld may it have been a pleasant day for the two of you.
Eddie good to read you are knocking items off of the to do list. It seems like you see an add and when you get to store the item is sold out or out of stock to often these days. May the mulching blade you purchased do the job for you.  If you do not mind them smart thinking on letting the weeds cover the now bare spots in your lawn.
Old Goat good to hear your Mom is doing well. glad the storms bypassed your area. Nice find on the fish trap cover.
Fish/hunt4ever nice you got a fishing trip in and had some action. glad you got off the lake before getting caught in the storm.

A good start to the week wished for everyone.

                 Good morning ER's,
                             It's 44* and some morning fog here on my hill.
                             H2l............Give Rocky a bath in tomato juice, it will cut the smell but if he has any white on him it will be pink.
                             Eddie.........What a change in the weather yesterday, sky cleared up and no clouds until around 3 pm.
                             Wally.........What a beautiful day for a bike ride and ice cream yesterday.
                             Fish...........Way to go getting out and landing a couple.
                             OG.............I'm glad to read that your mom is doing well
                             Bud............Coffee is a good way to get the pick me up.
                             Steve..........I hope your great aunt doesn't have anything seriously wrong from the fall.
                             Yesterday turned out to be another guessers fake news stories. I got some more things done here.
                             I hope everyone has a good Monday either at work or out. Stay Safe and Healthy.

58* cloudy, looks like some rain overnight..

Mr. C, the phone company I worked for after I retired had some equipment and customers down in that area so got to see most of those small towns like Washingtonville, Monroe, etc. Nice area.

Saw a couple boats out on the lake yesterday.

The steak was done just the way I like it.

Not much planned for today, have to take the Jeep in for an oil change Tuesday morning.

Hope everyone has a good day and be well....h2l

[wallyworld]

Morning all,

IW.....glad you were able to check a few more things off the to do list 

H2L....looks like some nice weather for the walleye opener this week 

MrC.....prayers your aunt didn't do any serious damage to her back 

Eddie.....I have a LOT of pretty yellow "flowers" in my lawn I'd be glad to give you to cover the bare spots 

FH4.....always "fun" trying to beat a storm to shore 

OG.....good to hear your Mom is doing well 

IFF.....hope you and your daughter get some water therapy time while she's visiting 

Since the weatherman said no rain until 3:00 yesterday afternoon and the sky was cloudless, we packed a little picnic lunch and hopped on the trike around 10:30. Within a 1/2 hour the clouds started rolling in  Stopped by the lake around noon to eat and watched the sky get darker, checked the radar, rain starting around 2:30  Pulled in the driveway at 1:15 as the rain was starting to fall  Looks to be about 1/2" in the rain gauge this morning 

Have a good day. Stay safe, stay healthy.

Good Morning Everyone,
  Cloudy and 60* on the Hill this am, high of 64.

  OG…glad to read your Mom is doing well Sir!       I see you still have the knack of finding some awesome deals, keep up the good work!   
  FH4…glad you made it out and avoided the skunk! Glad you didn’t get caught way out on the lake when the weather turned bad.    What was the water temperature up to?
  Steve…add my best wishes for your Great Aunt, hopefully it’s just a pulled muscle or something minor.    Gas prices have been pretty steady in the mid to upper $3.70’$ here..seems like forever.       Once again, glad we’re not out in California!

  Jeff…it was a beautiful day yesterday for working outside other than the black flies which were out again for awhile. Did you have a problem with them yesterday?   I fired up the grill in the afternoon and just before cooking the rain moved in, just my luck!   
  H2…only 2 days to go until the Walleye opener!!  Weather permitting, any plans of heading out?   
  Wally….if it wasn’t for all those pretty yellow flowers I would have lots of bare spots!!!     Sorry your ride yesterday got cut short with the weather, better days are coming.

  My sons made a trip to a trout stream they’re very fond of yesterday and crushed them. A double digit day for both with lots of pictures and a few videos they shared with me. Bragging rights went to my youngest son Stephen again landing 6 more than his older brother. They sure love the comradery and competition…..
  Not much on the planner yet….Cawfee’s still hot!
  Have a great day all, be safe, best of luck to those fishing!

Water temp was 51 to 53 degrees, went down with the rain and cold weather on Saturday as my buddy was out Wednesday and he said it was around 55 to 57 and went down to 51 the higher in the lake he went.  Hopefully getting out sometime this week if the weather and work cooperates.  Busy day at work again, looks like by myself again for most this week. Looks like everyone is doing good, hopefully everyone gets out and enjoys some of the outdoors.  Have a great Monday.
