House Arrest

 With all this hot weather, I've been staying indoors a lot more than I usually do in the summer - sort of like being under house arrest. I was going to go out on my bike the other morning and there was fog. I took that to mean the humidity was more than 100%. Yesterday it was raining in the morning, which we definitely needed. Afterwards, of course, it was like a steam bath, and then it warmed up to 90 degrees. I went out about 5:30 and finished a little bit of mowing I didn't get done Thursday due to rain. After mowing I did some yard work, and I worked up a proper sweat.

Everything this spring has been growing like crazy. All of the Magnolia trees have seed pods on them - I think that's a first. Growth has slowed down since it's been dry lately, but we got some rain and more is forecast for the first of the week. I just need the temps to cool down a little so I can be more comfortable while working. That, and the Missus worries about me working in the heat, just like she does when I'm shoveling snow, God bless her.

Coach Jen sent me a photo of a weight rack wondering if I could make one like it. I'm sure I can, just need a little more detail - don't need any more work, but what are friends for, right?
