The Hogsty

Breezy and 83 right now. Heading for 98. I'm retired so this is Non-Labor Day for me. Not that I do much the rest of the week.

Well, didn't win the lottery last night...again. Did manage to get our yearly old folk flu shots. The temps are getting down to the mid 90's
with no rain in sight.

77-100, sunny NO rain, which we truly need.

I still keep a picture of my 2003 Heritage Classic { Matilda } on my office wall. Now and then I take a ride, in my mind.
Another 15 minute rain storm last night. 75-94 today.

I agree . A long morning ride on a lonely country road is more my style.

I regret never making it to Sturgis.

Good morning. A sunny 78-98 day
I always half-ass wanted to go to a Burning Man event. In my much younger days.

Cooling into 90's this week and a chance for rain. The desert is slowly getting back to livable again.

Good morning, A little rain last evening. By a little I mean 15 minutes. What I hate to see is clueless pet owners taking their dogs out of a car in a 110 degree parking lot and walking them across the super hot asphalt.
Cooler today , 98 high.

I knew rubber alligators as those chunks of semi discarded retreads.

We don't have slick roads from ice/snow here. In my riding days I had to watch out for the dreaded road snakes. those long asphalt crack seal lines that become slick in the summer heat.
Today is a "cooler' 98 for the high. Maybe a chance of rain by Thursday.

Good morning. Another dry hot day . Looking to repeat this pattern all next week. Mostly staying indoors except for early morning walks to keep limber. 82-118 today

Good morning. 82-103 today. I had my annual physical yesterday. Doc put me on a high blood pressure med. Otherwise doing good for an old guy.

Good morning. Another sunny, hot [101 ] day. I now have a persistent gila woodpecker that keeps trying to drain my hummingbird feeders.

No fires here. Just a lot of hot temps. 111 today. It's bad when you have to go out and water the cactus.

Good morning
79-102 today. Looks like little monsoon rain for us this summer. Today is my lovely wife's 72nd birthday
Taking her out for dinner tonight.

Good morning. Got back from Roatan yesterday A very good week of one of the best diving, snorkeling and seafood around, IMO.
Back to 85-101 temps. today.

Leaving in 5 hours for a week in Roatan. Temps today are 82-114.

I know it's a murder of crows and a gaggle of geese, What is a group of turkey vultures called?

Good morning.
Predicted to be 111 yesterday. Hit a record of 117.
Leaving tomorrow for a week in Roatan.
Getting out of this oven for a little while.

Fate?, luck? Who knows where life's wind will blow us. At least you had more time with him. He was part of the "Great Generation".

Good morning.
Back to the same pattern of 78-111, give or take a couple of degrees.

Good morning. I must have every dove within a 5 mile radius in my back yard. I have counted twenty plus. My finch feeder has a wire cage to keep the doves out, But the finches kick a lot of their expensive food out, which attracts more doves.
79-112 today.

I love the raptors. Hawks and owls are plentiful in this desert area.
Another 78-109 today.

Family story of my Great Grandfather. He had a farm in Indiana back in the 1930's There was a turkey vulture nest at the top of a dead tree on his property. One day he decided to climb the tree and see what was in it. Just as he reached the top old mamma vulture landed on the nest and puked all over ...

Good morning. Have to clean out my back yard fountain this morning. Getting pretty nasty looking. The local birds rely on it for a water source. 78-109 predicted for today.

Still dream about my riding days.

Good morning. Too hot [89] to go for a walk. Maybe go to the mall later, like a lot of folk around here, and get some exercise there.
A high of 106 today.

I'm locked out also.

Good morning. Another 78-101 day. Lots of hot sunshine. I would love to have another dog. But at my age it wouldn't be fair to the dog. Chances are it would outlive me. I really don't have someone who would want to adapt it.

Good morning. A good Tucson day, with a temp range of 77-101.

A nice early morning 74 out right now. That will soon change to a high of 108 today.
Eight tourists in Phoenix had to be rescued yesterday. They don't understand the heat factor in the desert. They take a 16oz bottle of water and try to do a 3 hour hike.

Good morning. Hit a high of 111 yesterday. Makes me want to go back to the east coast , where it's only in the 80's.
Today is a cooler 109.

Got back from my week long adventure in the Northeast. Weather was in the 80's and they were posting dangerous heat warnings

A toasty 105 today. No rain in sight.
Good to be home.

A cloudy 97 right now. leaving today for a flight to Pennsylvania and a drive to Delaware. Looking forward to a week on the beach and seeing my old stomping ground.

Good morning . A sunny 98 today,
If you want a very scenic route home. Highway 84 just north of Portland OR., off of Interstate 5 takes you along the Columbia River to Idaho.

Doesn't sound like fun. Tucson drivers are well noted for tailgating.
98 today and no rain

Copper River salmon and clam chowder
A cooler high of 97 today. Maybe some more rain tonight.

Lived in the Port Townsend area for 24 years. No place better , when the sun is shining.
We finally got our monsoon rains. It started around 7PM last night and is still going. Lots of thunder and lightning adding to the effect.
Temps are 78-94 today

The happy news du jour is my daughter told me a new grandchild is on the way, due about my birthday. Good present, hmm?

The lineage continues. Congratulations !

Good morning
A normal 100+ day yesterday. Then 30mph winds and rain for one hour in the evening. Typical monsoon pattern.
Today in mild and a high of 98.

Good morning. Another dry desert day. 89-101 today. Lots of little thirsty birds on the fountain.

How many times each day do we face potential danger because someone didn't do their job?
100 today with hot blue skies.

Good morning . Another 98-111 hot and sun day.

Morning. I wondered about an unexpected flat tire on an airplane, too. Neighborhood hooligans?

Harstine Island, 58 degrees and clear. High of 86 predicted. The house puppy, a very good little dog, has decided I am the bee's knees, so I am covered in scratches from her wanting to cover me in ...

Good morning. Well my week long trip to Delaware went bust. I will try it again on the 21st. I had a 5AM flight scheduled yesterday and just as we were lining up to board they announced the ground crew just found a flat tire on the plane. The flight was now postponed for 2 hours. This would make me ...

Good morning. 109 yesterday. The neighbors are having their tile roof underlayment replaced. The poor workers are starting at first light and make it to noon before the heat brings the job to a halt. Going to be over 100 for the rest of the week. I am heading to Delaware tomorrow for a week.
A ...
