Cold and rainy last night.....  somebody didn't go out before bedtime, so at 3:30am where up and at 'em.  Coffee is simply fantastic, about ready to brew pot #2.

If nothing else, this is a good time to check on some remote client sites  LOL

Good morning Dennis. It's just starte draining here now. Now I have to convince kobe that it's a good time to go out before it starts raining harder. Just turned coffee pot on.

Morning Willie.  It rained here for hours yesterday.  Just a nice steady rain nothing heavy.  Not quite 3/4 of an inch in total.  Warming up for the next few day too, highs in the upper 50's.

I've noticed the older Billy gets, the less likely he is to go out when it's raining.  The only exception being when we're going away.  I think he would brave a monsoon to go for a ride.  LOL

So would Kobe. He's sleeping in right now. So like they say" let sleeping dogs lie" I will. In the meantime I'll get more coffee. |^|

Good morning Jon. Finished my coffee which was very good, walked & fed Kobe, now the fish are left. It's only 7:00 am and I feel like I've accomplished a whole lot already. lol

I never make a full pot. I put in water just shy of the 8 cup line and it puts out 6 cups of coffee. For that I use 3 level scoops or 2 heaping scoops. Folks tell me my coffee is strong. Taste just right to me. I drink my coffee black with no sugar.

My scoop is pretty big. I can probably put a few spoonfuls in a scoop.

...guy came by that's going to put the small shed on the adjacent lot...we're going to increase the size just a little and put an awning over the whole 1/2 of the lot that has concrete....he'll get materials today and start Thursday...Lucy will be able to have a place to do crafts once the shed is up....

...in a little bit another pal is coming over and we're going to put up LED light ribbons around the interior of the deck...He brought them over last night ans we plugged them in and they are going to put off a lot of light and we'll have remote controls for them for color and pattern changes....
