Hi Shawn,


 RH> Doing much better this week, took the camper in for the needed repair
 RH> work today. Insurance should cover most all of that. Meanwhile, temps
 RH> have cooled off a bit but we're still going to be doing a lot of
 RH> grilling. It's nicer to add heat to the outside air than to heat up
 RH> the house. (G)

 SH> Yes the heat broke here too last night.  I can actually move this
 SH> morning without being bent over like an old man.

We have a yard service; he'd not come in about 3 weeks and the grass was
beginning to dry out. Steve did some watering and now the rains have
come (some, most days, a lot today). The lawn had perked up and was a
nice green when he came on Monday. With the rain, it's almost as high as
it was just before it was cut.


 SH> I'm going to head to the woods after work today... I'm hoping to do
 SH> some grilling this "weekend" but we have so much going on with getting
 SH> the apartment ready for our Son and my FIL to move in, I may not stay
 SH> long.

Some time isbetter than none. Are you planning to move out to the woods
on a long term basis?

We bought a chicken from Sam's Club and Steve grilled a rack of ribs
late last week so we're eating off of them, reheating as desired in the
microwave. Right now the temperature is only 75; I could almost bake
something in the big oven without heating up the house too much. I think
we'll work on left overs tho. (G)
