AAAKKKKKK!!!! I am really tired of this wind!!!!! The wind blew hard all day yesterday, (gusts over 40mph), and even though there's a cold front coming through, (more than likely this morning), it's still supposed to be windy for the rest of today too!!!! On top of that, yesterday we were very close to the record high of 92 deg. and now they're forecasting a low tonight in the 40's!!!!!!

Jim had shut off my water heater on Wednesday, so he went out early yesterday morning and drained and flushed it while it was cool. There really wasn't too much "junk" in the tank, but it was good to get it flushed out.

The rest of the day was spent inside, fooling around with the computers, reading, taking a nap and watching TV, while Linda worked on her current embroidery project, got the budget caught up, took a nap and watched TV.

For dinner, Linda put together a nice meal of left-over steak, cauliflower and potatoes.

Oh, and the city workers were here in the park again yesterday, cutting down more ash trees. I don't know if they're done or not, because they're working way over at the North end of the park, and I can't see them very well from my site.

Did you know that September is "National Mushroom Month"?
