    I am kind of a weather geek, kinda had to be with front passes and wind shifts etc. Today the heat dome is pushing north I am on the edge watching the radar then going outside you can see the wind shift, you can watch the front go thru, so cool to me. You can feel the temperature change as the low pressure front gets pushed north and around.

    Yesterday and today were a blessing (cool temps)

    Tomorrow and the next in the 90s.
    Was so refreshing wearing a long sleeved shirt past 2 days.
    Now back to "Swass"

    Been a day over a year since I have drank a soda of any sort. Probably under the age of 2 since that's happened.

    I'm wired to always be thinking ahead. It's in my nature, but it's exhausting sometimes and takes away a lot of the living in the moment pleasure a lot of people feel. I was deer scouting the other day and after kayaking and walking in the cool morning, I realized I hadn't thought of anything beside the here and now for an hour or more. Brain felt 10 X lighter. Bring on deer season.

    Got a call from a rep today asking me to come to Colorado to a conference to meet with a couple engineers that are specifying the competitors equipment. Well every solid waste conference kicks off with a golf tournament, turns out the 2 individuals work for the same consulting firm and are avid golfers. Bragging rights, golf tourney turns out one of my reps is a retired PGA pro he managed a course in Arizona and is qualified for the senior tour. I sponsor the golf team they win we go out for dinner have cocktails and game set match. Plus they are getting a superior product, stainless steel vs HDPE.

    Finally, after 15 years, I beat the critters.
    Some years I get lucky and get 1.
    Went on a mission a bit ago. Feels like I hit the lottery.

    Wife was over at the farm with the boys this morning, grandson decided he wants breakfast at the lake but insisted that he makes pancakes with grandpa. That is what keeps me a happy man.

    Youngest grandson went through his surgery with flying colors.
    Thank you one and all for well wishes and prayers for both of them.
