  1. I have daffodils growing and can't wait.
  2. 76 and lots of stupid wind. Yes, winds like this are stupid. Winds like this aren't stupid in Aug.
  3. 69 muggy degrees out with hella wind already. vacuuming the truck and it takes no time for sweat to start
  4. Looking forward to the warm temps. Not looking forward to the dumb winds.
  5. Dang. That’s cold. 26° here. But that’s chilly for us who are near the equator
  6. Ah....that water tower. I wonder if they have done some other things around it now that I heard was in the works to improve things. Falls Church really screwed things up for years.
  7. Another chilly morning. 33°
  8. Still an impressive cold drain after daylight. Was 37 at 6am and now just dipped under 35. 34.7/30 now
  9. 76 IMBY. Feels so awesome. Driving in the truck, windows open, tunes playing. Gonna grill later too
  10. Think about what? I’m on a quest for peace with you.
  11. Been out running errands. At least its a lot less windy today
  12. These dumb winds need to go away
  13. Temp dropping 10° since 6am
  14. 61° here. Very little rain. But puking winds tho
  15. Should have followed up on this from before. Snyders place and many others in that area are totally built on silt build up over the years and I'm sure that ground is crap to build on. pilings to keep the ground from sliding more and caissons to give the house some solid footing. I bet that thing moved when the quake hit due to liquification. Your hood just sits in a bowl of the lower Fx Co area where Huntley Meadows and Dogue Creek drain into. That whole area is just low. Elevations aren't great so its a huge wash down spot. The underground hydraulics have got to be unreal and that's why that big drainage ditch runs thru your hood. My spot is crap tho for different reasons. Its built on this awful gravel and clay and dirt. Dig anywhere in my yard and you hit rocks and stones and pebbles and pain. Been replacing fence posts for the last year or so and every hole dug is an exercise in pain and agony. I wish I had dynamite to save the time it takes to dig. My 187' elevation is a result of some dumb mountain eroding into the worst ground ever.
