This storm had to dump at least an inch of rain in 15-20 minutes; it was a deluge. Side street is a river.
NWS just posted a flood warning for DC/Alexandria/Falls Church/Arlington/Eastern FFX counties in NoVA.
Oh yeah, we’re loving every minute of it! Have a great time there, hope you packed your boots and cowboy hat!
66 and partly sunny after a low of 56. Happy 4th y’all!
57 and partly sunny in Deep Creek - a bit chilly but good to get some yard work done to get the house ready for the 4th. We’re hosting my family for the holiday (through next Thursday), including 5 kids under the age of 10. Thank God for booze.
Those two quarterfinal games yesterday were epic - so happy for the Swiss with that hard fought comeback after missing the PK in the 1st half (and France turning right around and tying it).
England/Germany today!
It’s time to ban these loud mufflers that people put on their cars and race them through side streets. It’s like WTF are you doing with your tiny Corolla or Civic having huge exhaust pipes. They are so obnoxious and seem to be getting worse and worse especially with the side street racing.
Oops, I do this if its super torrential rain, especially on 68 heading to Deep Creek where its a bunch of semi trailers, curves, and hills....except I'm in the right lane doing it.
76 with partly cloudy skies here in McHenry. Pretty perfect day to be on the lake.
got a bunch of landscaping, etc done this morning too. Lots of my perennials just don’t like to come back here…I guess it’s the rocky soil.
Good looking plant. This is the first year for me having a vegetable garden and I’m shocked by the rapid growth of the cucumber plant. I put one of those plastic ‘box’ trellis around it that you can add height to over time. I have almost 5 feet of trellis around it and it’s up to the top already. It basically grows like a weed, its crazy.
