They will only be here 2 days working, so a porta potty is not really feasible. As for the bathroom, I would prefer that they not come in the house, but I also try to be a decent person. We have a bath that is immediately inside the door to the garage, so we shouldn't have people wandering around the house. I often get work crews Gatorade, water, and after work beer since I try to be a decent person.

101, heading for a high of 105. Feels like 111.
April and May are our hottest months. Come Thursday a high of 86. Almost sweater weather.
Come on down Velo Vol!

A fast current up there is about 1.5 kts, so not a huge factor. Low tide at that point was at 0235 this morning, so there was probably a sluggish ebb, maybe just enough to set them into that support. However, I think it's it's also possible the steering failed with the rudder off neutral.

Yessir. The ship put out a mayday I heard, which gave them a short window to cut traffic. Watching the video, I saw the ship heading towards the bridge, and a tractor trailer on the span. Hard to look away, but the truck made it.

Whirlwind of a day here. My boss (dept head) out on vacation so I'm having to make a bunch of final approvals for EOQ billing and deliverables. And then someone on my team just put in a two week notice... Lots going on.

Recently, several commercial flights went supersonic for a while, because there was a strong jet stream pushing them along. Supersonic ground speed, that is.

That could be my sister who lives in Florida now. She's one of those who puts on a sweater when it gets down into the 70s.

My Neurosurgeon gave the ok for me to have the high frequency spinal cord stimulation procedure. He also gave 1 Doctor recommendation though I asked for 2. He was quick to respond and seems like a guy that looks out for the best interest of the patient. Now I have to make decisions. I could be a few months away from relief. Not everyone responds to the procedure.
