The storms seem to go north or south of us, and when they do look like they will hit us, they either change course or dissipate. Tempos have been record breaking, too. Yesterday 101 with today predicting 103, and those are not heat indexes but the actual temps.<br />We drove out to a small town yesterday for dinner and the fields are all in drought mode, corn leaves are pointing up and curled inwards, although "making hay" has been good so far......I'm "assuming" the baling now is 2nd cutting, but not sure. If we don't get decent rain soon, there definitely won't be any 3rd cutting.MadCityMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14694682551650633240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-586234070021752416.post-1896672966199707292012-06-19T21:53:21.289-04:002012-06-19T21:53:21.289-04:00Oh, these took elbow grease also.

If I use the drill and wire brush, or the electric sander, I can count on having to take a couple days off from them to give my poor thumb a rest!<br /><br />Did you get the intense storms over in Wisconsin the last couple days? Judging from the water in a container on our back porch, I think we got almost 4" during two wild storms last night and this afternoon (6-18 & 6-19).<br /><br />I'm waiting for the humidity to drop a bit before getting a second coat of varnish on the wood.Jenny Bellairshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02412164662939663593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-586234070021752416.post-39953625539348529092012-06-19T12:20:27.954-04:002012-06-19T12:20:27.954-04:00Another wonderfully informative post.

You didn't mention this time about how much elbow grease was involved before the painting process, so I hope it truly was less than before?MadCityMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14694682551650633240noreply@blogger.com
