Well, this weekend heading up to Pennsylvania for a family function. My son's birthday is on the 24th might do something with him then, but he may be coming down here in a week or so to collect his truck from a garage that has been working on it.Now he will have two working trucks, not sure why he needs two, as there is property tax on both..have to get them inspected etc.

August kind of sneaked up on me and can't believe it's only a few days away. Getting away for a few days sounds great if you can swing it. Certainly sounds like way more fun than painting a fence,

It's too damn hot here in Florida to really do anything, unless I wanted to hop on a plane and go the North Pole or something. So, honestly, I have zero plans for August other than just work. Any time off from work will be spent inside the cool air conditioned house.

I think you might just find that the North Pole is not as cold as you would expect it to be 22C is quite common in July

August is almost here, and it sounds like you've already decided what matters most—another couple of weeks away! After spending so much time painting fences and gates, I don't blame you for wanting a break. Those jobs will still be there when you get back.

Many plans have been postponed in previous months so maybe they can be done in August. The beginning of August is to make a sturdy clothesline pole.

If the weather continues like this with temps going into the 90s and my PC telling me it was really hot outside by thoughts are like in the that song Shout, Shout Knowck Yourself Out but that would not help me much, So I will stay in my cool workroom by the AC and fan and write up a storm,

I think Sandra that staying cool is the key. I am finding it difficult to do that and we don't have it as hot here as you do over there. Good luck with staying cool
