Goodmorning everyone, well it's morning to me I ust got up. I took @Tidgy's Dad advice and on National Relaxation Day.
Here is a pic of my son Jim. With the biggest king salmon that we have ever put on the boat. Wish I was there but now he gets to be the proud captain. It was caught this morning on lake Michigan.

The Central Valley of California is having a heat wave. The power company will be doing rolling electricity shut downs. The temps, starting with today, are: 112,109,110,108,105,105,106,107,104,102,102,101,99 (F)

Our usual daily temps are upper 90's. And to top it off, it's partial cloudy, which means more humidity and the evaporative cooler doesn't work well.

Needless to say, I'm finished working outside for the day. I did 10 laps around the pasture, fed, watered and cleaned up after about 28 tortoises, hand watered about 75 potted plants, trimmed some branches over the walkway. I think I deserve to come in and observe the past two day's observances that I missed, right? What were they now? . . . lazy day and lazier day? yeah that's it! AND CHEESE!!!

Thanks I am sure my son is proud. That is a Master Angler fish for Michigan. When you fish the morning on lake Michigan you need to be on the water and putting lines out predawn. So that means you better get up at 4am.

Ooooh, she’s growing nicely. It’s raining here too, but just a light drizzle not anything terrible. Good to hear you‘re feeling a bit better now.

Wow, that is huge. I tried going salmon fishing once, caught some but not anything that big.

Normally I would feel bad for you, however, yesterday it was 97 degrees here in the lovely Willamette Valley of Oregon, and it is predicted to make it to the fearful heat over 100 today. When I went to open up the tort shed after church, it was 125 degrees in the shed, with a fan going and the window open. Yesterday with 2 air conditioners going it was 86 degrees in my dining room. And it's a road course today, Stock cars with 750 horse power going around sharp curves at 60. I think I'll have a nap
