This past week has been the most unproductive since I can not remember when... I have just been puttering and not much of that. My clover seed is just about ready to combine so I am going to move in that direction. I think I will cut early in the a.m. and combine in the some what cool of the evening. What are you all doing in this hot weather? |

| Working on the cornhead. Will be a little corn to get. Work until noon, wife feeds me, take a nap, not that I am that tired, just want to dream of better days and I think the heat and dry make me depressed. Get up around 1:30 and go until my underwear elastic feel like it's around my ankles. If we can get some rain I think my energy level will skyrocket. |

| This morning (Saturday) a number of our club members got together to start getting the grounds ready for the Goessel, KS Threshing Days show in two weeks. Lots of mowing, trimming, fixing stuff, etc. Much nicer working Saturday mornings vs. during the week in the evenings. We were thinking that the nights are cooling off more than they did during last summer's heat; it doesn't get too bad until 10:00am or so. Unfortunately there is still a lot of work to do so we'll be doing some evening sweating the next few weeks. |

| Well as hot as it is I have been staying in the AC ad doing some canning. Done tomato's and jalapeno peppers and plan to do spiced apple rings today or tomorrow. I have also done a bit of work out side but spend 30 minute out then and hour in. This heat makes my legs hurt if I am up on them for long periods of time. |

| | My friend at the weld shop has been short handed as guys have been taking vacations. So in the last 3 weeks I have spent about a dozen days helping him. Nothing like leaning over hot piece of metal welding away when it's 100 degrees outside. If your not welding you can point a fan at ya. While welding the fan has to be turned away from ya so the welding gas will stay put. A few days I started at 6 or so then quit at one and came home and sat in the AC after a shower. Gary |

| I did alot of welding when I had my city job, I really enjoyed it until my coveralls got soaking wet with sweat, and I would get those mild shocks, and then again sometimes not so mild. |
