For those using 5 gallon buckets for water, grab some 1 gallon bags, fill them with water, and freeze them. Leave a bit of room when you fill the buckets, and put in the big chunk of ice from the bags. They will not only cool the water for quite a while, but make more water as they melt.

Good morning, OF.

I put frozen water bottles in my plastic hanging drinkers. Then just swap them out as needed.

Good morning Old Folks. Not supposed to be as hot today. Yeh, 94 instead of 95ish.

I have laundry on the line. The relative humidity is 98%, so I don't know how or if it will dry. I'll give 5-6 hours, then bring it in and throw it in the dryer. Surely 1 or 2 molecules of water will have evaporated by then.

Good morning OF. Hey Sour, enjoy your AC.

That's exactly what I am doing. Early this morning I picked up some dogs that I have been training for a friend, cleaned a set of dog kennels and spread some mulch. Now I am chilling (literally and figuratively) and drying off. Very humid here today.

I'm steamed literally so a nap is in order to regrow some vital cells. I can't stay down to long with so many urgent jobs to complete.

Hey @sourland I just saw the most gorgeous beagle ever.

And no picture for @sourland? You are such a tease!!

And my oil pan started leaking oil. I was half way to the swap in Farmville. Truck full of chickens and goats. It was an ordeal. First time i used my hazard lights. I hope the repair bill isn't too crazy expensive.

That sucks but better an oil pan (if you stop before you seize the engine) than a head gasket.

Or a hundred have been added.

Good point! Definitely should have gotten one!
