I’m not sad that the heat wave is breaking with the thunderstorms this afternoon โ
While I don’t have air conditioning at home I’m no fan of the heat and humidity. Not great for sleeping ๐ด and all I want to do is lay by the fan. I also kind of wish I had more apple ๐ juice to mix with my ice at home. I guess water is healthier.

Out at my parents house for Sunday dinner ๐ and then I’ll do a quick hike up Bennett Hill later this evening, assuming that it’s not pouring out. If I was responsible I would go to the grocery store ๐ but I’m not but I have enough food to make do for at least a few more days.
While I felt find – minus allergies ๐๐ป especially outside yesterday at Five Rivers with the polen, I decided I should take a COVID-19 test before visiting my parents. First time ever for me – I was a bit concerned as many people in my office ๐ข and some friends lately have gotten COVID and my parents are quite elderly ๐ง now. It wasn’t pleasant to say the least ramming that swab up my nose – kind of hurt and tickled – but at least I was negative.
My parent’s neighbors big black diesel coal rolling truck๐ป has a decal on it that says, “Diesel smoke makes me horny”. ๐ฏ I love rednecks, though I don’t know, my big jacked up truck is kind of expensive to operate but at least it doesn’t blow $6.75 a gallon diesel out its stacks. I so idolize trailer trash, their ATVs, feeder cattle and pigs on their junk filled homestead. ๐ฝ Real life, not plastic suburbia.
Often I see these homesteading channels on the internet ๐ฎ and they are so perfect, free of mud and manure, blood and maggots that are sometimes just part of rural life. Trust me, I know what kerosene and hog manure smell like at times, and I’ve broken the ice in frozen water trays and even walked into work with chicken shit on my boots ๐ข. I am a dirty hick ๐จโ๐พand I love the dirty hick life.
Five Rivers Environmental Education Center ๐ธ yesterday was nice but it was hot and muggy. Not a lot of people or wildlife there. Still better than being stuck home. With gas prices โฝ so high I’m trying to avoid all non essential trips that I can avoid. Figure save the truck for when I’m heading out of town.
