Never had this many days of significant radiational cooling in a row since I’ve moved here in 2015. 

The conditions have also been so suitable to radiate that we hit the dewpoint before midnight and continue slowly dropping to sunrise. Overnight radiational fog has been a regularity right at the surface.

It’s a common desert phenomenon that sustains vegetation; it’s doing wonders for my young grass and grass seed. The vegetation around here generally doesn’t reflect the severe lack of rain thanks to this; it looks more mild to moderate…

Just had my lawn seeded, it's covered in straw, need to get it all wet but noticed what you just said, best time to grow a lawn.

Had a couple fresh lobsters my sister's friend caught today, hard shell already, seems early for hard shell but they were meaty.

Was going to overseed this weekend. So sick of Stein making me water the lawn the past few months. 

My lawn just got loamed, seed tomorrow, should be a good time to do it.

Cut it into rounds and load it on a trailer pulled by an ATV. Something that size I have to axe up to get it on the trailer.

Black locust?

Decent rain and a few rumbles, what do you expect 2 miles from the ocean.

Sad to see the hummers making their final preps for migration but always glad to be of assistance to the coolest birds in town. It’s a long haul across the GoM to Central America so every sip counts for the little speedsters.

Our feeders are filled too, fascinating birds, I love watching them.

Since it hasn't begun raining here yet, we've had only the ditty's 2 days of rain this month, though not on consecutive days.  Too young to have seen Johnny Sain pitch, but Spahn was a favorite with the big kick, deadly pick-off move and the best screwball since Carl Hubbell.  His 16-inning duel with Juan Marichal at age-42 might be the best such game since the dead ball era.

 

I have Johnny Sains autograph. He came to Febway as a coach of the opposing team, forget which team. I didn't know who he was when I was 10 but my father said go get his autograph.

Spotted lanternfly. Invasive species and seriously bad news for a lot of trees and crops. 

If you see one, stomp it.

When I was 10-11 yr old, I'd pull poison ivy vines off of trees and out of the ground as it had no effect on me.  Then I read that one could suddenly become susceptible and decided to be a bit more careful.  I got a very mild P.I. rash about a dozen years ago, but only after spending the morning pulling plants from the embankment behind the church parking lot - filled a 30-gallon garbage bag.

Another crisp autumnal day that started in the 40s.

They say 25% of people are not affected by it, 25% are very sensitive (me), and 50% are in between. One year I cleared my 350 foot stone wall of brush, wore gloves and long pants and a long sleeves shirt and still blew up like a balloon.

Enjoy the summer because it’ll be gone real soon. I’ve been getting over to Ogunquit Beach once every week or 10 days early in the morning to just enjoy the walk and soak in some morning sun. The good life.

You can dub one and get 200 yards with the current state if fairways.

Still good size waves at the Maine beaches, people are allowed to go in ankle deep, everyone i saw were waist deep.

Looked like on radar you were getting more.

Just a little light rain here, now it's dry.

Didn’t  pull it off. One day I noticed a red rash on my thigh. No idea when and how it got there.

We just had the yard sprayed yesterday for ticks and skeeters. (Sorry Dendrite). I'd like to be disease free.

We analplasmosis.

I missed your tick post, was it a small deer tick you had to pull off?

i had a tick bite on my hip and can confirm that it was definitely itchy and also got it checked out for that disease too i think the tick might have to be on there for a while in order to get that i guess maybe twenty four to forty eight hours not exactly sure

I've had 6 in me this year, one left a 6 inch black and blue mark on my ass,fortunate, didn't get anything other than an itchy ass.
