Heat

                                                          There is a heat wave forecasted for this week, temperatures that will approach 100 degrees, which will render out-door work seriously unhealthy, and for an old man in his early 70's,,  prohibitive .   The time for out-door activity will be in the very early morning from around 5 to 7 o'clock ,  the time I usually write blogs .  I still may write if conditions around the Globe demand attention, but otherwise, I will be on a mini-hiatus .

                            The Heat drives grass and turf into a sort of dormancy where growth is interrupted, grasses are generally NOT Heat Loving but WEEDS and the like know no such restriction, indeed, some  FLOURISH .  

                             I LOVE the Heat because of its INTENSITY .   Few of Us have seen gasoline BOIL when poured into the cell of a chainsaw because of the Heat, I have, many times, "IT" is the Nature of the Business , ya still gotta eat, so you still gotta work, "That's just the way it is" ,   but I was younger then, I'm so much older now .  

                             I have rock moving work to perform, here, I can sit on my old-man's-flat-ass and go SLOWLY .   I love going slooooooooooooooowly .   Fortunately the rock and stone that must be moved rest in the shade, once the Sun swings around, so,,, there's THAT .

                            This morning I have concrete work to execute, I love concrete work, there's NOTHING like it as far as Satisfaction is concerned........... .

                            To all my Gentle Readers, "Tare Forward" .
