Start to my weekend..

I don't know how you guys can drink that hard cider. It's an atomic gut bomb for me. Dunno why because almost nothing messes with my stomach... except that stuff. I can drink regular cider or mulled cider by the gallon but a bottle or two of hard cider will leave me rolling around on the ground in agony about half of the time. Too bad because some of them taste pretty good.

I had the day off and had planned on getting caught up on yard work today. But after about 3 hours of rain I got a daily reprieve. We are enjoying the cooler temps these next few days. As I get older it seems a little harder to acclimate to the heat.

Enjoy your refreshment and cigar. Sounds like you have earned and deserve both!

That's no kidding on the heat. I was up at the farm brush hogging in the old John Deere this weekend. She's enclosed and the AC is not worth fixing for a 40 year old tractor. It may have been cooler, but I was still sweating like a fat boy at a free dance...

Wow, you have a green motorized sweat box? Some kids get all the cool toys!

If you want a "turn", you're not that far away....

One of these days I may take you up on it. In the meantime I will practice on my 31 year old Wheel Horse garden tractor/lawn mower. Neighbors laugh at me in the spring when it takes me 20 minutes to mow the yard. When it hits 100f, they don't laugh as much. I always figured they were laughing at me, but MAYBE they are laughing at my mower. Those bastards!

I just know if you need a good old dose of bustin' your @$$, it's available....

I love ciders. Started out with Hornsbys and couldn't find them when I moved from the east coast home to the midwest so I have tried a number of different ciders and Angry Orchard is popular enough I can get them while I am out to dinner around here.

Have you tried Strongbow or Stella Artois Cidre?
