Thank you very much people!

ITS OVER!!!!! Its over!!!! Haying season is finally over. Baled and stacked the last two of the season today.

If you guys like looking at the planets, you may want to look at Jupiter this week. It's as close to us as its going to get for over a hundred years. Anything with like 20 power zoom and 50 mm objective will allow you to easily see Jupiter's four big moons. But lower power binoculars will still work. Happy observing.

@Hath you know better it never is it... time to plant the winter rye.

You would have been right last year, but I just sold that piece of property. It was too far away for me to manage properly, and we just were not getting a good return on the investment. One year 100+ tons and the next year if it didn't rain you would get maybe 10 tons.

To dry I take it

Ya. No irradiation. Just dryland. So if it dont rain your sol.

Finally had clear skies tonight. So I got to take a look at Jupiter. Only three moons visible tonight. The fourth is either behind or inline with the planet.

Also took a look at Saturn. Love seeing the rings.

Back from vacation. My cat keeps meowing any time he isn't touching me.

It has been an interesting couple of months.
My schooling has finally reached an end. It was impossible to focus. Now I have nothing to do...
Still trying to save the house. The bank officially owns it now. Loans are a no go for me. I have helped too many people the last ten years and put myself into too much of a hole to get out of. Now my only hope in saving the house is if my uncle that lost the house to begin with is able to make a deal to buy it back or if the bank decides to give the house to a disable veteran.... I am in the process of packing everything slowly and moving it to storage. I will probably be in my Jeep as soon as the bank gets tired of waiting to make a deal. I'm actually okay with that.
I've pretty much run out of reasons to keep anything going. My kids are grown and I am alone. I would never do anything to harm myself, but I don't have the motivation to try to do anything. Anything that relies on other people is doomed to fail. I will still be around in some capacity.

ROTFL!!!! Man, that was great Terra. Thanks, I needed a good laugh.

@Majestic hey man I heard that it's raining cats and dogs down your way. Or is that kangaroos and wallabies? lol
Anyway, do you have any flooding? You doing alright?

Thankyou kjc that made my day! The look on that cat's face is just too good! That Owlkitty clip is the best thing I've seen in a while!!!

So far as I can tell, the latest launch date for Artemis 1 is this Wednesday at 1:04am EST (6:04am GMT).

 

[Terra_Inc]

Let's hope for a safe and successful launch!

 

[Chiletrek]

Hello:
I agree, it has been delayed a lot for a lot of different reasons, so let's hope the mission will finally go as intended.

 

[Hellkite]

Hello:
That is horrible! And don't worry about us because we will all be here for when you get back. I hope your daughter will be fine soon.

 

[Hath]

I'm sorry to hear that HK. I hope your daughter will be alright. Don't be afraid to be her PAPA BEAR. If it was my kid I would be heading her way at a high rate of speed.
Are you Ok? If you need someone to talk to or just vent to let me know.

 

[Terra_Inc]

That is terrible. Take as much time as you need to be there for your family. What a nightmarish event to go through.
