Yeah. Kinda sux. But at least we don't have to shovel the runoff!

Yep, it's getting bad here in the panhandle too. The Jehovah's Witnesses are using kayaks to go door to door.

The rest of the country is enjoying “ riding season “… this time of year here in Florida is when I do my least amount of riding. If it’s not a “ tropical system “ dumping mass amounts of rain… it’s 100+ out in the sunshine..🤣.
Looking forward to Winter setting in and temperatures cascading down into the 70’s..🙀.
All we gotta do is get through Hurricane season. 🙄
Welcome to Paradise.

Everything is nice and green!
Grass is growing a inch a hour it seems.
We don't ride much July, August.
Will do a evening dinner then bridge ride on the weekends but that's it.

August is meant for “anywhere else”.

Left on the bike yesterday and headed as far away as possible for a couple of weeks.

Just in time for this weekend! At least it's keeping some of the heat down.

Been pouring here this morning.
I've had a house full of grand kids the past week.
Looking forward to kicking back in my chair enjoying peace and quiet all weekend.
Don't care what happens outside.
