    Tony,

    Oh I do those too, but evening for me is time in together. :)

    I do the QCWA CQ100 Net at 11am Eastern Time on Friday...but any
    other daytime nets are checkin by choice.

    Ahh cool. I did my usual 10AM checkin to the COVID-19 Isolation Net this morning on the link system, and got a local club net at 1PM on a local
    epeater.

    Shoulder pain (arthritis) and a nature call woke me. So, I took an Ibuprofen, and am doing the QWK Mail real quick, while I wait for it to kick in. We've got dense fog out there this morning from all the rain,
    so there's no point in going out until midday.

    Sunny here with a cool breeze.

    Arkansas is doing seemingly better than other areas, though.

    Good to hear.

    It stands for Digital Radio Enthusiasts...and the first word is in both acronyms. :P

    Hahaha :D

    Talk about giving one the finger. :P

    Literally! :D

    Well, severe weather and lightning keep me off the air.

    This is the time of year with the most stable weather here. :)

    More storms are forecast Wednesday into Thursday. Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, among other areas, were hammered again by tornadoes, etc. overnight. One supercell near Pickwick, Mississippi,
    had doppler velocity winds of at least 150 mph...and apparently, there
    was a debris ball on radar.

    And sunny with a light breeze here. ;)

    Checked into the DRE net this morning...weather is much quieter in
    the region today compared to yesterday. Portions of Oklahoma, Texas,
    and Louisiana, were again slammed by tornadoes.

    Didn't get the finger? ;P

    It'll be that here this afternoon, and over the weekend.

    Pleasant day today, managed to get the lawns mown. :)

    I resemble that remark. <G>

    Hahaha :D


    ... Hey Dad, are we gonna stop for ice cream? Can we, huh?

    That's the Digital Radio Enthusiasts Morning Net. I should have made
    that clear...although checking into a net with pileups is a real PITA.

    Pleasant day today, managed to get the lawns mown. :)

    The grass has really grown here, for all the rain and storms we've
    had here this spring. Some models are showing possible remnants of a
    tropical cyclone here next weekend.

    Hahaha :D

    When I get the urge to clean, I lie down, until it goes away.
    Then, I put "Get Well Soon" cards on the fireplace mantle, to
    make it look like I've been ill, and haven't been cleaning. <G>

    ... Hey Dad, are we gonna stop for ice cream? Can we, huh?

    I should've had ice cream cake and Dill Pickle potato chips.
    But, you'd wonder about me eating pickles and ice cream. <G>

    Still growing here, should be getting into the winter dormant phase, but I doubt that'll last long.


    ... AACCHHOOO!!! Darn! I see the idiots are in bloom again!
