Mornin’ kids ️

Sorry to have missed chat. We have an exceedingly busy household these days

Humid AF today. Think it’s time for the Greenhouse Gals to get tomato caged.

Speaking of cars, sounds like Miz Chiz is going to upgrade to an Ioniq 6 this fall. My Father In Law bought it a few months ago and decided he wants something different He went ahead and ordered an electric BMW so when that arrives, the 6 is coming our way. That family is weird, but I’ll take it.

Exciting! I noticed the 6 is gone from the Hyundai website. I'm getting the itch for a EV, but we can't have two ioniq 5's.

has the ev6 been canned too? I only see the 2025. I'm pretty interested in the BYD cars coming here from China. The Atto 3 looks pretty good and is going to come in under $50k CAD for the long range version.

Apparently in Canada the 6 is taking a gap year and will return in '27. In the US it'll just be the 6N sport model moving forward (Hyundai that is)

I'm not gonna complain about a free new car. It's technically my Wife's car, though candidly, it's our primary vehicle these days because gas is so unpredictable.

Hey, I'm here! Very damp but here. I just finished 18 holes in the rain. Have determined my rainshirt now leaks at the seams. Boo. Only 15 years??? Do better, Footjoy!

Looks like Kia moved production of the Soul and Ev6 to the US.

Back from my river side drive today. Actually was a beautiful winding road, always drove on the other side.
Had a chance to stop at the arboretum for a hike n puff. ( guess where I got higher, lol)
They specialize in American Chestnut and collecting old apple varieties that were thought extint.
Find them at old farms and homesteads, track them down from history books etc.

Probably where Steven King hangs out.
It's the old state insane asylum work farm, lot's of old reservoirs, cisterns, haunted foundations.

World's largest spinning globe.
1,ooo,ooo : 1 scale I think.

I have really liked globes as far back as I can see.

Doe in my front “yard”, 30 feet from my widow and about 8 feet up the hill. Seems a couple does have new fawns nearby. Hope to see the youngsters soon. We caught a doe giving birth on a game cam a few years ago.

Good morning, happy Friday.

Tomorrow looks perfect for an outdoor concert. Can't wait.

Happy Friday kidlets ️

We made it!

I’d call that a weather ‘win’ @Laughing Grass - hope the show is awesome!
