09:28:33
<Kat> OF
09:30:40

09:31:53
<Kat> Hi Katie
09:53:38
<Kat> Tough morning there
10:00:29

10:02:26
<Kat> Sorry Katie didn't see that is was 1201 LOL
10:02:33
<Kat> Have a good drive
10:02:45
<Katie ā> Thanks
10:12:21
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Nice fat quail when I put the garbage out this morning Linda.
10:16:29
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, nice! saw a picture yesterday of that derby winner actually biting the guy's leg yikes
10:19:36
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Daisy
10:20:40
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> That was one grouchy horse!
10:21:18
<Katie ā> He was very aggressive - but then...
10:21:24
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, he was. they were critizing the guy for correcting him, but he had to
10:21:40
<linda> Katie ā, he was wired
10:21:47
<Katie ā> Sure was
10:22:02
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> He sure did. That other poor horse just wanted to get away.
10:22:04
<linda> but thats why he won
10:23:08
<Katie ā> And he still wanted to be in front and didn't like handler holding him back, or escort horse being ahead.
10:23:33
<linda> they know :)
10:23:49
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Old Mattress Mack lost $2.6 million on the race. Wonder what he would have got if he bet on the long shot.
10:23:57
<linda> grand
10:24:58
<linda> east entrance open
10:26:06
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, who is old mack mattress?
10:27:11
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> He owns a chain of mattress stores in Texas and bets big on the major sporting events.
10:27:33
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, :thumbsup:
10:29:07
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> He should have bet on the sleeper....
10:30:55
<Katie ā> Given that Rich Strike wasn't even supposed to be in the race, I'm confused as to how it's only the second longest shot
10:34:05
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Wasn't a lot of time to bet on him, that's for sure.
11:43:32
<Mario> beautiful snowstorm
11:44:17
<Katie ā> Do you wanna build a snowman?
12:46:15

14:38:02
<yuck> winter was so mild there, and now spring is full of snow showers

<linda> .
18:08:37
<LindaG> OF
18:16:05
<LindaG> Wow the control screen is horrible tonight
18:29:28
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> You broke the control screen?
19:31:27
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> It is waiting until dark
19:32:19
<linda> Yup :p
19:35:18
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> When are you going to the park Linda?
19:36:26
<linda> i have reservation for aug 29-31st at roosevelt and sept 1-9 at OF Cabin
19:36:57
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> OK. I was thinking you were headed there in a few days.
19:37:38
<linda> sadly no. I'm headed to vegas-zion-north rim June 19-30
19:38:10
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> OK, that was the trip I was thinking about.
19:38:56
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, :thumbsup:
19:39:52
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Hopefully the wind will die down by then.
19:40:04
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, I hiope so
19:40:54
<linda> after OF I think I'm done, visibility is terrible
19:40:56
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> WSW24G31 right now.
19:41:15
<linda> It's been real windy here also
19:41:46
<linda> I'm used to wind but wind and dust must be a drag
19:43:05
<linda> OF
19:43:53
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> At least it is under 100Ā°. 115Ā° with a 30 mph wind is terrible. Weather Channel talks about how at least there is a breeze to cool us down. Hello? Have you ever heard the term "convection oven"?
19:44:35
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, >(
19:45:21
<linda> short
19:45:42
<linda> I think
19:47:11
<linda> yup
19:47:50
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, I remember phoenix at 120 oven describes it
19:49:47
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Yes it does. Working on hot asphalt is totally brutal in the summer.
19:50:03
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, i'm sure
19:51:55
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> This is an actual temperature chart for a job I was working in Laughlin once. The asphalt was 350Ā°. https://www.flickr.com/photos/158539681@N04/49828450627/in/dateposted-public/
19:52:41
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, wow
19:53:07
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, lost some weight that day? :):)
19:53:10
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> You would go through about 5 gallons of water per day.
19:53:39
<linda> I would just have passed out
19:54:37
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> I had to locate manholes before the steam roller ran over them so they wouldn't get buried.
19:55:18
<linda> :)
19:55:51
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> It would burn your feet right through your boots.
19:56:47
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, yikes
19:57:45
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> If you got it on bare skin it was a 2nd degree burn so long sleves and gloves were used.
19:58:16
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, in the heat, sounds horrible
19:59:14
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> I really had some extremes at NDOT. From 130s to minus 20s.

20:01:37
<linda> controls released
20:02:56
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> FYI full eclipse of the moon Sunday.
20:13:25
<linda> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, oh cool, maybe I'll take a picture
20:15:23
<kcmule> 'Super flower blood moon' has its own marketing right in the name
20:16:29
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Supposed to be more red due to the volcanic ash.
20:23:40
<linda> nice
21:37:42
<linda> lion
