I had a doctor’s appointment at 2pm, so I left early to do some shopping at Home Depot for a few things I needed to finish up my workshop project. The traffic was really bad because the road crew had the whole middle lane torn up in front of WalMart and Home Depot. When I started to leave I noticed there weren't any left-turns to make from the parking lot. So, I went to one of the light signals. I wanted for the light to turn green and made my way into the intersection. Unfortunately, there was a “No Left Turn” I noticed as I made my way into the construction lane. I was going to back-up but a fire truck with sirens blazing was coming right at me, and a big work truck had entered the construction lane almost blocking my way. I decided to get my set priorities and continued with my left-turn hoping the big work truck would stop and let me pass; he did. Then this guy who was supposingly directing traffic, gave me the “I see you” with two fingers to his eyes and then directed his two fingers at me. All I could do was sorrowfully shrug my shoulders and continue on my way to my appointment.
Kjtel dropped by for a brief chat.

I've been sitting outside these past few nights watching the meteors fall from the heavens. There are some very bright blue and white ones zipping across the sky, and if you focus your night adaptive eyes you'll see tiny ones zip by so fast you'll think you may have imagined it. I'll be out there watching the night skies hoping to see some spectacular showers as the days progress towards the weekend and the Perseid shower intensifies.
Yeah, not a drop of rain here as you said... that's how our lovely desert is and always keeps us on our toes guessing. Always something interesting going on here.

Tuesday 20- 106/84F really bad humidity. I did my stretches and 100 crunches.
Wednesday 21- 107/84F I've been having some difficulties with the heat and humidity we've been having lately. I try to do my exercises, but it has been very hard when it's over 106 degrees and sometimes almost 120F. Today it was only 102, so I got up off my butt and did my morning exercises, excluding my mile jog. Poor Cassie can't go with me when I go jogging because of the hot ground. I do take her on long evening walks exploring the desert, these sometimes last an hour or more. I miss my boat!
Kelly is still here and I gave her a date of the end of September to get it together and move onto her own property.

Tuesday 01- 103/75F I did all my exercises.
Someone dumped an extremely schizophrenic 27-year-old woman in our 106F desert. The woman broke into the gray trailer down on the corner. When it became very 103F she started roaming around collecting things like bottle caps and stuff you’d find on the side of the road. She ended up knocking on Kelly’s trailer door looking like she had a heat stroke and spent the day there.
Later in the evening, she broke into Kjtel’s house and the police were called. The police arrived but said they could only ask her if she needed help, if she didn’t there was nothing they could do, “We can’t kidnap her,” they said.
Kelly finally got a hold of the woman’s friend who lives in Hesperia and said she would drive down. I waited until four in the morning outside to flag them down but the woman's friend never showed.
Wednesday 02- 103/75F I did my stretches and 100 crunches.
For two days me and my neighbors have been trying to get her help but she was hard to handle and abusive. She would run off into the desert for hours and come back very dehydrated; I think she was also suffering from a heat stroke.
We decided to call an ambulance because the woman started acting insanely wild and while we waited for the ambulance to come she walked off into the desert. I had to run after her across the hot desert but couldn’t catch up, so I got in my car, picked up Kjtel, who I texted, along the way. We found her down the road about half a mile away and drove her back to wait for the ambulance.
Both the police, ambulance personnel, and firefighter said they can do anything with her if she doesn't want their assistance, “We can kidnap her,” they all said and left, except for the ambulance personnel. She would have died out here in the desert heat if we weren’t persistent with the ambulance personnel who we finally convinced and loaded up and took the Schizophrenic woman away to the hospital.
This is what got me to write my little post. I think it's a shame there are the affluent in our society who rather ignore the plight of the homeless and mentally ill they step over on the sidewalks and as they drive past with their eyes focused straight ahead in their air conditioned cars.
I then went to town to do some shopping.
Both the police, ambulance personnel, and firefighter said the same thing: they cannot do anything with her if she doesn't want their assistance, “We can’t kidnap her,” they all said. She would have died out here in the desert heat if we weren’t persistent with the ambulance personnel who finally took her to the hospital.
Thursday 03- 107/75F with a nice evening breeze. I did my stretches and 100 crunched.
Had to remove the new window mini-split I just purchased because I needed more solar panels to power it. I then reinstalled the old swamp cooler.
Kjtel came by with her dogs to watch the night sky with me and Cassie.
Friday 04- 108/75F hot. I got up early when it wasn’t so hot and took Cassie with me on my mile jog. The last few times the ground has been too hot for her tender paws for her to go with me. I only did my morning exercises because of the heat.
Saturday 05- 106/71F I did my stretches and crunches.
Sunday 06- 102/68F I did my stretches and crunches.
I was woken up by Cassie's insistent barking, so I brought her inside and went out to investigate. At the gate was a man. His name is Dennis, who can’t speak a lick of English, accidentally ran his car off the road onto my property and was stuck on the berm. He and his male dog Chico, who peed on everything (Cassie didn’t like that), were very hot with the outside temps over a hundred Fahrenheit. I had them get under the cold water of the garden hose to cool down. We chatted for a while and he said he was from Cuba (he pronounces it Coo-Ba and I didn’t understand until he said Castro), moved to the Diminim Republic, then to Jamaica, and on to Florida where he has family. They moved to Banning where he was headed before getting stuck in front of my home. We dug his car out and on the first try the tires rolled right out from where he had buried his car up to the floorboards; we did a lot of digging.
Kjtel came by with her doggies to sit outside and watch the stars with me and Cassie.
Monday 07- 95/62F a nice breeze and cooler. I did all my exercises and went for a long jog with Cassie. Later we went for a very long 3 hour walk around and watched the sunset.

Saturday 19- 114/82F
Sunday 20- 11/77F windy with gusts up to 22mph.
Yes, it was an excellent stake to stick in the ground. I had to go back to adjust the dial at sunset because of the drift; unfortunately, the Summer solstice was at 8:45pm and I set it at 7:40 while I still had sunlight, so it's probably about 15 degrees off (the Sun moves 15 degrees across the sky in an hour)... we'll get a better fix on the dial when setting it on the equinox :)
Monday 21- 106/78F windy gust up to 25mph. It was a bit over 100 degrees when I went outside to exercise and not the 113-119F we’ve been having recently. I did my mile jog first alone without Cassie (too hot for her little paws). I then did the core trainer, weight bench, and punched on the heavy bag for a short spell. It felt good to do my full morning routine and when I was done I jumped in the pool to soak there for a time, cooling off and feeling refreshed. I can handle exercising in the heat up to 106F but after that I hunker down inside to stay cool.
Tuesday 22- 104/79F a bit of wind, mostly overcast with a few sprinkles. I did my stretches and 100 crunches.

I wanted to cut some wood but the hummingbirds were cooling off in the porch and out of the Sun where I was going to work. I decided to leave them alone to enjoy their cool place and go inside.
Sunday 27- 111/84F hotter. I did my stretches and 100 crunches.
Monday 28- 110/83F Looks like a couple of fires in San Bernardino; The Peak Fire in the San Bernardino Forest and a few others. I woke up to the smell of what I thought was an electrical fire and checked my solar equipment but soon noticed the gray haze in the skies to the west. I'm just going to stay inside and mellow out today and hope tomorrow has better air quality so I can do my exercises.
Tuesday 29- 103/79F cloudy with lots of humidity. I did all my morning, evening, and night exercises except a mile jog because of the weather.
I’ve been taking Cassie for a long walks and then sitting outside for a few hours on these hot days.

I did my evening stretches, 10lbs dumbbells, core trainer, and heavybag.
Saw StarLink deployment across the sky. Yup, me and my two friends saw these. I ran into the house to very quickly check the time: 8:55
I saw those go across the sky too! Very cool. I also had a hysterical neighbor who called 911 thinking we were being invaded 😮 I told her it was probably StarLink... she still looked confused and scared... maybe she thought I said SkyNet from the Terminator 🙂

Friday 14- 98/63F windy. I did my stretches and 100 crunches.
I installed the window mounted mini-split. Took about 3 hours because I had to hunt down the needed tools. I tested the unit for an hour because it was getting late. It seemed to cool right down. Will do more testing tomorrow.
Kjtel came by with her dogs and we had a fine time yapping and carrying on.
Saturday 15- 92/56F windy. I did all my exercises
I tested the window mini-split and it didn’t draw down my battery too much but I might want to add some panels. I have it set up with its own solar array, battery, controler, and inverter like I had planned. You can really feel the heat coming out the backend when it's working hard.
I installed the new battery into the Palm Z21 and it charged up just fine now to install new software and games onto it.

Kjtel dropped by with tea and chocolate. Bodhi, Henry, and Cassie played in the yard while me and Kjtel discussed matters of importance in world events and solved one of the mysteries of life; but we now have forgotten what it was we solved. I guess it’s better for the world this way, us having forgotten.

I finished installing the drainpipe for the little pool and filled it up and there seems to be no leaks anywhere.
I visited David, my neighbor and gave him a red LED flashlight that also glows in the dark so it’s easy to find at night. A red light will not harm your night vision when reading star maps.
Sunday 23- 83/58 nice day. I did my stretches and 100 crunches and took Cassie for long walks in the morning and another in the early evening.
Walked on over to Kjtel’s, me and Cassie did, took the Poets Trail to her house. Bodhi and Henry were anxiously wagging their tails when they saw Cassie.

Why don’t we land explorers on Mars like a helicopter and then investigate the planet? First, use a drag chute entering the atmosphere to slow the hell down, and then use the air resistance from the blades to slow down further and then land. Now you have a cool way to roam the planet by air :)

Kjtel package delivery. Poet Trail meetup
Worked on my Harley’s electrical system.
Wednesday 21- 79/53F I did my stretches, 100 crunches, core trainer, weight bench, punched the heavy bag, and took Cassie for a mile run.
I went to the post office in 29 to pick up a Vintage NEW sealed Palm Zire 21 Handheld Limited edition. I didn’t get it to let it sit in the box. I got it home but the battery was so old it wouldn’t hold a charge. I ordered a new battery from China!
I went to the college for my second covid-19 shot and then I’ll be done with this mess, hopefully. The nurse who gave me the shot was named Spring, I asked if her parents were Hippies.
I knew I would be feeling bad from the 2nd shot so I did my evening workout with the 10lbs dumbbells and I did my late-night stretches and worked out with the 15lbs dumbbells.
Thursday 22- 80/57F a little overcast. Because I wasn’t feeling well after the vaccine I only did my stretches and 100 crunches.
Kjtel came by with Bodhi and Henry. Henry is a big dumb dog with such a sad face he makes me laugh but he’s a good doggie Kjtel is taking care of for a friend; she’ll probably end up with him permanently by the way she treats him.
Friday 23- 79/58F nice and clear. I did my stretches and 100 crunches; still feeling a little out of it but better. That second shot really packs quite a wallop.
I went to the post office in Twentynine Palms to get the 220V inverter I hope will power my mini-split.
Saturday 24- 86/55F
I did my stretches, 100 crunches, core trainer, weight bench, punched the heavy bag, and took Cassie for a mile run.
Kjtel dropped by with Bodhi and Henry for a visit. Me and Cassie walk them back to her house.
I did my evening workout with the 10lbs dumbbells.
Sunday 25- 82/54F windy all day. I did my stretches and 100 crunches.
Talked to my brother Kevin for a spell.
Monday 26- 67/46F windy with a taste of rain thrown in. I did my stretches, core trainer, weight bench, heavybag, and jogged a mile with Cassie.
Linda came by to chat. She told me she saw bags of trash just down the road. We went to get them but there were too many large bags stuffed full of garbage. We could only fit two of them inside my dumpster.
Tuesday 27- 71/55F wind and a little more rain. I did my stretches, core trainer, weight bench, heavybag, and jogged a mile with Cassie.
UPS delivered my 220V inverter to hopefully power my mini-split. I also received a solar controller and a fan controller. Too late to hook them up today.
Wednesday 28- 84/60F nice clear day. I did my stretches and did 100 crunches.
I hooked up the new 220V inverter to my mini-split and it worked! Finally, I can rest easy and not worry about the install. The real test will come tomorrow and Friday when the temps get to around 100F degrees. I also hooked up the solar controller I purchased for charging the batteries for my lights.
Mike Donahue (Stoney’s grandson) and his wife Windy called to use my dumpster because they’re cleaning up the old house; no problem, I said.
Thursday 29- 92/64F I did my stretches, 100 crunches, core trainer, weight bench, punched the heavy bag, and took Cassie for a mile run.
David dropped by needing advice on his solar. We all went up to his home and checked it out. Cassie and I continued our evening walk from there.

I did my late-night stretches, worked out with the 15lbs dumbbells, and went for a night run up the hill and back.

I reinstalled my guest’s swamp cooler before she and her cats melted away from the heat.
