Greetings, gang.
Looks like the remote reaches of northern Iowa are in for another beautiful day. Right now it's sunny and 64 headed for a high in the low 80s, much like yesterday. A little warmer tomorrow and then much needed rain on Wed. afternoon and evening.
More work on the forms for the new bridge yesterday. Basically it's like a giant Jello® mold. I'm not ready to put it in place permanently because the sides are fiberboard and won't tolerate much rain (see forecast section above). Also rode the bike and cleaned it up a little bit. Cleaned and oiled the chain and washed the bike. It will now go 2 mph faster.
On tap for today is... Well. I'm not sure what I'm going to do today. I could work on the forms some more but I need to remove them before the rain on Wed. because I won't have time to pour the cement so I may just goof off today.
All stay safe.
Tom
