Missing the 'cool' office - it's not air con, but uses fancy pumped ground water to cool/heat the concrete pillars ! It works.

If l did rubbish collecting l would hide the bins as well. That way the owners of the rubbish would need to dispose of it themselves.

Why didn't they simplify it to average or medium ?

The Wind River becomes the Bighorn River and then the Little Bighorn River empties into it , before it gets to the Yellowstone River.Why didn't they simplify it to average or medium ?

It's a right scorcher here chez Casa Reynard here today. All the upstairs windows are open. Was a choice between melting and sneezing. I think I'd much rather sneeze.
A morning spent doing the usual puttering about. Watered the veggies and then did some woodwork - namely making a new board for my easel / lap. The one I tidied up the other day is a tad too big for my current projects, so I found another scrap of ply and cut a smaller one.
All I need to do is finish sanding it down, as the grain on the surface is rather prominent - not so good for pencil work. But can I find my electric sander? Nope. So muggins is sanding it down by hand.
Time to tootle off for a spot of lunch. I has a hungry.

It's pretty warm here too. Fortunately it's cooler in the garage, where I've been all afternoon, than in the house.
My art board is all nicely sanded down. A rummage on the shelves turned up a bonus pot of matte varnish, so I've applied the first coat on the top surface. I'll let that dry overnight, then sand it down and put a second coat on.
So when it's done, I'll have a waterproof surface on which to stretch any paper that needs stretching, and the varnish will be nice and smooth to work on. Plus it'll stop the edges from delaminating.
