He probably thought he had found a new variation of them. You almost had to be nuts to work some of those days even when doing so intermittently. The rodent has not returned for days incidentally.

I start work when the sun is no longer hitting the area I am working on. Too hard to erect a tarp as a sunshade and the winds would probably get it. I just looked at the indoor outdoor thermometer. It is still over ninety degrees F but the area I am going to work on is starting to lose the sunlight. So I will get going soon.

Unless it is overcast. I am down to a four hour day. The heat wave should break soon at least.
