Spent yesterday headed up the road past Houston to meet with people about commissioning our project over there. Today I was forty miles north of here investigating a problem we’ve been having, and I contractors doing some testing for me north of Baton Rouge. That’s a 350-mile span…

The meeting in Houston was supposed to be Monday but Houston (and southwest Louisiana, too) were suffering under torrential rains. As a matter of fact, when I got to the site yesterday there was a shallow lake where there used to be a tree-studded green space. The actual construction site was a vast morass of sticky red clay. But it didn’t rain yesterday. It did, however, make up for that today, and to add insult to the injury, we’ve had near-record high temperatures, like the low nineties. It’s the LAST HALF of October, for heaven’s sake.

It’s supposed to cool off tomoroow.

Man, I’m tired…
