Kalicayo @kalicayo.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Daytime highs of 105°. And smol correction, it’s currently 84.7° outside at 0525. The pups don’t even want to go for walks. 4 more days. UGH. It’s supposed to cool off by Friday. (Highs of 85°/lows of 68ish.) At least it hasn’t been windy. No Santa Ana’s yet. The finicky heirloom tomatoes are 100
Kalicayo @kalicayo.bsky.social · 05/10/2026October in SoCal can be brutal. It’s currently 80° and 0430. That’s *very warm* even for us here in the desert. Haven’t been able to open up the house to cool off bc it’s too dang HOT out. We have 4 more days of this. Last night, after sundown, I went up on the roof and cleaned the solar panels. 100
Kalicayo @kalicayo.bsky.social · 28/09/2026lol, I did not buy the Japanese egg. Went back to the sale, and would’ve gotten a heck of a deal ($100), but I don’t really have a place to keep it out of the weather nor do I bbq or smoke foods enough. And bc of its age and type of clay, all wisdom said not to go over 300-350°. And keep it dry. 010

Kalicayo @kalicayo.bsky.social · 20/06/2025lol, OMdog, almost two weeks to head back south. I’m on the road (not driving) and should be home in about 5 more hours.
