Poured concrete today that should be kept above 6°C. Covered it to two layers of cardboard, two layers of standard tarp, and then all under two layers of insulated tarp. Forecast low was 6, but it's already down to 8 at 8pm and dropping fast. Clear sky. It's going to 4. Send thoughts & prayers.

Overheard Trump's voice (as I clicked to make it go away) saying that where he goes to campaign they win and where he doesn't they don't, and I realized that's part of why he's campaigning in safe red districts. He wants credit for the wins and no blame for losses. It's about his ego, not the party.
