    Current guesses from the pros are topping out in the low 80s through Sat.

    Trying to set up the outside work to be short small batches.

    Too bright outside to work currently. Can actually feel the sun on my face when outside.

    Threading the chains through old fire hose, or manure dragline hose works great too
