Pour yourself a mug of your favorite morning brew. Pull up a chair and join us for our morning roll call here on the BBB.

Good Morning BBB.
We had rain last evening and a cold front has arrived - highs in the 70s with overnight lows in the 60s for a while - sounds like wonderful January weather.
Weekly beach time yesterday - we went to a different beach over on Boca Grande. We had the beach to ourselves as the front was coming in and the wind was up. Marvelous.
By this time next week we should have our canvas gazebo up over the outdoor table and our "clam" tent in place for storage and shade lounging. Our camper faces west and the awnings are little protection from the afternoon sun. These two additions will create an outdoor space for work and relaxing.
Do good out there everyone.

Mornin' BBB.
That looks like one happy Jack. Gorgeous beach.
Am slightly jealous since the weather here is in between. Not snow but cold
and wet.
Skip, how many DMILs does it take to screw in a light bulb? Agree with Bob on the LEDs.
Have never had cracklin' cornbread. New food item to try!
Off to work. Raining all day here. Honey do list this afternoon.
BBB OP ;-)0 -
Saw this and thought of you, Skip.2 -
Good morning. Good chuckle lee.
Great photo of jack.
Lee we have the same wet weather here. Crazy. In the 50s this week.
Pick up sally this afternoon. I’ll cry. Only cried once yesterday it was when I came home and said,” hey Henry, hey ...... “.
Have a great day.
Food planning and the store. 4 weeks to be in a bikini.0 -
Morning~
GREAT photo of HJ on the beach with a new Tennis Ball!
Sam - MRI? Everything okay? Agree with DS - "....call the guy."
Lee - thats funny stuff! I'm going to hijack that one (hopefully never have to use it)!
Afternoon at brewery with some great friends - turned into a full day outing! We had such a good time catching up (no schedules)! Today I'm meeting some friends from my old firehouse at a different brewery.
How's O'Henry? I'm sure he's grieving too...... Still sending thoughts in IN!
Cold; Wet; Rainy here today. Ugh.
Shutdown showdown continues. Ugh......

•Boca Grande looks simply marvelous Raine and Jack of course. I have ridden a bike to Myakka State Park before and just love that part of Florida.
•Nice chuckle Lee on an otherwise serious subject.
•Yup pretty mild and suppose to be wetter and windy tonight in our neck of the PacNW.0 -
Thoughts and prayers continue for he Moody family.
Sam - keep us posted on the MRI - 🤞
Lee - that's a keeper
Kelly - remind me - where are you cruising?

Good morning BBB Friends.
- The FL RV is getting completed and the dog on the the beach is Happier Jack.
- Skip, I agree with the guys. When I moved into this new house I took out all the CFL lights they were so proud of for the same reason you did. I replaced them with LED. Instant on and will last for 20 years. if you have to get on a ladder to replace them that's a big deal. They've come way down in price.
- Sending positive thoughts to Columbus, IN which I recently heard has some world class architecture.
- Baby Gender Reveal Party. If it was NYC there would be 3 options.

Yessir - though I did feel guilty about throwing away 60 some odd CFL lights! The LED are "mahvlous"0

Good morning BBB friends.
That warm beach looks great, right now, though Florida is way too flat to appeal to a mountain guy, like me.
We replaced the original incandescents with flourescents as they burned out. Those were supposed to last six years, but started to fail in one. We have replaced those with LEDs, which are supposed to last 20 years. But we have had one go out after 2 (DW wrote the date on the body of the light when it was installed). Brand matters. At least those are in the kitchen, where it's easy to get to them.0 -
Good Morning,
Expected WW meeting to be busy this morning, no new folks. Of course have not seen as much advertising as previous years.
DMIL keeps trying my patience, gave her my left hearing aid, this morning after getting back from WW, told her DsonIL parents totaled their truck yesterday but was home from hospital. She then turned around and ask DW if they had an accident, what the heck did I say? I don't have hearing aid in so I don't know! Why did I give you my hearing aid? She goes and gets it, then puts it in. What she does not understand is hearing aid can help one hear but do not know anything that will make one comprehend.
Lee, honey-do list are generally 24/7/365 no matter what else one has to do.
I could use a few days on warm beach!!!!
Prayers continue for Moody family,
Mary, at least they come down much faster than going up,
Should be sunny next 5 days, 60's next 3.
Enjoy the Day,
Sam I am0 -

Oh Sam. I love the mil stories. You’ll go straight to heaven. I’m sure of it.
Raine we’re leaving from
Miami then going to Puerto Rico. Punta Cana. Nassau Bahamas and st Thomas. Not in that order.
Tried on all my clothes and they all fit. I’m up 2 pounds. Still need to lose 20. The sally thing has turned me into a heavier alcohol consumer which does not help the weight.
I did get all my groceries and my plan so I’m good.
This weather is over 50 degrees today. Woot.
Yes Columbus IN Is well known for architecture. Who else knew that? Our house is not on the tour.0
