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, folks.
I've had what can only charitably be called a thimble of coffee this morning while Cecilia still sleeps. Although it's 10,so I'm about to go wake her.

Mornin' BBB.
No S'bux Lou? Is it spring there?
Haven't posted for a couple of days. Had to do a factory reset on my phone Saturday afternoon when text messaging stopped working after two hours with tech support trying to fix the problem prior to doing the reset. Technology.
Hit the salt by myself Sunday am. Sometimes its good to fish alone. Me wee boat ran like a top. Caught several "shorts", no keepers. Couldn't find the big ones, but that is OK. Got a workout from the big waves rolling in with the tide.
Cool sunset photo.
Welcome home, Raine. Bet the boys were glad to see you.
BTG and Babe took home another fourth place Saturday against a very talented field of dogs. He was very pleased. Plus she has now qualified for the National in Kansas. Another dog in our training group took first in the amateur on Sunday.
Hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend.
BBB OP ;-)

Good morning
I haven’t been keeping up on the posts very well. Too busy.
Great weekend. Took the dogs to a brewery with a dog park. We donated some cash and got a brick. I’ll post a picture of it. The dogs had a fantastic time. All the dogs werr very social. No jerk dogs or owners.
I was up and out of the house before 6. I’m lying on the couch of a dog sitting customer. Ha.
Headed to the panhandle of Florida in 6 days. Woo hoo.
Hope everyone had a great weekend.0 -

Morning.
Long week on the horizon. Not really ready for it. Ugh.
Love the bricks!
Our favorite brewery allows dogs and I'm amazed how many morons are unable to control their furry friends.
Lee - great news for AB! Glad you got the line wet!
DMIL/DW come home tomorrow - in time for me to leave for an overnight two day training session.
All in a days work.
Have a great one.

Morning BBB.
Had a pouring rain yesterday afternoon and the temperature dropped to 80 we opened all the windows and got a good breeze. First time I have been cool all week. I'm ready for fall. 90 and on Central ac is tough.
Today we are working on investments this morning. Need to roll over my 401k and log all if our current assests. Need to keep track for tax purposes when we sell stuff. Going to need a CPA this year I'm guessing.
Pretty cool dog bar. Glad everyone was behaving. That is not my experience in Omaha. We stay away from the ones that allow dogs because owners $uck.
Skip I forgot to tell you. On our last day in Omaha we stayed downtown and we're going to hang at upstream patio and people watch but it was closed for two days

Good morning BBB crew.
Well, it's low 50s and raining, here in Tumwater, so 90 degrees sounds pretty good, to me, Steph.
Have an 8 o'clock appointment at the VA, 25 miles up the road, to get my hearing tested. Rita says I talk too loud and I do have trouble understanding what people say to me, so we'll see how it goes.0 -
Good morning BBB friends.
- You won one indeed Skip. I had to settle for a Falcon victory last night.
- We have a neighborhood group headed to SunTrust Park on Thursday. There might be a celebration!?!.
- I love the memorial bricks for Cooper and Sally.
- Finances take on a whole new meaning in retirement. It is mentally tough to go from saving to spending. I guess I was always a saver.
- Good luck at the VA Dave. The hearing aid journey took me awhile but I stuck with it. Then again, I wasn't in the system when I started.
- Enjoy your vacation Lou.

Good Morning
Sounds like everyone had a nice weekend, including me!
Nice tribute to the memory of your dogs, Kelly
How did you like the star fruit Steph? Sour, sweet, both, just right lol ?
Congrats to BTG and Babe, Lee! Like they say a bad day fishing is better than a good day in the office! Any finalization on selling the business? You'll have more fishing time!!!
Enjoy your trip, Lou. Let your wife sleep in!!
Good luck Dave with your VA appt. If you need aids, you'll be happy to have gotten them!!!
Welcome back home, Raine!
Lisa, you guys rocked the live Mannequin gig!
Skip, come to Miller Park for a game to two sometime! We'd love to have ya! And any BBB'rs for that matter! We have a guest room!!!
MKE Brewers are still a game behind those Cubbies for the wild card. Big grand slam and win last night in St Louie! Bring on the Padres!!!!
Have a great day BBB!!!0 -
In the process of due diligence with buyer. Going well so far...probably close in December.
We'll see if I have more or less time...gotta work for the buyer for 3 years.1 -
Mary the star fruit was ok. Texture of an apple. Not very sweet. Would be good fruit salad.1
