    Mornin' BBB.

    Wow, Lisa. Good job being an advocate for DD28. So glad she got her medication.

    For the record, I probably would have eaten some of the fat. What cut was that Lou?

    Happy belated Anniversary, Sam!

    Did not catch any strippers but imagine folks would come to a fish fry with strippers. Might even be able to charge admission.

    I did catch a lot of stripers, but none big enough to keep. Actually had to stop and rest because I had hooked up so many times I was tired. Fighting and boating a 10 lb salt water fish on a fly rod is hard work. Went back at it and caught more fish. Little John backed out at the last minute so I went alone. It was super foggy.

    Dog training was hot Saturday. Beautiful day, but we had to limit how long the dogs could run.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Saturday's dog training. You can barely see the dog sitting and holding the bird waiting to deliver to his handler.

    Morning~

    LMAO!

    Quiet day yesterday - Nat's lost. Making us nervous about a Wild Card berth.

    Did get hooked up with new Apple Series 5 Watch. Holding off on iPhone 11 for another year.

    gonna be a busy week. Double header games tomorrow; and another game with DW on Friday night (GMU (her alma mater) appreciation night).

    Fundraiser next weekend for a school board candidate. Busy busy

    Congrats on the stripers, Doc! How's the patient (your neighbors pup)?

    Good morning BBB crew.

    Hard to imagine hot weather. We are back into lows in the 40s, highs in the 50s and rain. Leaves are all changing, too.

    Catching so many fish your arms get tired sounds pretty good, to me, even if none of them were keepers.

    Errands with DW this morning, then trying to not get in the way as she preps for the delivery of the new refrigerator, tomorrow.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • It's Monday so I had breakfast with the ROMEOs.
    • After that a visit to the Skin Cancer Dr. All good on that front (and back).
    • Nationals have a brutal week ahead of them Skip. They should make a Wild Card slot but the home field advantage may be in jeopardy. Good luck.
    • Hoping things are looking up for DD28 Lisa.
    • I have bills to pay. Have a great day.

    Good morning BBB

    After a weekend of rain, the sun is shining bright with expected temps to 70's

    Brewers won last 4 games woohoo. Now.... lets keep it going with away games with the Reds....
    news has sit...."The Nationals return home Monday from their last road trip of the year tied with the Milwaukee Brewers for the top spot in the wild-card race. "

    The GB Packers took Denver and the GB OL kept #12s jersey clean!

    That's a great weekend of fishing and dogs Lee!

    Lisa, continued thoughts and prayers for DD28's wellness!

    Kelly, no sunburn we hope!

    Steph, whats your week looking like?!

    Skip, you are state of the art ! Me, Im still deleting photos from my S5 trying to free up space LOL

    Lou heading back home now? When is move out of IL date?

    I think Im going to start looking for supplemental income, I wanna buy some stuff, and I need a slush fund with the holidays coming, travel more to Dallas area, etc etc.

    Enjoy the day!

    Belated happy b-day to Raine!
    Nice pics of Madrid Lou!! GB looked good while the Seahawks were awful. I wonder if Coach Caroll didn't get a mild concussion when the football struck his nose causing injury. Why in the world did he not use at least one of his two remaining timeouts at the end of the first half when time just ran out before the catch was made on a long bomb pass. Otherwise just take a knee if you don't want to run that play etc. Seattle never got in the game.
    •Lisa: continued good Ts and Ps for your DD28

    Awesome photos Lou.

    Walked a new loup today. There was trucks and a dirt digger blocking our normal route. This one was just as hilly but had longer stretches of flat so I can catch my breath. Then we went for a walk on the beach. Still no snorkeling as the rip tide warning is still around. Tropical storm Karen will likely keep us inside all day tomorrow.

    Mary I hear good things about VIPkid. You teach English to chinese kids. Pays $20 ish an hour with early morning shifts.

    Good Afternoon,
    Yoga class for Monday and Wednesday morning is growing
    Sometimes there is no reasoning as to what coaches call especially in NFL
    Kelly, enjoy sun and sand
    After a couple days in upper 80's we are back to 90's for fall, Dave and Bob please send cooler temps and rain this way; we are running 10 - 15 degrees over normal.
    We would go down near dam at night for stripers a couple could feed a crowd, and once again auto correct tried to add another "p".
    Lisa, hope DD is better and chemicals are regulated
    Did Jack get a good beach day in?
    DMIL, wanted to save a few cents; all plumbing in basement has to be pumped up to main drain to gravity flow into sewer. So she has been using Cottonelle tissue which contains cotton which will not breakdown like regular tissue; she has stopped up all drains downstairs causing pump and grinder to burn-up. Now waiting for plumber to get pump shipped in since no local places carry and we are talking about $800.00 for her to save a few cents, about 40 cents per pack of 6 rolls. I need a vacation from her before I go off on her.
    Enjoy the Day,
    Sam
