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.

Morning~
Anxious to see some left handed turns at Taladega today!
A friend from NC (former USAF colleague) visiting. Salty ole' firefighter turn Methodist Minister!! Wow!
Raining today - but I'm sunburned from a day out with DW yesterday in both the Vette and Jeep with tops off. Legs are scorched; neck and face scorched.
Got to visit old hood yesterday and say hello to neighbors in driveway. Was nice to see them. Hard to believe its been two years!

Good morning BBB Friends.
- Who would of thought I would be the 1st one here today?
- I got to sleep in this morning. Not scheduled to work in the AV booth.
- Skip must be excited. The cars are going round and round in Darlington today.
- We were only 45 miles from there on our motorbike ride Friday. BTW, the bike is all shiny clean now.
- We are supposed to get rain tonight and/or tomorrow. Yeh!
- How was the inaugural ride on the new boat Mary?
- Sam, the new restaurant on the lake, The Bistro, is getting good reviews other than being loud.
- Have a great Sunday BBB.

Good Morning BBB.
Love to get power walk in with Jack in the morning! he is always wanting to increase the pace because if you're not the lead dog your view never changes!
Dennis - Unos is a Chicago based franchise - no wonder you liked it 🤣
Eye surgery the 27th to remove the oil bubble that held the retina repair in place while healing (delayed because of COVID) - tons of pre-surgery crapola beforehand - you know the drill.
Do good out there everyone.

Mornin' BBB.
Nice day here yesterday. Spent most of it outside. Manufactured lots of vit D.
Cloudy today.
Kelly is helping Raine sell her slightly used RV. Pretty sweet set up.
Spoke to a fella yesterday who lost two friends to COVID-19 that were vacationing with their families down in Naples FL when the shut down occurred back in March. Both men in their fifties, came back to CT and died within a week of returning. The assumption was that they contracted COVID-19 in Florida and then brought it back up here. Thankfully the rest of family members did not get sick.
The unpredictable nature of this virus is what makes it so scary. Why does it cause severe and even fatal disease in some and not in others with the same exposure? We may never know.
Dennis, DS#1 just purchased a Ducati. Not a cruisin' bike, obviously. I call it Top Gun fever.

Good morning BBB crew.
Finished up "Outlander," yesterday. Now what? Another damp day, outside, so yard work is out.
I've been on a braed baking kick, lately. I took a no-knead recipe I had, cut the sakt some and added some sugar, and really like the results. It tastes like the bread my mom used to bake every week. Back then, they had a machine in the grocery store you could use to slice your homemade bread. No charge. Won't find that around anymore.0 -
Morning BBB
Had fun yesterday with the family. The kids loved feeding the calves the "candy" pellets. It was a nice day out so spent most of the day on the patio. Not too excited the oldest two both brought the GF/BF and dad invited a couple over for dessert. Not to good at social distancing here. So there was 18 here off and on.
Everyone was gone by 8 but Ron and dad both fell asleep during Ozark so we will need to rewatch that episode.
House cleaning on the agenda today. After coffee0 -
Good Afternoon,
Have gotten where me and DW take a stroll around neighborhood first thing in mornings, usually don't see anyone, today we ran into several folks; working towards covering entire neighborhood daily.
Went to Covington last night to eat at outside restaurant, lots of others must have had same idea; vehicles backed up into street and lined around building; decided we did not need to take that risk picked up some at grocery deli and came home to eat, DMIL did not get her margarita last night could fix it for her tonight will have to see how she behaves today.
Dennis, is Bistro setup for social distancing?
Will be watching left turns this afternoon,
Agree rain really needed

Lee - actually Riley is all over it like white on rice!! Go Team Moody!
And, BTW, Ducati is a sweet bike - bad@ss2 -
A Duc is a mighty fine canyon carver. A have an old friend that used to race them on the track.
I haven't been to The Bistro Sam but I hear they have it set up for social distancing.0 -
I had to google Ducati. Apparently I'm not up on my 2-wheeled education.0

Ducati is often called the Ferrari of the motorcycle world.0

Good Evening
We accomplished the maiden voyage and spending lots of time and money prior to getting her wet, just like owning a new used boat is! Lol. New battery, and bumpers, a couple latches, oil change supplies, detailing cleaning supplies, and 8 hours later on Sat, we launched. It goes about 20mph tops. Perfect 20ft , 60hp 4stoke mercury, quite, in nice clean good running condition.
I got grass cut, lots of pines needles raked up and taken to the dump. Helped some with boat. Saw and spoke at 6ft distance the HOA secretary to pay annual dues, and to one friend. We stayed close to home, ate at home. Will do the same next weekend.
Ds2 wrote an asking price offer tonite on a house he got a pre look at, prior to sellers formal listing... we will see what happens.
I will post a boat photo from lap top tomorrow.
Wisconsin businesses sure are backing up on the open for business ruling. I think it's good they are opening slowly with a plan, instead of just quick open follow bore to the masses.0
