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,
    Went to Men's Breakfast this morning,
    Will go to service at 10, till mid July only one service, doing repairs to different buildings so service goes to building not under construction.
    Folks are really beginning to eat out again, had to wait about 30 minutes last night. What was funny, watching a couple assume they had not taken vaccine both had mask on and would pull down take a bite then replace mask, after a few minutes lady just removed her mask.

    Morning! Late start.

    Haircut/beard trim (yesterday appt *kitten* me off - as they were running 45 minutes later than my appointment time. They opened early for me this morning to make it up.

    Great date night with DW and favorite @Caymus Cabernet wine!

    Today is pool and sun!

    Great pic, Steph!

    Sam - Niece took DMIL out to dinner so we could enjoy our own night. The restaurant they wanted to go to was on a 90 minute wait. I refuse to wait more than 15 for anything. Silly. But yes, people are DEFINITELY out and about again!

    Good morning BBB crew.

    I'm with you on the waiting, Skip.

    Maybe church, this morning, maybe not. DW doesn't feel well.

    We're planning to hold our first garage sale in 30 years, in two weeks. I need to make a couple things for our display - a thing to hang clothes on, for example. I guess I'll work on that, today. I will be putting a bunch of bowls and turned stuff out at the sale, but don't expect to sell much. I am not going to give my work away and garage sale people are looking to spend pennies, not buy relatively expensive pieces.

    Well, we're back at the Homestead and we had a wonderful vacation time. Our place looks great and really is functional and comfortable and fun.

    Our numerous neighbors on this side of the cove are so kind, welcoming and fun too! So glad this all worked out for us!

    Today a retired couple that moved in 2 yeUs! ago this spring, took me in their boat at 6am this morning and showed me how to fish the right way... I'd been teasing him all year that he doesn't want to share his secrets... well we got 35 bluegill/sunfish keepers between 3 of us on nightcrawlers. He taught me to fish without a bobber, at about 12.5ft deep. For sure depth finder is key to success.

    Ron looks as happy as the cat in that photo! Enjoy the cousin visit!

    I hear the bachelor weekend was great for ds2.

    Lee, I'm sure whatever the bride and dw has planned will be fab!

    Skip do you enter the Vette in car Shows? Our immediate neighbor at the lake is a 1970 Chevelle convertible high performance car owner gear head. He does a lot of shows...

    Well boohoo for me on the work day monday...ugghhh
