    G'Morning~

    Work this past few weeks has been blistering. A long 12-hour day yesterday for a national level exercise. All the "big wigs" were out and about. Tired today.

    Dennis REALLY cool you connected with a buddy of Roarke's at the ceremony! Hope you and the Boys State entourage enjoyed the twilight spectacle!

    DMIL results positive; DW not. Both still feel ill (not sick)/nausea mainly. Both are vaxx'd so I was surprised with DMIL. Still believe they got some bad food.

    Our pool tech dropped a bomb. Pool pump is broken. I didn't know. THANKFULLY it was covered under warranty! $1800 part and repair. Phwwwwww

    DW broke her iPhone and luckily too, AppleCare+ covered a new phone ($99 co-pay). Its always something.

    C'mon weekend. Its been a long week!

    Cheers,
    Skipper

    Wow. That’s a lot of money for a pool pump. Ours pooped out a couple years ago. We went to this small motor place and purchase a pool pump that is energy efficient for under $200.

    Hope everyone gets healthy.

    I’m off to battle some dirt.

    Good morning.

    Refuah shlema for DW & DMIL, Skip.

    We're going out to a Mediterranean place for dinner tonight like a couple of rich Millenials - because it's a Thursday. Crazy!

    Good morning BBB friends.

    I loved my cataract surgery, Sam. It was a month between my eyes, though. I had to pop one lens out of my glasses to avoid headaches and read with one eye closed. Worth it, though.

    Hope the ladies get better quickly, Doc.

    Logging in from Astoria, Oregon. We will work our way down the coast to Newport today. The grandkids having fun. That's the big thing.

    Good morning

    Just got home, and driving southeastbound 2.5 hours with the sun rising, was a killer on my eyes. Even with my polarized RX glasses on. Next trip back to my home, I leave lake in later afternoon to come home.

    Enjoy the trip Dave, grandkids will remember these things for a lifetime. I know I do.

    Got to get busy....

    Be well BBB

    Morning BBB

    Happy vacationing Dave and family.

    Today is rest day from riding. Might do some standing ride drills this afternoon…it’s definitely a weak point in my riding. Going for a drive soon.

    Good afternoon BBB friends.
    • Wild last night meeting a friend of the Moodys and Capt. of an elite drill team unit to boot.
    • Senators on Capitol Hill this moring which gives me some quiet time to do some paper work and prepare for graduation and check-out. I hope to catch a nap.
    • Skip, with all you got going on at your house I am going to head home on Saturday. See you at Laka Anna next month.
    • Glad to hear you are getting the peepers tuned up Sam.
    • It's only money Lou.

    Afternoon BBB.

    Speedy recovery wishes indeed, Skip. I had to look up Rafuah Shlema, Lou.
    Next thing you know, your "Christine" will need new headers.
    HOT and HUMID dog training this am. Weather forecast lied. It was supposed to be cloudy and cooler. Babe was a heat resistant superstar as usual. Lucy was pretty good too.
    BTG surprised me with some beautiful tomatoes that he grew from seeds of tomatoes I gave him over the last couple of years.
    Yes, I think avoiding the COVID dysentery plague is a good idea, Sam.
