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.

It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

    Good Sunday morning BBB Friends.
    • Long day on the motorbike yesterday. Had some good BBB and rode over 300 miles, some of it in some extreme mountain twisties. My big bike is not made for that.
    • Apple PC that runs our church service slides crashed last night. Time to pull out the hymnals.
    • How did the engagement party go?
    • Have a good day BBB.

    WOW! Rare to hear about an Apple crash! I wonder if the employee return to work uprising was culprit - they're mad!

    Hope engagement party went well! Highlights?

    Rainy soupy day here in the National Capital Region.

    Meeting DB and fam for lunch and hopefully some Dover racing (though I suspect rainout).

    Cheers,
    Skipper

    Very wet morning here, should clear about 11 after we are back from church and being schooled.
    Rained most of night.
    Ate too much last couple of days, weight shows it.
    Hope engagement party went well and some stayed and helped clean up.
    Lou, good shopping
    Lee, hope rain subsides for training.
    Dave sing out,
    Steph hope you and Ron have a good hike

    Good morning BBB friends.

    We had a beautiful sunny day, yesterday, hitting 80 degrees. Today is overcast with a forecast high of 57. So it goes.

    Church this morning, then need to get after the lawn, this afternoon. I'm working on two slow projects in the shop, too.

    Morning BBB

    A few events on the calendar today. There is a fundraiser festival on the malecon (boardwalk) all day and a graffiti art demo at the skatepark. Plus it’s a Mexican holiday tomorrow so I assume it will be lively at the square too.

    Our doggy had an upset tummy and the indoor/ outdoor cat bolted home and hid for the better part of an hour yesterday so we just decided to stay home for their comfort yesterday. No one seems worse off today.

    Need to plan our few days in Guadalajara. Mostly find a walkable hotel that at least has a microwave. Hoping for a kitchenette but that’s probably wishful thinking in Centro in our price range.

    Good morning

    Enjoy Guadalajara! I inherited and have a double Mexican opal ring my Grampa bought my gramma on vacation there in the 70s.

    Onto granddaughter Lauren 's baptism now. Rainy day but God's graces will shine upon her.

    Hope everyone is well and has a good Sunday.

    Good morning.

    Cigars and bourbon went well yesterday. I helped Cecilia clean the house a bit for company we're expecting after dinner tonight.

    Not sure what's on tap for the day today, but I'm planning on taking most of tomorrow off for my birthday. I may go hit golf balls for the first time in 4 years.

    Packed house for the party. We knew 6 people. All others were their friends. It was a huge success. The weather was nice. Front porch and back patio was even used.
    We were pooped.
    Today I cleaned the floors again and the 1/2 bath. I put ribs in the oven on slow cook. Made homemade potato salad and pasta salad. We skipped lunch.
    We are still pooped and old.
    In 2 weeks we will be in Florida. Woo hoo.

    Since tomorrow is a school day and all, we're taking a small group of friends to a Brazilian pizza place tonight, Kell.

    The party table is set for when we get back. Note the Malört front and center.
