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.

“The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor."

-U.S. Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger, June 19, 1865

    Good morning.

    Heading to Louisville on Thursday for a quick 3-day trip. Things aren't going well there and the little voice in my head says to get up there.

    Good Morning,
    Rainy day in Georgia.
    Prayers for mom and family Lou.
    Problem when kids come it means more work for mom and dad.
    Took DMIL's chairs, refrigerator and small bed side table over Saturday, DW will take her and her clothes tomorrow, lots of paperwork had to be done.
    Off to yoga then pick up DGS from library and take home. DW has her quarterly hematologist appointment this morning.

    Good luck with the DMIL move.

    Safe travels Lou. I hope you can be a help.

    Rainy forecast all week here but mostly afternoon or evening showers. Hoping to get a super long ride in today. Goal is Mt Vernon which is 35 miles one way. There are dozens of good lunch options there. We will see if I'm up to that yet.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    I hope the trip helps, Lou.

    Father's Day was very nice. We ended up at DS's house, for burgers and strawberry shortcake. DDIL's folks were there, too. Fun Good food and fun times - and home by 7:30.

    A little shop time, I think, this morning.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Things getting back to normal here, I had breakfast with the ROMEOs.
    • Sam, I hope your DMIL enjoys her new home. Your house will be different.
    • Listen to the little voice Lou. I hope your trip goes well.
    • I'm glad there is nobody from CO here. I'd have to apologize for how our Braves treated their Rockies over the weekend.
    • That's quite a trek you have planned Steph. Stay dry and safe.
    • I hope our WI land baron made it home safely.
