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.

No man can be condemned for owning a dog. As long as he has a dog, he has a friend; and the poorer he gets, the better friend he has.

    Mornin' BBB

    Oy. Rainy day in Connecticut. Gonna be a rainy week.
    Interesting developments in Russia. Wouldn't mind seeing an end to the Putin era, but certainly hope that if there is a change in power, it is not violent.
    Whew, thanks for knowing I am not a Dog Show person, Steph. We trialers and hunt testers are quirky enough.
    Prayers, Lou.

    BBB OP ;-)

    GM~

    Me and Tuck are up (can't seem to sleep past 6a anymore)! Ugh!

    We'll sip some coffee while doing some laundry then off to car wash to knock off the 7 days of rain we have received.

    No other plans today. Maybe go to range to smack some balls and clean garage floor.

    Lee - DDIL looking like she's going to pop soon! When is due date?

    SGM - hope the back isn't giving you too much trouble.

    Sending continued well wishes to your Mum and family, Lou. I have a feeling YOUR level is the same as MY level of "clean."

    Cheers,
    Skipper

    Original due date July 25th...probably sooner judging by the size of her belly.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Skip, when you go to the range you'r supposed to smack some targets. Just sayin'
    • A change of regeim in Russia could be a good thing. Ya never know though.
    • Made a run to Costco yesterday. I got, you know, stuff.
    • Stella is going out to play with Toad and Heidi today. We have a new bike joining us too. Heading to arguably the best BBQ joint in GA.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    OK, now I have to check out the news to see what you are talking about. It's only 5 a.m. here on the West Coast.

    Perfect weather, here, and we are heading out with DS and family to hike through a mile long lava tube in the Cascades. Rita was up at 4 frying empanadas for the road trip. I just had one. She hasn't lost her touch. The pastry in incredible. Sassy will be home alone for a long day. We'll leave her in the backyard.

    Morning BBB

    Love me an empanada. I should learn to make them as most in restaurants have things DH won't eat. ( adds to the list to make in Mesa...she has a gourmet kitchen with all the stuffs)

    The rain finally stopped yesterday about 4pm, so we walked up to the uptown area. They cone it off to traffic and have activities, food and music. It was a 6 mile round trip walk and worth a look. Trail was pretty muddy in spots so I doubt we will bike today.

    Good morning.

    After seeing mom at the hospital for myself, I'm not sure how much of what dad thinks he sees is real vs. wishing. He doesn't travel in a car on the Sabbath, so I'm heading over there to sit with her for a while.

    Good Morning,
    Beautiful day for a scooter ride, no rain expected today or tomorrow but getting near 90.
    Deer got into garden ate some okra plants and when I saw them they were munching on green tomatoes.
    Hope back is better Dave.
    Prayers for Lou's mom.
    Steph my DS believes the more mud the better, hose off outside then slip in backdoor.
    Being grandparents is great, get to spoil them then send them home; once they are older keep supply of snickers and cokes, provide to grand 30 minutes before parent comes to pick them up. Love telling DS and DD now you know what we delt with; payback.

    Gorgeous day in Indiana. High of 90

    Even better night last night. After fair parking,which I hate, we got some Mexican. Came home sat outside and had some bourbon on ice. It was splendid. Both the bourbon and the weather.

    Now, I’m pouting. Supposed to have lunch with friends and dh FORGOT to tell me about him and ds2 going to get a truck. He forgot too. Errrr.

    Prayers for your mom Lou.

    Mary. I hear summer fest is there!!!
