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.

    Glad DB is doing OK, Dennis. Guess the docs have some adjustments to make with his meds.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Happy Birthday Mama Moody.
    • I have a German birth certificate and a English translation, certified by the US Embassy. But, that was a long time ago and I was not born on a US base.
    • We'll need pics of the firepit Skip.
    • I hope to get a motorbike ride in today.

    Good morning.

    So the HOA will allow a fire pit but no pool? I hate them already, Skip.

    As long as they don't go with one of those fashionable names like Brayden the kid will be fine, Lee. A name like Wadsworth Dinwiddie looks good on company letterhead. It's like a guarantee of being a lawyer or CEO.

    Weekend plans here are light again. May have another bourbon and cigar thing. And a trip to Costco to re-supply Cecilia.

    Good morning BBB friends.

    Our son was born in a U.S. hospital in Stuttgart. At that time, we could have registered him with the local authorities, which would have granted him German citizenship. As Rita was still a Philippine citizen, David Jr. could claim citizenship in three different countries. German citizenship was seen as problematic then. All young German men were subject to conscription into the Bundeswehr - the German armed forces - so we didn't register DS with the locals, just with the U.S. Consulate.

    We left Sassy in the house for a few hours yesterday. As she has been very reliable lately, she was not gated into the kitchen, but had free run of the house. When we got home, we found she had chewed up a small calculator Rita uses, as well as a $50 prepaid debit card the cable company sent me in recognition of my military service. I just activated the card that morning. Guess we'll be back using the gate again.

    Its state fair time here, but we are not going this year. At least not this weekend. Yeap heading to lake.

    I made zucchini brownies to bring and share with the lake neighbors and zucchini grower. Pretty good actually!

    Morning BBB

    Ron is running a low grade temperature today so the plan is to just do a casual bike ride around the adjacent neighborhood since it's been 3 days since a real ride ( tire problems on Wednesday and Thursday is sleep in day) we have found if we skip too many days we get more issues with sitbones.

    Looks like a perfect day for a swim.

    Good Morning,
    Happy Birthday to Kelly's Mom
    I remember when a good bourbon or scotch and cigar was good.
    Enjoy lake Mary,
    Hope Dennis has a good bike ride and rain holds off,
    Poor Sassy back to confinement,
    Training does not sound like a fun filled day.
    Glad all is well with the Dinwiddie's in Germany.
