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.

Mornin' BBB
Exhausting weekend judging a hunt test, but enjoyable. Our spaniel club is a bit dysfunctional, but we had good cover and conditions and all went pretty smoothly in spite of inter club disagreements. Lots of good dogs and people.
Hope Skip and Carrie are having a wonderful time.
Baby Tony sounds like he has a doting grandma.
Fabulous photo of you and yer mum, Dave. She looks very happy and healthy.
I too, am curious about DMIL, Sam.
I do not want to talk about the Yankees. 8 games in a row. Wishing I was a Braves fan. DW, who is a die hard Yankee aficionado, has even lost all hope. Fan Duel betting has given them 0% chance of winning the world series. Safe bet.

Good morning.
On Saturday morning, I went to the synagogue for services. Built in 1938 and everyone moved away as the neighborhood deteriorated. They still get together on Saturday mornings though.
Went to the new central market thing they have here in town yesterday and they had a beer garden and antique cars on display.
Today it's back to work and I think I've found my new remote work location for this trip.

Morning BBB
Got up at 5:30 for our daily exercise,probably a bike ride, and now it's pouring rain. Oh well now I get a jump on the day.
We made good progress on planning NZ and had a call with dad and Missy to make sure they still plan on coming. Today I'll search harder for their flight and maybe we will nail down an itinerary.
Our cruise is only 44 days away. We won't have internet for 18 days so need to get planning.0 -
Good morning BBB friends.
My mom is pretty frail but is quite sound mentally. That is a great blessing.
Cool photos, Lou. Hope your mother-in-law is tolerating her treatments.
I sympathize with Yankee fans. Now you can start to appreciate how the rest of the baseball world lives, with ups and downs. Mariners are on an up, right now. A few weeks back, we were hoping to make a wildcard slot. Now we're focused on catching Texas and winning the West. Hottest team in baseball for the last two months. Could this be the year they finally make it to the World Series?
Comfortable temps, today, but we are paying for it with some dense smoke in the air, from several large forest fires.0 -
G'Morning~
- Great pic of your Mum, Lou! Great she is so vibrant at that age!
- Pics of AB & Babe on the trial?

- Back is REALLY hosed. But fighting through it.

Good morning BBB Friends.
- I had breakfast with the ROMEOs.
- We have a hot week in store. A beach somewhere would be nice.
- Sounds like the girls in CT had fun this weekend.
- A coffee / beer bistro. Interesting.
- Looks like they sold another house on your street Skip.
- I am reminded of an old song that said something like It don't rain in Southern California, but when it pours, it pours.

Good afternoon BBB
All the above reads great and I'm glad you all seem to be starting the week out Right!
I'm knee deep in emails and 3 new purchase orders. My month end sales is looking spectacular, especially since I've been gone a week.
I best go0 -
Good Afternoon,
Grandkids are great till they become TEENS, then it will be payback to your children.
DW went to see DMIL Saturday, she had a place on her leg in which the home had already called DW about. DW told DMIL to leave bandage alone so leg could heal. Saturday afternoon home called DMIL had pulled dressing off leg and tore skin worst and they could not get to stop bleeding, DW goes over there and bandages leg and tells her not to touch till Sunday night when she should get a bath; few hours later Saturday home calls DMIL did not like bandage and wanted redone. DW is ticked now, she took bandages and redressed her leg so she has not been back to check on her mother. I may go by later since DW is having her Emmaus group here tonight.
As Dennis said very HOT and HUMID here all week, slim chance of rain possible Saturday.
Great picture of you and mom Dave.
If I could work in Bistro with beer I may not have retired.
Sorry you had to leave lake Mary; but sounds as you had a good time with family.
Skip, enjoy Florida with DW; may DBIL and DSIL realize what you deal with daily from DMIL.
Lee, hope you get a stipend for judging. Thats a lot of driving and time.
Steph, envious of your and Ron's travels, but appreciate your post and pictures where we can see through your post and pictures on Facebook.
I'll like to be out in Kelly's pool with a box of cool ones.0 -
Good afternoon.
In my pool is exactly where I was with a cold beer too. Good guess Sam! It’s so daggone hot here. I might get back in the pool either before or after dinner. I’m hoping the mil situation gets resolved.
Dave, glad to know that your mom is doing well.
My back too is super sore as is my knees. Why? Because I started a worm farm yesterday and was digging and digging in the hot heat. On the bright side 1# from WW goal. Ha. Enjoy your vacation.
Steph. All
Your travels sound so fun. We’ve got a cruise booked in February and Florida in May. April is the wedding.
Lou, looks good. Cool car. My grandma had one that looked just like that one. It was cold after she died. They didn’t take very good care of it.

Although I was judging, I was able to run Lucy for a qualifying score at the Master level on Saturday. Babe already has a double title at the Master level.
