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
I know who you are Skip (and looking spry for a guy who just had back to back back surgery), but who is the other guy's costume supposed to be?
Even if I was to offered 20% below MSRP on a Defender, I would not make the deal unless I could write it off somehow.
New fridge arriving today. Old one's compressor died Friday night and we've been living out of ice chests.
Mexico has long been a good place to lay low.

Thx. DW still does most of the driving. First time enjoying a neighborhood soirée. Would you believe the tatooed costumed biker is a retired USMC 2 Star General. Great neighbor.
Ugh on fridge. Our friends’ sump pump crapped out (pun intended) yesterday. Offered to let them stay here. Oh well.
Got a solid $15k offer on my dad’s mustang yesterday. It’s worth $10. He declined. Still demands that it’s worth $20k. So it goes. Hardheaded.
Football and NASCAR today.
Cheers

Good morning.
With hindsight being what it is, I should have done the Ridgeline. I don't enjoy driving the Edge like I did my Fusion. And nothing has met how I felt about my 2-door Explorer Sport. I think I'm also reaching the point where climbing up into a truck isn't going to be practical for much longer with these old knees.0 -
Good morning BBB friends.
Surprised, yesterday, when I was able to watch most of the Ducks' game at Utah. We'll see if I can squeeze in some Seahawks time, today.
I still want a Tacoma, as a second vehicle, just to haul stuff and drive those logging roads. But can't justify the expense for something that would really just be a toy. I used to dream of a rag-top English sports car. Climbing up into a truck would be easier than getting in and out of a car where you're almost sitting on the pavement.

Good morning
33F outside and Tom is out there dealing with final move outside prep. Im putting final touches on inside where temp is 68F. A 34ft rv is definitely a big rig to deal with. imo. Can't imagine taking this thing all around and up into mountains etc. Permanently parked us feline by me. We should be a
R v storage lot then on way home, by noon if all goes well.
Prayers continue for Israel. Watching CBS special this morning is heartbreaking for the people of Israel.
Wheres Wilma? Skip0 -
I knew he was a 2 star from the bandana he had on, but just wondered if his biker attire and 'stach was suppose to be someone from a movie or TV show.
I traded in my Tacoma with 150K for $16K last year. Am sure there is an old Tacoma knocking around in your price range, Dave.0 -
Morning BBB
Watched my 17yo niece play volleyball and win a 5 set nail biter t9 punch there ticket to the state tournament next week. They were favorites but had a huge run for their money. So fun to watch. I don't think I can watch next week. At least it wasn't streamed last year but they only made round one LY. Should go further this year.
Stopped at some art galleries, a farmers market and beach pull offs yesterday on our drive. Ron had a really good day. He has been consistently sleeping 6ish hours and found some stretches that seem to help his lightheadedness. My sister is a PT and i thought we would call her today and see if she has any suggestions.0 -
Good Morning,
Back sliding Methodist today, have not even had a bath.
80's today and tomorrow.
Lightheadedness is caused by low blood pressure in many cases, but needs to be checked out; after about forty test they will tell you something whether right or not.
Lou, the way my DMIL selected her last two vehicles was she would open driver door and back her derriere up against seat, the vehicle with the least effort is one she selected.
Would like to have a pickup truck but will not fit in garage with DW's SUV and Toad and we are not allowed to park in drive overnight.0 -
Lee, the last time I bought a used vehicle was in 1978 - a '76 Oldsmobile Starfire - when I was a Soldier living in the barracks. I can afford a new Tacoma, just can't justify spending that much.0

Good morning BBB Friends,
- I've been churched and schooled.
- Had a nice lunch ride yesterday. Great weather.
- Hmm, I didn't think the General was wearing a costume.
- Boys need their toys Dave. I think I had a yellow '76 Oldsmobile Starfire.
- Now I am hearing Willie Nelson singing "All my friends went to Mexico".
