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

    Starting to seriously plot my trek to Colorado and making dog friendly motel reservations. I'm thinking my first night will be in or near Indianapolis (my birthplace), then somewhere on the Kansas side of KC for the second night.
    Yarn shop photos are a must!
    Love the photo with the Godkid!

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning

    Happy yarn hunting, Dennis

    Hopefully the weather will be on your side driving, Lee! When do you leave?

    Cold continues here. Maybe warming to 30s by weekend.

    My new glasses and sunglasses are in, so I'll go pick them up after work today.

    Lou, remind me your dogs name...

    Sounds like a fun day Steph !

    Have a good day BBB

    Good morning BBB friends.

    So, the parts for the CRV are expected to "start" arriving the middle of next week. That stinks. Wish they had red 2022 CRV bumper assemblies sitting in the shelf, but that's too much to ask. I declined a rental car as being more hassle than it was worth, so the Tacoma is in the garage.

    Driving to Tacoma, today, for Rita to try to get some new glasses. She has some Lens Crafters frames that fit well, and she hopes they can put new lenses in them. I'll stop at the Red Wing store to buy some boot oil while we're up that way. The expensive Iron Rangers are working out well, but I need to protect them from winter's challenges. I saw a study yesterday that indicated that walking 160 minutes a day, at a 20-minute mile pace, will add 11 years to your life expectancy. I'm in for that.

    Morning BBB

    Dragonfruit farm tour was both educational and fun. The Italian fest with Mexican inspiration was delicious. I tried a bit of everything but didn't get seconds of anything. The beef pot roast was perfect. We don't eat much meat but if this was served everywhere I might change my mind.

    Today is gym, Spanish lessons and then Ron has a massage.

    I can't find my headphone jack adapter so going to search the condo while he is gone. I can't remember the last time I used them but pretty sure in the last month. I have Bluetooth aftershocks but I wasn't planning to take them to south America. 99f3nw900c5e.jpg

    Good Morning,
    Cool here,
    Great picture Steph and Ron.
    When one makes an appointment for repairs, I believe shop should order parts where they will be there when vehicle is scheduled to be in. Service is not what it was years ago.
    A yarn shop is a lot less than some shops, be Thankful! Though I agree could get yarn anywhere or order online.
    Hope Lou is enjoying continuing ed.
