    Mornin' BBB.

    Happy Father's Day to all the dad's out there.

    Was gonna get boat out today but weather put the kybosh on that idea. More rain. Am sure I can get some things done around here. Babe is back with BTG. Just me and Tess and George and the cat. DW is in NYC at her sister's birthday dinner bash.

    Healing prayers continue for Tom. Does Jack like hospital food?

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning BBB crew.

    Praying continues for Tom and Raine.

    Nice pic, Doc.

    Grandkids were still making noise at 10:30, last night. They might sleep too late for us to make church, this morning. Hope it warms up enough, this afternoon, for us to break out the Slip 'N Slide. I love watching them play, and it is a great excuse to sit in the back yard and read a book.

    Good morning
    Dennis, that’s another reason we got rid of the bike. Too many people aren’t paying attention.

    Steph. Tell me again why you chose Puerto Rico??? I’m excited for you both. Congratulations

    Glad to hear Tom is doing better.

    Lee, just one knee needs replacing??

    Happy anniversary.

    Bad weather last night abd today. 4 tornado touchdowns. Not here. North of us and west of us. No deaths.
    I’ll cbl.

    Morning BBB

    Rain continues here at lake. Still having fun. Everyone still asleep except me and Maddie dog.

    Nice photo Skip & DW!

    I haven't been on the back of Toms ultra in well over 2yrs. I lost interest in it after my xh died. The older I get the less I like it. I worry about getting hit. My kids need not be orphans.

    Hope Tom is continuing to recover and he can be discharged this coming week. Take care Raine!

    Enjoy playing with the Gkids, Dave!

    Have a good day BBB .

    Left knee replaced two years ago...at that time I was advised it was only a matter of time for the right knee.

    Problem with bikes is serious injury is likely in case of any accident. Glad DS#1 got it out of his system with only scrapes and bruised ego. Now he is flying helicopters. To-mae-toe, to-mah-toe?

    Morning BBB

    Peurto Rico made it to the top of the list as you dont need passports or visas. Cheap shortish flight to/from Nebraska so better chance to have visitors. Many US laws but lower health care and many tax advantages. Amazon delivers there. Major chains we are used to like Costco and Ikea.

    And except for Irma and Maria they get very few hurricanes. Last major one before those was 75 years ago. And the temps year round is 75-85. Every single day.

    Packing up/purging office supplies now. Then need to make a list of what is going. We plan to move in 2 suitcases and two carry ons. And maybe a cooler.

    All of you have an open invite. 🌴🍹🌅

    Good afternoon BBB Friends.
    • My Sunday School presentation went well this morning.
    • What part of part of PR do you plan to settle in Steph? I am famaliar with San Juan and Aguadilla and there is a big difference.
    • It is obvious Skip married up. Happy Anniversary.
    • Beautiful picture Mary. There is something special about sunsets at the lake.
    • Continued get well wishes for Tom.
    • Emma got me a new Fitbit for FD. Now it is time to watch the Braves beat the Phillies. I won't get many steps in with that activity.

    Good Afternoon BBB.
    Headed to hospital early right after my power walk with Jack. I realized we had not walked since Tom landed in the hospital. Dumb. That morning exercise is the key to the day.
    Tom turned s corner today. He ate some real food and was unhooked from all lined except antibiotics every 6 hours. Started conversation about going home.
    I cut my visit short to avoid driving home in a rainstorm.
    I’ve read all the post and love you all.
    Watching golf and chilling.

    That’s great news Raine.

    Steph we’ve looked to move to a state that doesn’t tax retirement and/or no state income tax.

    Starting on the west coast. Near Rincon. Then moving to the east coast. Going to hop around until we find our spot. For now doing long term airb&b. That way we have electricity wifi etc. About the same cost as rent plus utilities.
