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.

    Meeting with potential buyer for our wee practice this morning. Just exploratory, but DW is looking to hand over the reins in 3-5 years.

    Then off to see Babe and BTG.

    How did fundraiser go, Skip? The candidate sounds almost too good to be true. Why am I so suspicious of politicians/politics? Necessary evil, I guess.

    Those flowers and arrangement are beautiful, Mary.

    The more monitors the better, Lou. Wish I had three instead of one.

    Lots of rain yesterday and then it was uber muggy, but much cooler this am. Hoping it the humidity drops for our trial this weekend. So far, we still have enough entrants to run the trial. That reminds me, I need to get a hotel room for Saturday night.

    BBB OP ;-)

    Good morning.

    A second monitor is already a game changer, Lee. It was really humid here too and the rain took it away. Now it's supposed to be a cool day today - maybe mid 70's.

    Morning~

    Tomorrow is the soiree for candidate. I hope things go smooth. I checked on the catering order yesterday (gut feeling). Glad I did. The online order I had a receipt for didn't transmit to to the store......phwwwww. Should be set now.

    LATE night watching our LLWS boys. Tough but scrappy loss 12-9 v. Hawaii. First loss for them in some time. They play LA tonight. Will likely watch from home.

    DW birthday today.

    cheers,
    Skip

    Good Morning BBB.
    Traded my HD Street Glide in yesterday and got a new 2019 HD Heritage - lighter bike and better suited for me but still long ride worthy. I'll probably pick it up Saturday.
    Lee - good luck with the meeting and enjoy AB
    Bill - always follow you gut.
    Lou - enjoy the second monitor.
    Mary - beautiful flowers
    Sam - those yoga students are lucky to have you.
    Do good out there everyone.

    Good Morning,
    Multiple monitors so one can see things that we use to do in spreadsheets that could be laid out side by side, other than cut and paste or insert, wonder have we progressed that much? Well now with multiple monitors one can multi task keeping up with several entities at once as well as confusing and mixing up entities. Sounds like more confusion and frustration. No wonder folks look so forward to retirement. And they say stress can be good.
    Congrats on new ride Raine, now are you going to take time to enjoy it? How about a sidecar for Jack?
    Beautiful flowers Mary
    Way to go Kelly expanding skills!
    Steph, awesome; time will pass very fast
    Only 99 here yesterday, very muggy this morning; Need rain and cooler temps
    Enjoy the Day,
    Sam

    Hooray Raine. I bet this will be a better fit.

    Last night we took the bikes and rode the river trail in DT Boise the. Listened to an outdoor concer by the Navy jazz band.

    Today working all day in Boise the headed to Idaho falls for the night. Work pays but wanted to be closer to the Tetons to save time tomorrow after work.

    Good morning BBB Friends.
    • Steph, Idaho Falls should be abuzz. Their Bandits won the American Legion World Series this week.
    • Raine. DW had a Heritage. She sold it when battling breast cancer. I'll attach a picture.
    • Never had two monitors on one PC. Multiple PCs but that's another story. Enjoy.
    • Happy birthday to your DW Skip.
    • Our break in the weather doesn't come until Sunday. Looking forward to it.

    Good morning BBB crew.

    OK, Raine, you made me go to the Harley Website to look. Very nice.

    My experience with multiple moniters: in my last job, as editor of the Fort Lewis weekly newspaper, I had an Army PC on one desk and the publisher's Apple computer on the other side of my narrow office. I'd swivel back and forth between them.

    Very a-typical weather, here, for August. Cool and damp. El Nino is officially over, in the Pacific, they say. Still, the rain is how we grow these big trees.
