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.
Sam, where in Smokey Mountains are you going? Renting a cabin or staying at a resort?
Dennis, you are so right about those wild card playoff games. It's a no holds barred scenario. Fun to watch if you have no skin in the game. Tampa beat Oakland last night.
Yankees host Minnesota tonight for their 5 game series. Very similar teams. Both live and die by the long ball.
Steph? You sleeping in today?
Mt Rainier National Park is glorious. You have a really good eye for its beauty, Dave.
I love my job, but it has been brutal the last couple of weeks. So many cases of malignant tumors. Hard to remain objective. Give me a broken bone or torn ligament any day.
Did a follow up foot surgery on Tess yesterday for a chronic recurring painful corn. She is now in a splint for two weeks until the sutures come out. She'll be ready to go back hunting in 3-4 weeks. She is such a trooper.
Dog training today. BTG will run Babe in trials the rest of the fall and I probably won't attend any of them. I am too much of a distraction. I will see her on training days only.
Might go fishing this weekend.
BBB OP ;-)

Morning BBB
Our waterfall hike was a bust. We drove to where the trail was supposed to start but couldn't find it. We did stop at one right by the road. I didn't havey phone so will post a photo when Ron shares his.
There is a weekly art in the park in a nearby town tonight. We will probably go.
Have a great day all.

Good morning.
Re-entry was rough yesterday. It was like everyone had a stick and I was the piñata.0 -

Great analogy. Sorry it was unpleasant.0 -
Good Morning BBB.
Tom heads north today - he is flying so that he has more time to work up there. Easy Peezy.
Lee - all of the cancers in our pet breaks my heart - so much of it is preventable and/or avoidable. Hugs to Tess - she truly is a trooper.
Lou - welcome home - sorry about the rough re-entry.
Sam - send up pics when able - love the Smokey Mountains.
David - your pics continue to wow us.
Steph - how long are you committed to your current housing?
Do good out there everyone.0 -
Morning~
Poor Tess!
Lou - when is your last day in this location? How's the hunt in Houston coming along?
Tonight is game 1 of Nats/Dodgers (in LA) - gonna be a late night.

Good morning BBB crew.
I'll be pulling for the Nats, Skip. Anybody over the Dodgers.
Errands with Rita, today, then choir practice tonight.0 -
Good morning BBB Friends.
- Skip, I believe Lou is thankfully going to Austin, not Houston.
- I wonder if Babe is looking forward to retirement and staying home with Tess and her peeps.
- I got a flu and pneumonia shot yesterday. Yep, feeling less than 100% today.
- Lee, what would you advise a new puppy owner to feed their critter? We've had 3 Dachshunds. We were young and Mandy ate what we ate. Sarah ate mostly dog food but had lots of people treats. Emma is totally dog food (Iams) and dog biscuits. She loves 'ice cream' at night but hers looks a lot like a Milk-bone.
- Go Nats!

I need a lesson from Raine and Lee. What can we do to prevent cancer in our pets? I honestly have no clue, but I want to learn.
I love art in the parks! Have fun, Steph! Be inspired!
(((Lou)))) ... I'll bring some duct tape for you.
Sing pretty, Dave!
Rest up, Dennis. I hope you're feeling 100% again soon.
It's quiet here now, which is nice. I've done some laundry and cleaning this morning, and have my last WW workshop of the week soon, then Bible study tonight. Hugs all around!0 -
Been talking to a seasoned realtor about doing some part time marketing work for her, might give me an eye opener as to what it takes. And fulfill my side hustle search? We'll see, ball is back in her court. I do know I need change, so many ideas are swarming me LOL. Now Im thinking my porch pots, planters, window boxes, containers etc. could also assist in home sellers curb appeal, and could be changed out for the season as well... think folks would pay someone for such ? I need a market study! Also toying with an Industrial Park food truck business, that has my wheels spinning too. Around here, Food Trucks gravitate to serving the big city downtown areas, festivals, parks, events, etc. Out in the burbs by me, there are industrial parks with no food for purchase options close by, other than the gas station/truck stop convenience store for workers, a 10 min. drive away. I could come to them at break times that are staggered so to hit a few companys.... ??? Keep the menu options short, yet appealing, and all ready to grab, pay and go when I pull up. I could do in home cooking/prep and load the truck. I need to find more out about the village, county and state license requirements and laws etc. I could get a used truck for about 50K. The small business admin offers some startup seminars for free, might be what I do over the long winter...
Dennis, trade in phone support for in person support for breakfast! Are you getting a new puppy !!!! ???
Hope your dn fairs well with the minor surgery, Steph. Its hard when the littles are going thru stuff! Got an idea as to when and where you'll move onto?
Dave, please keep Mr. Winter over there for another couple months, thank you. And thanks for sharing your area and glorious hikes with us.
Kelly, the dogs just needing extra attention, they missed their people and don't want you to leave them again?
Sam, I've always wanted to go to the Smoky Mountains, still do! Where are you staying? Where is dmil staying - or home alone?
Skip, I'll cheer for you and your Nats, though I'm not cheering for much else in DC. I vote clear the entire board on both sides and start new LOL. Like that would ever happen.
Lee, Im sure Tess appreciates you fixing her up. Will you breed Babe again?
Lisa, hoping dd28 is better, and her littles are doing well too.
Stay warm, stay cool, stay dry, most importantly be happy, be kind and be safe!0 -
Good afternoon
Lou, in hope the stick doesn’t get you in the butt.
Found beautiful huge mums along the roadside $6.50. Bought 2 yesterday. Went back and got 3 more. It’s an honor system. Put money in a cardboard box. Ha. I love it.1
