Mornin' BBB.
Super busy.
Pool looks great. They really did a nice job sodding.
Lisa, praying for you and DD28.
Mary, so the pontoon boat has no home?
Steph, the dock for the pond looks like it will be super stable with that heavy steel frame. I bet the heat would be less tolerable without the wind, but that is a lot of wind.

Good morning BBB Friends.
- That's going to be a heck of a pier/dock/platform Steph. I had to look up BNSF. That was a new one for me. I learn things from this group. Now I know how you get your BH discount.
- You've got a lot going on Mary. Don't let it get you down.
- How's Bob and Dave doing out on the coast?
- DW just had her yearly mammogram. Always a nervous time. I have to remind myself that we don't worry about what ifs.
- Have a great day BBB. I know Sam is enjoying the sun

Good morning.
My calves are barking after 3 days of 20k+ steps each cramming in an audio book assigned as homework in advance of our retreat today.
They gave us a real book, but I can't sit still long enough to read books on management philosophy. If it's not interesting, I'm a slow reader. With audio, someone spoon feeds it to me much faster.0 -
Morning BBB
Dock is finished and although dad worked on bridge and building crew for 50 years it did sink a little at the end. He assumes the pipe cut into the cement since he didn't fill the inside. He has plans to fix when she water drain this fall The kids love it anyway. Photo is two oldest nephews with the first 3 sections.
You are right...BNSF (Burlington Northern Santa Fe) is how we get the BH (Berkshire Hathaway) discount. Dad has had shares since the acquisition in 09. We recently bought some baby B shares with our stimulus money.
Wind changed direction overnight so it should be more seasonal and 85 instead of 100 today. Hopefully will blow less too. Kids lost both tubes And one noodle to the wind yesterday. Except for the kayaks all pond toys come from dollar general since they don't last long.1 -
Morning BBB
Well Petals n Planters got the job. Turning a backyard new patio into a cozy oasis. With creating more privacy, seating, cozy party lights, some new potted plantings and moving some other plants and adding to them, adding a small herb veggie garden out kitchen area porch, if I can get plants, add a bistro coffee seating set on the back porch, and decorating the large front porch for the 4th of July.... should be fun!
Today is writing my proposal. Helping ds2 with some packing.
My outlook windows file is messed up. I've tried to run repair tool numerous times, no fix???
We will dock our boat on the pier across from the yard where our glamper is parked. We have the best friends at the lake, the OTHER group of neighbors!!!
Be well BBB

Good morning BBB crew.
All this talk of lakes and ponds. I visited some lakes, yesterday, but had to work to get there and back: 16 miles of hiking and 3,070 feet of climbing, in Olympic National Park. All that flat, open Nebraska countryside, with no mountains or trees, would drive me crazy. But then I have read of settlers in the 19th century, who did go nuts out there.
Here's where I ate my lunch, sitting on the same log I have enjoyed for the last four years.

I’m pooped. Good night0 -
Thank you all for the prayers! It got worse before it got better, but today she called and asked if she could come over. (well, technically she had Anabelle call, but still) She apologized and said that she realizes she blew everything up way beyond what it was and that she's finally decided she needs help. She got a list of counselors who are covered by her insurance, and she's going to call someone. Praise God! She so needs mental help, and this incident helped her to see that. It was really hard for us all, but SO WORTH IT if she truly gets the help she needs now.
I'm saying a prayer for your dw right now, Dennis.
Good idea on the audio book, Lou!
The dock looks GREAT, Steph!
That design job sounds like SO much fun, Mary!!! Tell us all the details as you go so I can enjoy it vicariously with you, okay?
WOW, David! 16 miles? That's a LONG way! But the view is phenomenal.
The beach looks incredible, Sam!
Rest up, Kelly. Hugs!0
