Hope its not the same with these newer ones (got some strange pictures with the old ones).

I’m getting the heck out of here.

Well, I’m so anxious to leave I packed our bags last night.
Heading out the door for the Anchorage leg of the trip.
Than it’s a flight to Seattle for the birth of our first Grandson.

Didn’t tell the couple who are housesitting about the shrew problem.
If they hear voices in the night it’s not my fault.

Speaking of which, I think a may have won my battle against the shrews
because I haven’t seen a single one since yesterday.
They are soooo stupid.
Never should have tried matching wits with me.

Anyway, see you in a few weeks.
Good bye shrews, hello warmer weather.

Stupid luggage is heavier than I thought.
Wife must have put some extra stuff in them.

Bark, I don't want to know about those strange pics. The luggage is heavy because of the extra family members tagging along. Why do you think you haven't seen any shrews? And finally, congrats on the new grandbaby!

No trips for me, I despise fun. It is not mine at all, a neighbor's down the road. Mark's Minor Mechanics does not discriminate on what I work on. (mostly)

I don't see any duct tape... whatcha talking about? No, not standard issue, but they are some nice craftsman ones. I love them, too old to be on my knees on the pavement without them. (ok, let's hear it)

Airport Security: Sir please come with us. We have reason to believe you are smuggling an endangered species.

Bark: Did you open the suitcase? Please tell me you did.

Airport Security: Yes we did and the airport is now shutdown indefinately. Come with me.

Above the big "O" in the canyon this morning. Good thing, I gotta crawl under the 91 and replace the speedo adapter. Or maybe I can talk old sewer hose into doing it. He like laying around under vehicles.

Most likely broken. Only dipped into the -60s this weekend. Not quite what was posted on that sign. But it's a good pic to keep. Never know when you'll have to explain the whole global warming thing.


-33* today. A regular heat wave!

Except Stan ain't in paradise anymore.

Afternoon all. Still fighting with diagnosing a malfunctioning RV furnace. Might be cheaper to heat it by burning the money itself instead of spending it on new parts that don't fix the problem.

Bark - - you DON't want to take a whiz up there in the winter outside - - very bad things can happen. Don't ask me how I know. ............

AAAWWWW SHUCKS. .............

I am loved and didn't know it. Now I am embarrassed. Hey, off to church in the morning, then worked at the ranch the rest of the day. Looking good. Ready for final inspections - - thought it would never happen, but takes a while when you do so much of it yourself. Today, trying to get a new computer setup. Horrors - - forgot how long it takes to set it up, update it even though it is new, get used to Windows 7 from XP, solve glitches with some of my odd hardware, install the second monitor and get that all synced. All this and find out my super duper whooper 27"LED gorgeous monitor is kitty whoomped and they have to send me out a new one. Man that picture is wonderful when it works. Makes my second 24" LCD look pretty sick and I thought it was great. So, that is where I have been.

Hope all are well - - sorry about the cold stuff up there, Alaskans. It was 76 toiday - - just came in from an 8 mile bike ride in my shorts and Tshirt. Really nice out. NOw off to supper with a pretty blonde - - fun. See ya,

Bobby
