Good old 1973. Much simpler times. All I had to worry about were my yellow skidoo snowmobile/sled covered with Budman stickers, or my red plastic firehat.

 

Yeah, I knew how to laugh, but I did not do it much..

Still kickin. Made my rounds, all is well. 3.5 hrs left...

 

Well, 70 channels and nothing to watch. Glad I don't pay $60 a month for this garbage. Gonna pop in Band of Brotheres I guess. Birds are starting to chirp. All down hill from here.

 

My LCpl is snoozin... still quiet...

Few more...

 

Mornin pot is on... where you at, Scotty? Where's all that trash you were talking about getting up earlier than me?

 

Where's he at? I thought you were watching him while he slept all night?

 

Nope. I can't tell if he's comin or goin most the time, and I don't want to watch the wrong end all night.

Besides, one of his fellow sasquatch should look after him...

 

An' if you guys put as much effort into WORK as you do all this idle chatter, sumpthin' might actually get DONE around here!He means the one that uses a stick an' a rock; the stick to make the drawin' on the cave floor and the rock to crush what he jus' drawed! YOU said you were takin' night watch... Whatsa matter now? Lookin' to bail out when the goin' gets tough? That's a secret dream of his, but don't tell no one! I told him I'd keep that info quiet.Welllllll.... what concerns me the most is what you consider to be the 'wrong end'! And there's only ONE of me, so I have no 'fellow sasquatch' that could look after me!

Got up at 0500 an' after I woke up Hat, (oops, I wasn't s'posed to say anything!), went out an' cleaned stalls, fed hosses and put 'em out for the day. Now I got the whole day to work on the new log splitter... right after I draft the letter to our boarders lettin' 'em know the board rate's goin' up!

New coffee's ready. No one's touched the tea's yet.

Morning y'all. Everything working fine. Must have been queer electrons.
Trying to rain. Don't mind from not having to set up a 25 ft pool for the daughter, do mind cause I can't work on what I need to do.
Gotta try and get something done before the bottom falls out.

Good morning everyone. Nice outside today, they said 81* and sunny. Nothing important to do today. I hope it stays that way.

 

STILL kickin...

One of the Marines on a deployment missed the movement... I have a bad feeling that he won't be a LCpl much longer...

Doin stuff at home.

I'll have some of that tea.

 

Mornin mornin.

Sprinkled overnight and is going to be a nice day. Breeze blowing to keep things cool.

Have to finish putting the mower deck on the ridum today. Wash the truck, pickup a few groceries maybe do some work on the yard. That should keep me out of trouble for part of the day.

Sausage and hotcakes with homemade chokecherry or black currant syrup for breakfast with a couple pots of coffee should do.

Scott whats the going rate for board in your part of the country? Just wondering cause the daughter had ours over in a stable so she could ride when it was sub zero temps. (-30*C) She was paying 250$ a month outside. Had his own paddock so he wouldn't get chewed on.

SR hows the mill coming along. Got it all together yet?

Wife is calling me to go eat then it's get cleaned up go to church. Have a good day drive safe and have fun. Later...

 

I miss one once in awhile too but no one ever demoted me for it. The cramps are enough of a punishment. I didn't realize the Corps were THAT strict!

Right now, we get $280/month for full board; out in the AM, in in the PM, 3 feeds a day, clean & re-bed stalls daily, full use of the facility & property. And we aren't the cheapest by far.

Mid-day coffee's ready.

chaikwa.

 

good morning folks.
good news is everyone is unhurt and the vehicle drove away after a little persuasion on the radiator support
Bad news is my daughter took out a power pole with the Trooper last night.
