Mornin' gang,
Finally got some Inet at my son's house here on Whidbey Island. Feel like I am back in civilization. It was gorgeous up on Mt. Baker and the trees are wonderful around here. But wow, my orange juice in my Florida blood is freezing. It was warmer in Alaska.
All looks normal around here - - Bark is still confused and color blind, Chaikwa is still sarcastic, Shorts is still short. Oh well, guess that is why ya'll let me hang around a bit - - just a bunch of crazee nuts. Fun, ain't it.
OK, gone - - son thinks I need exercise, so off I go. Ya'll be good.

Keep having fun.

Dang, I wish I would have thought of that one.
Its not fair when bad things happen to good people. We had friends who bought a chicken farm in Iowa.
Dispite a lot of research and past experience every possible thing that could go wrong did.
Now they are back minus their 60 years of life savings and are in debt.
Thats why traveling with sheep is easier. They can share the same bed and bathroom (so I have heard).

There is no G. There is no G. Repeat after me, THERE IS NO G!
Bob, give WI a big ol' hello for some former inhabitants. Any chance you're floating through Oak Harbor? If so, give a wave to the mighty P3.

Shorts,
Flying space A into NASWI in the early 60's with my Dad. He picked up the phone to see if he could get a ride from the shuttle to the room.
Two shuttles showed up quick and treated us like royalty.
Later he figured it out.
When he had called he had identified himself as a Captain.
He was but he was a Captain in the AF not the Navy (big difference in Rank).

Evening all.
Got the staircase from the main floor to the loft in the new living quarters area completed today. Now I can resume framing walls. I'll have to go cut down more trees before I can do that tho as I'm all out of 2X6's. I'll post some pics later if I have time and don't fall asleep on the couch!

STIHL thinking you have a chain saw, I see my brother Scott.

(be safe, can't wait for pics)
safe travels hidingfromhurricaneBob...
Tallguy, yup- loving all the fresh veggies/fruits out west! heck I even enjoy cooking every day.
Fronty, i'll take the .45 rounds AND the Colt auto. I am being introduced as the wolf whisperer. then they tell me they think he is insane. begs for attention then attacks. what part of wild wolf did they not understand.
had a us army vet here in camp, 5 tours in the sand. might be related to the wolf.
FACT: if the US Army hits or kills a camel in Iraq, the owner is paid 15,000 dollars.
hung out with the mustangs this AM, on TANK my horse (not a DTR member).
I cannot think of anything more relaxing, then the open pit mines started the dynamite series... sheesh

Morning all.
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4th:
1781 - Los Angeles, CA, was founded by Spanish settlers. The original name was "El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora La Reina de Los Angeles de Porciuncula," which translates as "The Town of the Queen of Angels."
1825 - New York Governor Clinton ceremoniously emptied a barrel of Lake Erie water in the Atlantic Ocean to consummate the "Marriage of the Waters" of the Great Lakes and the Atlantic.
1833 - Barney Flaherty answered an ad in "The New York Sun" and became the first newsboy/paperboy at the age of 10.
1882 - Thomas Edison's Pearl Street electric power station began operations in New York City. It was the first display of a practical electrical lighting system.
1886 - Geronimo, and the Apache Indians he led, surrendered in Skeleton Canyon in Arizona to Gen. Nelson Miles.
1888 - George Eastman registered the name "Kodak" and patented his roll-film camera. The camera took 100 exposures per roll.
1899 - An 8.3 earthquake hit Yakutat Bar, AK.
1917 - The American expeditionary force in France suffered its first fatalities in World War I.
1921 - The first police broadcast was made by radio station WIL in St. Louis, MO.
1944 - During World War II, British troops entered the city of Antwerp, Belgium.
1957 - The Arkansas National Guard was ordered by Governor Orval Faubus to keep nine black students from going into Little Rock's Central High School.
1957 - The Ford Motor Company began selling the Edsel. The car was so unpopular that it was taken off the market only two years later.
1967 - Michigan Gov. George Romney said during a TV interview that he had undergone "brainwashing" by U.S. officials while visiting Vietnam in 1965.
1983 - U.S. officials announced that there had been an American plane, used for reconnaissance, in the vicinity of the Korean Air Lines flight that was shot down.
1989 - A reconnaissance satellite was released by the Air Force's Titan Three rocket. The Titan Three set over 200 satellites into space between 1964 and 1989.
2003 - Keegan Reilly, 22, became the first parapalegic climber to reach the peak of Japan's Mount Fuji.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
If I had a dollar for everytime I got distracted, I wish I had some ice cream.
Coffee's ready.

Jeez, over 2 hours since I opened up the breakroom for the day and no one has even been here yet? This isn't a good sign. The holiday is OVER, time to get back to work!
