Lazy? I've been up since 6:30, fed two dogs, made breakfast, got the KDP tools out for this morning's victim, and read 3 pages of new posts and you have the nerve to call me lazy?

I've been up since 0500, let the dogs out (twice) read the paper, downed a pot of coffee, took wifey out for breakfast, & took a nap.

It's been a busy day.

Don't you guys know that a boat costs more than our trucks? All that work for just a couple months of fun. I don't know about you.


Wait a minute. Just remembered... I'm on boat number 7. We just ain't right

Have a good week. Wx guessers are talking about rain again.

What do you mean a "couple months fun" on the boat? Twelve months fun down here in Florida. HEY, quit throwing stuff and kicking up that tail.

Just got back from a great week in Breckenridge, CO. Interesting to go from sea level to 9600 and try to hike. It was sure a beautiful time of year up there - - flowers everywhere. Really nice.

Have a good one,

Will now get to spend 3-4 hours today jumping through paperwork hoops so I can perform my job. (which won't be getting done 'cuz of the hoop-jumping)

Morning.
Update,.......after running home to chase down all the "required" paperwork yesterday, waiting 20 minutes to enter my name onto the list to be able to sit in the waiting area, waiting for an hour for my name to be called, I found out I didn't need any of the paperwork as they would not allow me to register my vehicle as I'm "just a contractor" (worked here everyday for the last 16 years ).
They then indicated I could have taken care of this another way in about 15 minutes.
Gawd I love this place.
Note to self:
Avoid the folks that "Know the correct procedures" and call one of the "Big Dogs".

Hope today is better.

Have a great productive?? day.

Ed

Dennis - You been looking in my truck again??

Morning folks,

Back to the grind after almost three weeks off. It was nice, almost three weeks on the range.

Now I need to get the barrel replaced on my rifle. Almost 3000 rounds through it. Good thing I have a back up.

Still playing catch up, but it's time for another....

Some wicked T-Storms rolled through last evening.
Mother Nature provided one heckuva light show.

Slightly cooler temps this AM.

Coffee is still hot

Only two more days to go 'til a Loooong weekend.

Ya'll be careful out there.
