They've got two waiting for me when I get back. A GI 45 1911 in OD Green and a Raging 30 carbine eight shot revolver. Can't wait.

I'm up but not necessarily "at 'em". Still waking up.
Today is my Friday too
Not sure yet as to how to waste tomorrow but I bet I can come up with something. If one of my huntin' lease partners takes the day off, we are going to the range so when the time comes, we can lay the smack down on bambi or a little piggy.
Get to take a mandatory safety class on "personal protective equipment". My wife thought they were going to teach us how to use, well, umm, "protection" if ya' know what I mean.

Drinkin' and prayin' for Bob (and lots of other folks)

Hey, I'm teaching one of those classes today for the Eaton Corp. Kinda dry material for those of you that've been doing PPE since forever, but it's mandatory so I TRY to make it interesting.

Shovelhead, 'Lemon crumb cake'? Not a very manly breakfast, (like week old donuts!), but make sure you leave a piece or two for the janitor!

's done, I gotta run. (Hey, that rhymes!)

chaikwa.

Well, it is a gorgeous morning here today - - a little too nice. Makes you a little uneasy - - something must be in the "wind". Oh yeh, her name is Wilma. Never believe I may be hammered in a couple days. Rains start this afternoon, so out to the patio and pull in all the furniture, down with the statues, in with the plants, trimmed palms some yesterday to reduce stress on the trees. Mercy, came home too soon. Watching her close - - may hook up the fiver and head to the north a hundred or so miles and wait it out. We will see - - our home is only five years old, so it does have most of the latest wind requirements. Just tooooooo much glass. Some one of these years I must invest in some glass protection. Hmmmm, when should I do that???? Oh, maybe today.

Spheres? NOPE, no way, big boy. You haul your own spheres. A couple more weeks and you will be shoveling and have no time for the spheres.

What paint brush??? Don't know which end to use for what.

More before starting the hauling and moving begins. Hate this.

This is the nicest pheasant opener I've seen in a long time... and guess where I'm stuck. Chaikwa, your fax broke? Or can't you slice that coffee off thin enuff?

Poet and didn't know it

All is fine north of the line.

Dear Bobbyspherechallenged, next time you come through, lets make a point of taking a few days so I can show you and your lovely wife around. I think you would be surprised as to what lays hidden in these bald flat prairies. There are some real cool oasis like get aways.

Its raining here today. I wish it would stay away.

Everyone be safe not sorry. Don't want to hear bout sumtin gorry.

Scotty

Nice afternoot

Hi all,

In Portland OR. Nice fall afternoot, leaves falling from the trees, I let them rest in peace.
Piged out at Big Reds BBQ last night, ribs, brisktet, taters and corn. Then went to see "Corpse Bride with daughter, fun nite.
Made bacon, eggs, hash browns and sourdough bread toast for b'fast. Yum.

Flash, Teaching g'daughter to ast for the two cookies, but the second one is for me, not the carpet.
Also teaching her the name for fast food joint hambergers is "ratburgers."
Asnwer to the question "can you pick up your toys," is always "yes". but dont mean that she will.
It is a lot of fun with her.

Fiver, be safe out there, get while the gettin is good. My wife taped up our big glass picture window at the house in Seatle when a tornado was forcast. You might consider that.

Geeeze, if it wasn't for bad luck, some would have no luck at all.
I did not win the power ball lottery yesterday, but the winner is from Oregon.

Have fun,

Davey
