I'll stay home and prep for my next work week as I am heading down to Hilton Head Island on the 26th when the madness is over for my monthly boat fix fix.


Let's go Brandon

I feel for you. Very good advice.

Our VFW Post has cancelled our Memorial Day ceremony that we traditionally hold. It is unfortunate that it will be our last as our small post can not fill our officer slates any more and we are merging with a neighboring post. Yesterday four of us put out the flags for veterans at 4 cemeteries we put the flags out for. On Memorial Day a small group of us will drive to these cemeteries say a prayer and offer our firearm salute.
After that I plan on planting garden if we stay dry.

Thinking about having a yard sale where I would be selling all my traps and trapping equipment at rock bottom prices.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Munderf, happy birthday to you all.

No clue, everywhere outdoors is going to be packed since some restrictions are being lifted. Might smoke some ribs.

I see the flags are up at the cemetery but Have heard no word on any commencements.

kids are not in school so no band or parade.

probably try and get the last of the garden in , no shortage of work to do around here


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Having our daughter and a friend of hers over for dinner. Wife's grocery shopping today and getting all sorts of meats for the grill. Chicken, burgers, hotdogs, sausage, shrimp, scallops. We may go vegetable free this year and just do a big tray of meat and seafood. Looking forward to it.

When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.
