Title: Last Tuesday Lounge in May, 2025
Post by: jbvb on May 27, 2025, 07:20:20 AM
Good morning, all.  On my way out I thought to open the lounge: Urn is heating up with Tie Crane blend, hot water for tea or cocoa, fruit, cereal, rolls and pastries on the counter.

The NH seacoast is clear and headed for the 70s. Modeling today is unlikely: first to Seashore for track work, then home to a Selectboard meeting postponed due to Monday's holiday.

Morning James,

Thanks for breakfast James, I'll have some fruit and I'll bring some fresh squeezed Florida OJ.

I have the day to my self to work at the bench. Yepper, all day with nothing planned.

Have a great and enjoyable day everyone.

Tom

As James said, it's a perfect spring day here.  No clouds in the sky!  I have a test in the morning (described here  https://davebarry.substack.com/p/tariffs ) and a talk in the afternoon.  But that's good it'll let the paint cure under weights on the Winchendon walls.

Good morning.  We're unseasonably cool with temps topping out in the mid 60's.  After some chores, we're going for a walk.  I plan to do some mock-up work this afternoon.

Morning all,

Raining here.  A high of 72 later.  Nothing planned except a walk later.  Dave, thanks for the Dave Barry link, I've always liked his columns.

Dave Barry is now on Substack, a new column each week more-or-less.  And That's A Good Thing! https://davebarry.substack.com

Good Morning;

Late check in today. I'm taking the Boss out to brunch and a movie today. She is on a competitive 'dragon' boat team and competed during weekend(they look like war canoes) and they came in third! My bride is now number one seat and she has made a difference. They beat the premium boat of the team along with at least 6 others.  So a good day in house. 

Have a great day. 

Jim

Afternoon all,

Did my walk first thing this morning.  Currently at the workbench working on the FOS Frank Lava Gunsmith build. Think my better half and I will head out to the new Mission BBQ joint in Lake Mary this evening. 

Have a great one!

Don't forget a review Bob, Pegi and I are looking for a new joint up that way.  :)

Okay, here it is. Eileen had pulled chicken sandwich and some green beans. She said it was nice and moist. They don't put sauce on it. There are six different sauces on the tables. I had the black plate special and a side of baked beans. The special was a smoked meat loaf. It was a bit too spicy for my taste but pretty good overall. I need to go back and try the brisket as well as the half chicken.

Thanks Bob.  :)

We've seen the place on the way to the water bagel store & jap restaurant on the next block and always comment we need to give it a try, but then forget. We'll get there one of these days.

Bob, if the new BBQ met your approval, we'll have one more reason to put together an SBG North event soon...It'll give you, Greg, and I some motivation to build something worth visiting!

I'm still very early in to my new layout but I've been making progress lately and have some goals set for completion before the NNGC in Sept.
