Clouds and scattered rain this morning in warmer, 60s already at 0830, Michigan. 

Little to add this morning, I hope the best for the procedure, Tom I'm familiar with the MOHS process, not a picnic for sure. Nor a barbeque :o

Light activity on tap for here today.  I hope all are well.

It's sunny and 72 in SE NH, heading to 80.  Slightly above average.  There's haze in the air from those Canadian fires, last night's sunset was kinda dull pink.  We stopped off to eat on the way home from the late afternoon concert.  Today there's an article in the newspaper about how expensive restaurants have become.  Yup! 

One dog is begging because she didn't like her breakfast.  That's not an obligation on me to give her more treats!

I'm watching yard workers remove an old oak stump from a neighbor's yard.  Those are -heavy-.

In other transportation news, a Boeing 787 Dreamliner went down in India.  First accident for that type aircraft.

Good morning everyone.

Garden City, ID weather: Sunny, with a high near 89.

Curt, thanks for the coffee and breakfast.
Glad dads appointment went well and hope the rain stops.

Terry, good morning.

Karl, have a great light duty day.

Dave, prices for eating out sure have gone up.
That's why I cook everyday.

Rich, stop in more often.

ACLTom, sorry you have to have those procedures done again.
Hope it all goes well and speedy recovery.

James, no ice, just a very still morning.
I was just above 7,000'
Most of the s$#@ here should be gone by early July, but some sticks around all year.

Jerry, rack done?

Philip, weeds be gone?

Larry, how was dinner?

Mike, any news from Texas?

Greg, how are you?

Ron, still packing?

After the gym I saw there was a brewery next door.
Decided to stop in and celebrate the 1,000th day.
Had a good burger, stout and bread pudding for desert.
Laundry didn't get done so that will be first this morning.
Then moving east where I hope it will be a little cooler.

Thanks everyone for your concerns, I'll be fine. I've been through this at least six times. I'm just happy it is on my legs and not my face area. This is a procedure that looks and sounds worse than it actually is. According to the Dermatologist, 95% of these usually occur on the lower extremities.  All mine have been above my ankles and below my knees. The medical field has no theory as to why.

During my law enforcement days, prior to being promoted to Sergeant, I spent 8 years in the crime scene unit. It wasn't uncommon for one of us to be sent to the morgue and photograph the medical examiner's procedure during an autopsy. We documented where the knife or bullet went through an organ and thus causing death. Well, you get the picture. My book will be much more detailed.

Afternoon,

I just spent about 90 minutes working out a route from IA (close to Des Moines not Cedar Rapids) that does not take them through Atlanta (most direct route) and no back roads. :o

I've been fiddling around with the Bowser Pennsy X31f boxcar Tom graciously gave me.

Tom I watched an autopsy while in PM school. I found it fascinating to see our actual organs.

Rick pretty landscape but you can have it. Congrats on the 1000 days.

Larry I hope your wife feels better quickly.

Good afternoon everyone,

Just a short post to let everyone know I'm still alive.   ;D

Currently 87 and partly cloudy, we have avoided the rain up here in Jacksonville.  Packing has started and will continue tonight.  I booked a fishing trip for this Sunday so I can brag that I have been fishing in both oceans.  8) 

Have a great day everyone.

Good Morning All,

Breakfast today is the usual. Coffee, cereal, bagels, yogurt, OJ, and soda.

I didn't accomplish much yesterday. After chores I ran out of energy. We only received about 15 minutes of light rain and no thunder yesterday.

Today I'm working on pool stuff before it gets too hot (but it's a wet heat). MOH should be home late tomorrow. She departs again on Wednesday for a visit with her BFF in SC. The current trip was unexpected as someone else backed out at the last minute.

Here's another plumeria color variation in the yard.

I've wasted enough of your time.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Morning Everyone,

Curt as usual thanks for the coffee and breakfast. Running out of energy part way through
the day seems to be a way of life now, at least for me. Beautiful flower and watch the heat doesn't get to you.

What's the rest of you up to.

It's a cloudy and cool 57 with a high of 71 in New York. Ran the usual Friday errands and today we'll be picking up our new glasses and have diner out later. Maybe even some bench time today.

Have a great day!! Be well.
