Good morning everyone.

50 now in Silver Plume, the usual sun in the AM and clouds in the PM.
A high of 69 with a good chance of rain in the PM.

I see Curt is here so we might get breakfast choices again.
It's good to have choices.
Coffee, sodas and OJ are ready.
Huevos Rancheros for breakfast today.

Karl, glad your area got some much needed rain.

Jerry, more tanning today?

Ron, glad you got some turntable time.

TomO, sorry you had to cancel your plans but staying healthy is most important.

Dave, totally agree about not having enough time to see everything.

Larry, hope you enjoyed your sandwiches.

Curt, did you finish the rafter tails and hope the screen repair won't dent the hobby budget.

Hope everyone else is well.

Did a nice hike with my friends to the top of Bergen Peak.
Afterward headed towards the next hike which will be another 14er tomorrow.
Taking it easy all day today.

This was from a hike in Rocky Mountain NP on the Lone Pine Lake Trail.

Howdy.

Another day, another dollar  ;D

I wonder who was the first one to say that.

Have a great day out there.

Good Morning,

Curt thanks for the coffee and breakfast this morning.Hope the prescreening goes well and it should last quite awhile; owning your own home means there's always something that needs fixing.

Rick glad you enjoyed the hike with friends, Have a restful day. Yup the sandwiches were delicious as always. I'll grab another cup of Joe while I'm here.

Jaime have a great day.

What's your plans?

It's a p cloudy 72 with a high of 82 today. Depending on the weather will dictate today's activities. Maybe a little bench time shortly. Not much else going on here.

Have a great and safe day!! Be well and stay cool.

I forgot to mention that for some reason MOH did a AI picture of me. It seems friendlier than the real thing.

G'day from Michigan, little new this morning.  Storms a slight possibility later, muggy and it appears cloudy, at this moment.

Good morning and thanks Curt and Rick for the choices. A weird looking Wisconsin sky out there this morning. A bit of yellow/green amongst the gray overcast with some red/pink where the sun should be! 73 now 82 later.

The medical visits roll on. The Endocrinologist is at 10:15.

I believe the grandson's hockey is at 7:50 tonight but he's attending a hockey day camp this week so Terry will double check if he's playing tonight.

We have to do something for our 50th but all the forecasts for places we'd like to go are high temperatures. I'm not a big believer in long range forecasting but with Terry's accelerated breathing issues we are now looking before we go anywhere. I can't lose my rock! There will be no party for this milestone.

The brother in law in hospice is refusing any visitors and Terry is no longer getting messages as to how he's doing.

Enjoy the day
Tom

Jerry

Morning everyone

Rick & Curt thanks for the choices and the coffee.
Great picture Rick.

Curt you look friendly to me!!  ;D

Morning Jaime.

Larry hope you make the bench later on.

Morning Karl.

TomO I hope you guys can do a small celebration for the 50th!

Weather in South Jersey P. sunny/78.  Later on 87.
Well that sure beats the 4 days of 90+.

I might be able to get in my room to do something.

Everyone have a great day!!  :)

Good morning everyone,

Thanks for the coffee and breakfast Curt,  hope the screen replacement goes well.  The AI generated picture of you looks great. 

Thanks for the second coffee and breakfast Rick, glad you had a great hike yesterday.

Jaime, enjoy your day.

Larry, hope you get some bench time later.

Kark, hope you get some much needed rain.

TomO, sorry to hear about your brother in law, it doesn't sound good.  I'm sure you and Terry will figure out something to celebrate your 50th.

Jerry, hope you get to the bench today, we are holding our breath waiting for an update.

Current weather here is 19c (66f) with a 40% chance of showers.  The drive home from work was a little dicey with a tornado warning blaring from my phone, hit some driving rain and high winds.  Also had a huge lightning show last night on the way from my meeting last night.  No modeling last night.  We shall see what tonight brings.

Have a great day everyone.

Our 25th is the same day as TomO & Terry's 50th. We hope to get back to the UP.

Just spent 3 hrs with the mini chainsaw. Trimming pines. It's a treat! Back inside the Doll is moving furniture again.  >:(

 ;)

Rick

Hope everyone had a wonderful day.
I won't have internet tomorrow.
Going for 14er #7 tomorrow.
Have a great day tomorrow.

Good Morning,

The coffee and other morning beverages are on the counter set to go. Breakfast is homemade biscuits, sausage gravy with hash browns on the side.

Rick enjoy #7 and have a safe hike.

What's your plans.

It's a cool 62 with a high of 82. Managed to get the lawn mowed and trimming done yesterday. Also some bench time. Getting my back cracked this morning then a few errands on the way home. Not sure about the rest of the day yet.

Have a great and safe day!! Be well.

Good Morning All,

Thanks for opening and breakfast Larry. You can't go wrong with biscuits and gravy.

Started out the day with a walk at a feel like temp of 86F. This of course is still in the dark. Yesterday I planked a office for the kit and set the walls overnight under weight. The screen guys will finish up today. The heat was brutal yesterday and will be again today.

Today is floor day :-\ but hope to get to the workbench afterwards.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Out of shape from tree trimming, saw was a treat, the day after needs a bit of a break.  EZ is on the plan sheet for today.  Hands feeling it.  ;) Many more to do, so maybe will get in better shape as I do. 

Rick enjoy the 14er,  :P

Had Mexican dinner last night, was a bit loud in the place and the waiter spoke little English.  Taco Tuesday and they were good.  Si'

Curt, neat picture.

Good morning from an absolutely stunned State of Wisconsin. Nasty commercials can definitely turn an election. The stunned loser has been gracious which seems old school. See your local media to understand as anything beyond this I would think is forbidden...

68 now 85 later. The humidity is at 97%. The smoke is back and you can taste it. It doesn't matter where it's coming from but it's nasty! The Air Quality index is at 95. That means if Terry wants to do the Farmer Markets this morning she'll wear a mask and use her portable oxygen. I'll wear a mask to support her. Thankfully though there will be no severe storms in the area

Terry insists #50 means little to her. The important one to her was when we moved in together 54 years ago in May. There never were plans to get married at that time as she did say no to my 1st proposal. We did celebrate that

Thanks Curt for breakfast. I can have a diet Dr Pepper but need to wait at least 90 minutes after Intake my thyroid replacement meds. I'll be back for the biscuits and gravy.

Yesterday's medical went well. Today's will be a bit more interesting. 2 more medical tomorrow but those are the 2 bothering me. What happens happens!

Have a super day
Tom
