Ummm gravy. Awesome!

Good Saturday Morning to All! Well, the weather prognosticators were correct about a frost warning, it's 31° right now getting to just 55° today. Most years we have multiple warning before getting actual freezing conditions.

36 degrees here... only going to 60 today. Will have to give Tank his shower when it hits 60 so the boy don't freeze.

Dog walk will involve pants, sweatshirt, beanie and gloves. Brrrrrrrrr!

Morning youse folks. A nice 50 going to 78 here.

My grand daughter is getting married today in a simple ceremony with just immediate family present. They have planned a "destination wedding" in Hawaii in February for all their friends. Kids nowadays!#-o

Welcome Saturday peeps. 29 and clear here YEEK 😨

😎 Dudes..

17° and sunny here.

Fed n watered chickens. That was enough outdoorsing for today.

I'm dreaming of a TW Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know.
Where the CROS glisten and the noobs listen
To hear big balls in the snow

I'm dreaming of a TW Christmas
with every gay joke that I write
May your days be marry and bright
And may all your river vans be white

Grandpa coming? 🤔

Planning on going to my oldest brother’s gravesite in a couple hours to herf with at least one, mebbe all 3 of my nephews from Dixon’s first marriage. The first set don’t get along with the 2nd set of nephews so I keep stuff like this separate.

Been 20 years so will hafta mark this occasion with a special cigar. Pulling out 2 of the last three DPG 10th Anniversary coffins from 2013. We smoked those the first time we herfed at the gravesite in 2014 to commemorate 10 years since Big Brother’s sudden passing. Adult beverages will, of course, be part of our gathering.

Supposed to hit a high of 85 but right now it’s pretty cloudy. Although we’ve herfed under umbrellas a couple of times, nephew has a pop-up tent so will have some coverage from the heat or wet. Nonetheless, crossing my fingers that the sun will burn those clouds away.

It's 35 degrees... Whut da...? Tank ain't getting walked until that sun is well up.

Hit the double nickels... wife is cooking some food and a few friends will visit. Prime rib on da menu. Got an ice cream cake...

170 lbs Saturday... prolly gonna be more than that tomorrow. 😰

We haven't decided yet but I would definitely make time for a smoke with the Hawaiian Punch master if we do.

Happy December folks. Looks like a nice 50 this morning headed up to 78 this afternoon.

Hello Sunday & hello December. 🙄

Sunday Sunday Sunday

Sunny 13F this morning

Happy birthday 🎂 MACS and Mrs. MACS.🎂

Do you feel a year older?
Happy Birthday.

Edit: Oh, yeah. Double Nickles.

😎 Dudes....

Thanks, fellas... I do feel older. 4 years ago yesterday is when I found Tank at the shelter. Nov 30, 2020... he came home with me 5 days later.

Neighbor caught raccoon #5 last night. This one was a little bigger, but it still ain't mom or dad big. How many of these mofo's can live in one area??

Memories made moreso due to the holiday, Stogie!

Happy Birthday, MACS!

Congrats DED!

Respects, Palama!


Thanksgiving is a test of endurance. Shopping for everything a week or two before, especially for turkey thighs. Wife prefers dark meat and she has passed her fondness on to most other members of the family. Not many stores carry thighs...found some frozen ones at WinCo, an employee owned discount grocery store. Bummers that they don't accept credit cards...lucky I keep a century note in my wallet for just such "emergencies".

I roast the turkey, along with the additional thighs, make the stuffing casserole and mash the taters. Kids bring the other side dishes and dessert. We host...then Christmas...and then New Years Eve/wife's birthday...

I think there should be more time to relax and replenish between Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year...I'm getting to old for all this fun...

Good Sunday afternoon to All!

Happy Birthday, MACS!

Cleaned the snow off the cars, ran the gas out of the push mower, cleaned out the burn barrel, checked the mouse traps in shed, got one, rebaited traps, checked posted signs, started the 2023 riding mower & tried to start the 2003 but found a mouse nest in the engine for second year in a row.

I'll deal with the 2003 Wednesday. Supposed to be a heatwave--high of 40. I think I'm going to take the 2003 in for servicing this year. I've worked on it in the past--changed the starter solenoid and ball joints, new batteries etc. But the PTO has been stuck to "run" since July and I need some new blades and front tires for it. It's a lot harder to change the blades on it compared to the 2023.

You guys ever get a song stuck in your head? I heard "TW Christmas" on the radio the other day and it's stuck...

Happy Birthday to you, MACS.

Over and out.
