Good Morning Fogfoghter, Draclvr, hagatha and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready and I'm already enjoying a cup.

Draclvr thanks for the sunshine it is expected here Sunday...more rain today. Sorry to hear Bella is having issues...getting old is an issue for us all! Hagatha I hope the doctor gets your meds straightened out sooner.

Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Gerry

Good Saturday morning! Since it started warming up, I think my little tomato plants have grown a foot!

Fixed hubby's big breakfast and now am going to kick back with a cup of WADDB. Then I'll head out to deal with weeds.

It odd to see only a few hummingbirds, but they are now nesting and raising the first bunch of baby hummers. In about 3 weeks they will be back with a vengeance!

Good morning Gerry, Hagatha, Draclvr, Mad, OldBroad, Fogfighter, Ana and all who follow. My condolences for your loss Draclvr. Enjoying a cup of WADDB befoe I'm off for groceries. Catching up on chores and projects. We had a great time at the lake with kids and grandkids...fishing, swimming, boating and s'mores. Hitting the road tomorrow for Ohio for a visit with grandkids.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone.

Happy Saturday to you all!

Welcome back, soot! Glad you had a nice time! I hope the same goes for Ohio!

Good morning everyone.

It's pouring today, a real deluge. So much for my plans. Oh well. Maybe I'll find myself a good show to stream. There's lots on my list.

Good Morning Draclvr, soot, oldbroad, hagatha, Fogfighter, connie and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready and some donuts and bagels to enjoy till connie gets back!

Draclvr hope those tomato plants keep growing! Soot welcome back...glad to hear your trip was so much fun...enjoy the visit in Ohio with grandkids today! Oldbroad how are you doing? Hagatha it rained here all day yesterday too...got almost 1.50 inches! It is chilly this morning only in the 40s and will get into the upper 50s this afternoon...nice weather for walking.

Wishing you all a peaceful relaxing Sunday!

Gerry

Good Sunday morning! Sunny and warm again today.

Enjoying my WADDB before I get started on the day. More weeding of course, but also helping hubby get the pool open. I didn't know if he was going to try this year because of the knee surgery. I have to help get the cover off which means I have to get on my knees, but as long as I take a couple of pads out there, it works.

Good Sunday morning.

It's a lovely sunny day, so I'm going to pack up some items to return to Costco and other places, drive into Staples and drop off the courier packages, and then drive up the coast to Comox, or perhaps take a drive up Mt. Washington to see if the sub-alpine trail is open yet.

I'm doing okay, Gerry. Thank you for asking. I just don't have much to post about but I am here with you all everyday.

I hope you all enjoy your Sunday!

Good Morning Draclvr, hagatha, oldbroad, and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready.

Draclvr did you get the cover off the pool without incident? Hagatha...a drive up Mount Washington did I read that right??? Oldbroad good to hear you are okay and it's always nice to see you post...we both have been a part of GB a long time!

Hope you all have a Happy Day!

Gerry

Greetings all, I hope your week is starting well: here is a cutie which came our way today, although not very seasonal... enjoy!

The start of TT race week and the first decent weather for over a week, meaning that the practice and qualifying sessions last week were in total disarray

We are not particular fans, and driving is hazardous with so many tourist bikers, but the carnival atmosphere is good.

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Home safely from our trip. Too much car time for this old lady, but we had a great time when we got there. We checked out waterfalls and a national park. West Virginia is beautiful, but I'm not fond of the winding mountain roads. We stopped by some Eagles along the way and when we got there. It's good to be home. Enjoy the day and hug someone.

Good Monday morning! Uffda, supposed to be 90 today and 93 tomorrow!

Yes, Gerry, got that pool cover off without me falling in which is always a plus! He's filling it now as we have to drain the water out in the fall to be below the pump, so it doesn't freeze it up.

Got a call at 7:30 last night and had to run down and close the Ranch last night at 9:00. Only 3 to feed in one barn and Bubbles in the other one. Bubbles is a Zebu - sort of a small Brahma cow - and was in the petting zoo at the St. Louis Zoo for many year. At age 20, she was retired out to Longmeadow. Have to close for 4 days over this coming weekend too.

Welcome home, Connie! No matter how enjoyable a trip is, there is nothing like getting back home.

Lex, silly penguins are ALWAYS in season!

Good afternoon everyone. That little penguin is adorable Lex and I am thinking he had a second bowl of Honey Macks that morning! The grand boys are keeping me busy! We'll be off soon for a second walk/hike shortly. Have a wonderful day everyone.

Happy Monday everyone!

Connie, good to see you back safe and sound!

Good Morning Lex, connie, soot, Draclvr, hagatha, oldbroad and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark brew is ready!

Welcome home Connie...my daughter just moved to West Virginia and loves it there...it is a beautiful place. Lex cute penguins. Draclvr you are always one busy lady! Soot sounds like you are enjoy your time with the grand boys. Hi oldbroad are are you doing today?

Enjoy your day everyone!

Gerry

Tired right now, Gerry. Just getting ready to but I'll be back later!

For me West Virginia always calls to mind the John Denver song Country Roads https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vrEljMfXYo

Have a good day all - sunshine here this morning, so the garden tasks are calling...!

Good morning everyone!

15 Celsius, sunshine and WADDB. A good start of the day!

Happy Tuesday GameBoomers!

Good morning Fogfighter, Lex, OldBroad, Gerry, Hagatha, Draclvr, Connie and all who follow. Welcome back Connie, glad you had a great visit...West Virginia is beautiful. Yes indeed Lex, John Denver's song is spot on target. I'm enjoying Gerry's wide awake double dark brew too Fogfighter. Get some good Zzzz's OldBroad. I discovered two walks with the grandboys were one too many yesterday afternoon...my feet are talking to me this morning!

Have a Tootin Toosday everyone!

Good morning, Danish, Donuts and Bagels in the Break Room. Yes Lex, it does me too. My late hubby was born in West Virginia. Lunch and Netflix with a friend today. Enjoy the day and hug someone.

I'm awake now, I think. Internet connection already acting up on this too hot and windy day.

I hope you all enjoy your Tuesday!

Good Tuesday morning! Warm and toasty today and then more storms and rain tomorrow.

Enjoyed my WADDB and now it's time to head out to the tomatoes to do a little work. Of course, followed by weeds!

Good Morning oldbroad, Fogfighter, Lex, soot, Draclvr, connie, hagatha and everyone! Wide Awake Double Dark Brew is ready!

Oldbroad I can relate to internet problems...I am literally at the end of the line in the country and waiting for fiber optic cable to replace the copper connections! The phone company is no longer doing maintenance on the copper cable...only if I report a trouble!

Lex many years ago my son had a school project where he had to put a song to a photo album...he used "Country Roads" by John Denver to go with the photos he took from our "country roads"...he won first place!

Maybe a day to take off from walking soot.?

Draclvr all the work on those tomato plants will pay off...nothing like fresh picked tomatoes!

We will be having smoke from the Canadian wild fires today and an ozone alert because of the expected hot temps and humidity.

Hope you all have a relaxing day!

Gerry

Food morning everyone!

WADDB is a great way to handle the disappointment of 12 celsius and rain. But I'm sure the garlic like some water now and then.
John Denver once appeared in a local music quiz. I'm sorry to say I failed that question. Don't remember the details. I might have chosen the wrong state or something. Colorado perhaps. Just kidding but you get the vibe. Anyway, no win for fogfighter that night.

Happy Wednesday GameBoomers!
