Good evening, Marine...((HUGS))...Mr Poker.

Hope you are well and spring has arrived.

[luvie]

Ugh! It said I was “Bridge” and I think that’s a dumb game.

Actually, I don’t play games. I get bored too quickly. :)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Mr Euchre...(HUGS))...maybe a little poker on the side.

Hope you had a great day.

[Kathy in Alaska]

The HangnJudge!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Third Person.....never played Bridge.

Hope you had a good day. Is it spring where you live?

[Kathy in Alaska]

G’Day, Janey...((HUGS))...is your wrist/hand all better now? Flying again?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, umgud...another Mr Poker.

Hope it’s spring at your house.

[ConorMacNessa]

It went well, thanks!

Sorry I'm out of contact for the last half hour or so - on the phone with my daughter in Wisc.

Hope it’s spring at your house.

Heck, it's darn near summer here. I've spent time in your area, so I'm guessing it's still chilly there.

Took test:
You are playful and fun loving. You always like some friendly competition!
You have good people skills, and you try to play fair. You remember that a game is just a game.

You love to be surprised, and you like to think that luck is on your side.
You are whimsical and carefree. You have no problem asserting yourself, but you are never overly aggressive.

[henkster]

Hi Kathy. I did have a good day, but tomorrow will be better. Playing euchre with some friends after work.

By the way, thank you for hosting these threads. I enjoy just cutting up just for fun once in a while.

Cold, windy, drizzling 42 degree New England spring day. ;^)

YOU ARE BRIDGE!



You are brilliant, shrewd and ruthless at the table!

You can intuit unerringly the motives and intent of your opponent from their initial bids.

You can smell a grand slam as soon as the cards are dispersed.

Your favorite opening bid? "Two No-Trump!"

You have endless patience – you know instinctively when to finesse and when not to. You play low in second place and high in third. You cross-ruff like a daemon. You end-run with the best of them. You always know when to execute a safety play. Blackwood and Fishbein are your semblables.

Most importantly, your bid is always honest – when you're dummy and your partner thanks you after you lay your hand down, he has no cause to regret it!

Hi Kathy! Ya, wrist all better. Been doing mostly maintenance flights with other pilots. People in the outback have been behaving themselves. Did one preggers flight, brought an Aboriginal girl in, difficult labor. But other than that, pretty calm. (((HUGS))) Janey

Above freezing during the day, lots of melting, but still freezing at night, so icy mornings.

Snowed all day today, but it didn’t stick.

Faithful To The Finish
April 24, 2013

After running 32 kilometers (20 miles) of the Salomon Kielder Marathon in Great Britain, a runner dropped out and rode a bus to a wooded area near the finish line. Then, he re-entered the race and claimed third prize. When officials questioned him, he stated that he stopped running because he was tired.

Many of us can relate to the exhaustion of a worn-out athlete as we run the race of the Christian faith. The book of Hebrews encourages us to “run with endurance the race that is set before us” (12:1). Running with endurance requires that we lay aside the sin that stands in our way and shed the weights that hold us back. We may even have to press on through persecution (2 Tim. 3:12).

To prevent weariness and discouragement in our souls (Heb. 12:3), the Bible urges us to focus on Christ. When we pay more attention to Him than to our struggles, we will notice Him running alongside us—supporting us when we stumble (2 Cor. 12:9) and encouraging us with His example (1 Peter 2:21-24). Keeping our eyes on “the author and finisher of our faith” (Heb. 12:2) will help us stay close to the source of our strength and remain faithful to the finish.

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face;
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace.

We can finish strong when we focus on Christ.

Read: Hebrews 12:1-4

Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us. —Hebrews 12:1

Bible in a Year:
2 Samuel 19-20; Luke 18:1-23

Now THAT is a BRIDGE!!

Sand!!

[umgud]

A few years ago, I spent 10 days on the Kenai Penensula. A cabin on a small lake near Soldotna. Spent half the time fishing, the other half touring. Took 250 lbs halibut & salmon home. One of the best trips I ever took. May go back a ride the railroad.
