Does seem pulling one *weed* creates growth of two to three new *weeds*.
God’s speed, I pray for You, FRriend.
Good morning. Happy Twosday!
I made it back with no fuss. Of curse, when I got back there was a long list of stuff in the estate home that needed addressing. B-I-L is coming in tonight and he’s going to let us use the movers he’s hired to move his stuff into storage to move our stuff into storage too. So we’re wrapping stuff for the movers.
When we don’t even need furniture somehow we’re taking 3 dressers with mirrors. Mirrors are fun to pack. I’ll be doing more of that tonight.
I’m already tired and it’s only 7:50 in the morning. I guess this was a real labor day weekend.
Wordle was good this morning.

That’s a good Wordle weekend. I think I got a 4, a 3, and a 2. But I can’t remember that far back.
I keep telling myself that I need to announce to the universe that I don’t want any grass, I just want crabgrass and clover. Maybe then grass will grow.
I don’t think that you really fit!
Good Morning!
After a couple of days of steady rain, the sun worked its way out by yesterday afternoon and I was able to get the pool cleaned out with some time to float around and relax... Throw in the return of college football, and it wasn’t a bad long weekend at all...
Back to so-so Wordling...

I don’t suppose you were watching to see how Bill Belichick would do. I heard it was a bit of a disappointment.
I’m not a big football fan. I’ll watch if I’m visiting someone who has it on.
I do root for the only New York team since I live here. I’ll have to make a choice when I move back to the Wildlands, but I can’t see becoming an Iggles fan.
The most important thing!
I thought about watching it just to see how his team would do, but passed... I see this morning that they lost to TCU 48-14...
In recent years we actually enjoy the college game much more than the pros...
We are long suffering Cowboy fans here... it is almost masochistic at this point... most weeks actually enjoy tuning in the Houston team more than the ‘Boys...
Maybe try the Pittsburgh Steelers?
I’m thinking about the Steelers as my shadow favorite team.
I know how you feel about the Cowboys. B-I-L is a baseball fan but he lives in Denver. Baseball season is a season of mourning for the poor Rockies fans.
Define “fit”.
I asked my fiddle to define fit and it said to buzz off.
Boy! All of my days off hit at least 98F. I did get my gutters blown out Monday morning before things stoked up too much, and the guilty tree is grown over the roof far enough that I got to work in near total shade.
Of course, that brings up the subject of tree trimming, and not of the Holiday variety, which I’ll either take on my self, or drop a weighty sum to have done; that or be back clearing gutters, again in 6mos. Likely BOTH.
But the tree must be addressed as the Real Estate Insurance market in CA has become extremely tight; companies are looking for just about any reason to terminate policies, and trees afford them a few ready points of leverage.
I did, on Sunday, drive out to the Zinfandel Capital* of Lodi to visit my Mother. We chatted for awhile, then she mentioned some friends had been to a place that served German cuisine, which is fare that’s surprisingly difficult to find out here. I don’t know whether it was the same place as the one her friends spoke of, but we went to a place in Waterloo called “German Guys” and had a nice, very savory dinner.
And, of course
“Du bist hier, Du brauchst Bier” so... a dark lager on tap was obligatory.
They’re having festivities for Oktoberfest, and offer beer in a boot (Bierstiefel) in sizes up to 2 liters, a drinking challenge that is met with a win or a wetting.
* — Lodi vineyards boast root stock going back as far as 1888, and area Zinfandels regularly garner high praise. If you can find a bottle of 2021 Burlington Chandler Mokelumne** River-Lodi Zinfandel you’ll be well rewarded with the best the region has to offer.
** — say mo-KEL-u-mee (silent “n”)
...
Today’s offering presented SOOO many choices, but I whittled it down without either accidentally using any eliminated letters, or running out of pavement. HUZZAHH!

I wonder if the Rockies have a crumby owner too...
I get the drift!
Wow, that is really hot for your area!
Yeah, get the tree taken care of, don’t want to give those insurance folks a reason to cancel you or raise your rates sky high...
A good German restaurant is very nice to find!!
