I feel so much better since the hot tub and a 30 minute power nap. Now I think I can make another six hours or so doing more chores.

Wow! What an obstacle course!
Deer scare me to death; I've hit three in my lifetime. A deer is what, about the size of the hind leg of a moose?
Hitting one of those must be like driving head on into the face of a cliff! BE CAREFUL!

Hey Kathy. I got into the hot tub, took a nap and am ready for a few more chores outside. I have some lettuce that is on its way out for production, so that needs to get pulled up and make room for other plants.

HI, Kathy!

what i found FASCINATING about the NE Canteen was the number of WEDDINGS from those "whistle-stops".

Please keep Robert and the soldiers of the 10th Mountain Division in your prayers. The recent ambush occured in the sector my son and his platoon patrol. We’ve had no word from Robert since before this ambush, so we do not know his status. We do know that this ambush involved members of the 2nd BCT - 10th Mountain. May God be with all of our troops and the families of those involved.

On my list of “some day”...a hot tub or whirlpool tub. *sigh*

Glad your garden is coming along.

Good afternoon, retired curmudgeon. Did you take Barb out for Mother's Day? Flowers? Trying to rain, but no luck so far.
