Bet there was quite a blizzard when that Chinook took off. Not ready for that much snow yet. I still have summer repairs to do. Happy fall y-all

I’m psyched-up and ready for tomorrow. My long Thursdays have become quite easy since I’ve been doing it for almost 2 years. It’s a perfect, 12 hours/week part-time retirement job.

For sure those blades kicked up a bunch of snow. LOL!

Happy prepping for winter, mountainlion. We had an unexpected mid-day rain fall. 3/10 at my house.

And we have termination dust on the mountains.

To: radu
((LOL)) Well, as we arrived at Wichita ridge yesterday we saw a deer run by. As you probably know by now Gizmo has a habit of running and chasing deer so I had to keep him on the leash so he wouldn't run off.

And, OH THOSE MAYFLIES!!!!!!!! We had to battle numerous swarms of them while we were out there too. No fun at all.

Other than that we had a great time.

Good thing you had him on the leash already or you’d still be looking for him. LOL He wouldn’t have given up on chasing that deer.

UGH on the Mayflies! They sure ruin the fun.

Good morning, Mayor...no worries.

I’ve had nothing by trouble all evening with slow and timing out and you can’t get there from here. Giving up and going to bed. (midnight)
