You know you're retired when, after a bike ride, you're thinking, "gee, I better shave today," when what you're getting ready for is a doctor appointment.

Good day, another perfect weather day in store, they are saying, and tomoro as well, which is good because Tuesday is D-Day at Casa Hammondi, when my old asphalt driveway gets ripped out, new base laid down and then a day or two later they will come in and repave it. As Marty noted, it's a moonscape out there right now, way overdue to address it, but damn, it's spendy ...
Have a great week, everybody!
p.s. Radio dude just reminded us that the State Fair starts Thursday, yikes, a harbinger of fall already!

Steve Goodman is the first I heard to play TMOTTBG and he played it with verve and joy. I was sold and learned how to play it in up tempo 4/4. I loved how it sounded and loved how happy I felt playing it that way. I recommend all y’all give it a try.

It messes with the timing of the lyrics, and was taught to me by a dental officer on the naval base in Keflavik, Iceland.

Must be hard to fret the guitar. Up and coffee. Off to Freddies (Kroger) in a bit to pick up the stuff we will need for tomorrow, when we are hosting a few Airstreameers for a barbeque/sleepover. I’m doing Amzing Ribs souvideque pork loin recipe, amazingribs.com/tested-recipes/pork-recipes/sous-vide-que-pork-loin-recipe/ Baked beans, cornbread, and slaw. And pie. Might get a bike ride in after the pork goes in the water. Mike

Just got back from my yearly skin check and yes I shaved before I went. Most of my scalp was hit with the cold spray and will fall off in a few days. Otherwise, OK.

Good morning
64F-82F Going from sunny to partly cloudy to cloudy as the day progresses.
A nice breakfast of waffles and coffee and as already stated a needed shower so I don't offend the nurses at my Doc appointment.
The girls are doing fine up Nort. They couldn't wait and went into Crosslake to shop and get Bridgeman's ice cream at the little shop. They will go to town a few more times to do mini golf, Have a pizza night and visit the Library because that is the only place that has free wifi. One can barely get phone service out at the lake.

I might, if I knew what you were talking about. See Coach's "PlayBall" thread, please. Thank you, Bill. I had no idea what TMOTTBG meant. The truth is, when a thread title seems like it might have something to do with sports, I never open it. So I never would have seen Doc’s video.

So I never would have seen Doc’s video. Same here. I will just assume it has some sports reference and end my confusion.

"Wowzer! Hard to understand how such a horrible place can be so photogenic." It's all Photoshop. Good morning. No real news. Enjoy your day.

Started off the day in Indiana, then Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and now Florida. Spending a few days here for some training. Orlando is muggy.

Morning.
I just got me a new music chair. It has wheels on it so I can just scoot from the trombone over to the guitar, and anywhere else in the room. Can't wait to try it out. It spins too!
Life is good!

Sorry to hear that. The only place I was ever mugged was Des Moines.
