Better for people to think you are a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Here in Virginia when we have a positive outcome on something, we say "yep, that dog's gonna hunt".

Similar, here when someone has an idea that isn’t quite ready for prime time, we say “that dog don’t hunt”.

We had the same saying back in the day when we’d visit various company locations —- “we’re from Corporate and we’re here to help”.

Hey MoKelly,
How is retirement treating you?

Irony...is knowing that the odds of getting killed on the way to the store to buy a lottery ticket are better than the odds of you winning the lottery...!

Hey MoKelly,
How is retirement treating you?

Goodness. It’ll be 6 years at the end of Sept. and it seems like just last year. Time has flown.

I keep a tad more busy than I’d prefer doing my Farm stuff (which is mostly mowing and helping the real farmer during planting and harvesting) plus helping my wife on her tennis stuff. I’m also on a hospital Board which was amazingly interesting last year.

We spend most of Dec-Feb in Florida near Tampa at a golf/tennis place that is very relaxing.

So, overall - it’s been better than I was expecting.

How about you?

I always thought irony was driving home after getting your new snow tires and getting stuck behind someone who forgot about snow tires!

It was 7 years in March. We are loving it. Sold the house after 36 years , 50 in California. Bought 5.5 acres in Oregon, place came with the Koiti ( love that thing ).
Our girls live about 45 minutes in Portland. We haven't been anywhere in the 5th wheel since the fall of 19.
I'm into cutting and splitting wood for the stove we go through 7 or so cords a year and working outside plus diy projects....life is good bro!
