69°F and 4.01 inches rain. Yup, been another wet one. Forecast to continue.

Guys were victorious at H&F last night. a close game that gals almost pulled it out.

Buyer of my old golf cart supposed to come this morning to pick up. Lives in Captain Cook area so quite a drive.

Otherwise an inside day, but I can hear the grass getting ready to burst forth once basked with a few hours sunshine.

Prayers for all
Be safe
Have a blessed day
We made it down to Captain Cook area on our visit, just a brief look...

Had our morning breakfast with the crew today, first time in awhile, since we've been gone a good bit. Very windy today, good wind that should take a lot of leaves.

Fortunately caught this before any damage yesterday

Good Afternoon,
Drew, so I believe the Borscht belt starts around Liberty ! My grand parents farm was just north of there in Livingston Manor, in the Catskills mountains ! When they stopped actively farming they both worked at Grossingers ! I’m sure you remember that name ! Beautiful area really !

Back to work !

38°F and spotty fog this morning, going up to 62° today.

Left to go to a meeting at our other facility this morning, and when I got back at 11:30, I left my jacket in the car. Seems we're getting into those days now, where we have to dress for all four seasons in one day.

Good afternoon, gents.

we all wish we could carry a little of your load so as to lighten it Buppies
make the best of your good days

I thought marrying a nurse was a great idea for many reasons.
Turns out I wound up being the caregiver for many years.
Last two years was 200 days in hospital.
I started on TBN as a way to kill time sitting in that hospital chair
I could dream of a new Kubota.
at one point after the umpteenth operation, my wife looked up at me and said
honey I think it's time you got your new tractor.
and I did and many of you remember I had a little heart painted on rear window with
her name in it.

so sometimes it's us guys taking care of the wives, not other way around.
I got serious caregiver PTSD and had to escape to NC.
Worrying for too long is the part that gets you weary.
The what next thoughts you can't avoid.
the stress from which doesn't help Buppie's own health.
so perhaps at least mentally we will try to lighten Buppies load

having someone to talk to is really important.
Amen to that, Drew.
I had a different ending, but looking back, my caregiver days for Sophie were a blessing. All these years later it is a struggle to remember the more difficult times, but the good memories are right there. Hard to believe that started Nov 1998. I surely couldn’t foresee that would lead to this life in Hawaii. Her idea.
Blessing to Buppies and all the others, caregivers and carereceivers.

Ron, my rv is rated at 14,500 gvw, so well under bridge rating.

80 degrees out, odd, about to drop rapidly
got all my outside stuff done
even found a few small tomatoes

leaves whirling every which way
unfortunately they collect at my front door.
that pad is 9x13 for an 8x12 shed
already looks too small
have golf cart and two garden tractors, want to get two out of three inside.
