Too funny. My Grand daughter has some little trinket or toy broken. I'm going over there this weekend for my daughter's birthday. While on the phone with me this morning, Rebecca told Chloe to hang on to it until Grams can fix it this weekend. Chloe then said, in all her child wisdom,...................."Grams is a fixit girl". So now I have the title of Fixit Girl! Too cool!
hugs, Brandi

TB Score, I go up to Normangee to get them. He gets them by the semi load from, I think, from Myers Cedar Yard in Lampassas.

This is good to know. My wife and I bought land about 20 miles from Myers and pass them each weekend we go up to work the property. Thanks!

The time I stopped in at Myers, they were real nice and answered all my questions. Stop in and ask for a current price sheet and post it here please. Next time I visit my daughter in Manor, we just might go up and get some more 8 foot corner posts.

Praying you all in the path of Hurricane Harvey are safe or made a change to make yourselves safe! I'm north of Austin and don't expect more than 6" of rain or higher than tropical winds. God Bless the coastal folks!

We're hunkered down. Thanks. I feel bad for a coworker. He lives in Rockport and went home yesterday.

I stopped and loaded up on emergency supplies. Shiner Bock and fresh ground HEB Coffee. I should be good for whatever hits.

We're 45 miles inland from Matagorda/Freeport. In for a bit of weather the next few days. Grocery store was a zoo, and very picked over by the time I got there.

My buddy gave me some Black Seal rum.
We have water, food, etc. No generator.

Prayers for all to safely evac.

NWS just upgraded H. Harvey to Cat 4 at 6 p.m. Raining pretty hard here now.

A lot of the recent construction in Port A has never been tested by a hurricane. Hope they make it through ok.

The same goes for Rockport-Fulton. I can't believe how much that area has grown.

My last stop today was to pick up 1.75 L of Crown Royal. Never bought a bottle that big. I did get to burn a huge brush pile as the drizzle started.

Good idea but, ....... hope you don't wish you'd bought 2?

Stay safe folks, the missus and me are in the Philippines. We're up against a monsoon here, luckily we will miss most of it.

I was in Houston during Carla but my cousins were on the island and their property suffered some severe damage. It's depressing to think about the devastation that might occur over the next 48 hours.

I heard a few minutes ago Port A had a 131 mph gust, there is going to be some major damage up the coast from Corpus.

Sounds like you need to be careful too.

Heck, that bottle will last me 6-7 months. Well, as long as the electricity stays on.
