Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Good morning Guardians. This isn’t an old knife, but it’s comfortable.

Good morning Guardians, cold outside again, but I might venture out today. First I have to check on a couple of deliveries. And get a shave! Fancied carrying something old today Have a great day Guardians

Beautiful worn covers Jack.

Well, last week was hands down the winner of worst week this year. Getting this Albers from a gentleman of the porch was the only bright spot. Thankfully this week is shaping up to be a little better.

Jeremy, glad life has taken a turn for the better. You have a sweet lamb there.

Nice one Jack, old knives are like comfort food.

Thanks Todd that's a good analogy

I'm very sorry to hear you had a stinker Jeremy That's one heck of a bright spot though

It's still unusually cold here, and with the pavements iced-up, I took extra care when walking down to Charlie's. Took my time with 2 Americanos and a blueberry muffin, and then headed into town, and out again before my ankle started hurting again

A word I actually know! Even if I don't think I've ever heard it used in conversation!

Beans with Crackers, now that is a new one.

Last nights dinner, Beluga Caviar with crackers.

Great story, Jack! I loved Lego when I was a kid. I had a friend who would get a Lego set, build it and then display the finished product on a shelf. My brother and I would build a set once, then take it apart and dump all the pieces into a giant plastic tub with every other Lego set we’d ever owned.



Thanks for sharing the pics of your trip to Matlock. (I did my best, every time I read the name, not to think of the show starring Andy Griffith that my grandma used to watch when we’d visit her house as kids.)

The petrifying well is interesting. Sounds like a creative way to monetize having hard water.



Good looking tree, Paul.



Looks good, Todd!

The snow gods have been stingy here in Minnesota so far. We got a bit this morning (slightly more than a dusting), but the sun took care of most of it by the afternoon. This was the biggest snowman the girls could manage (and that was only because earlier in the day I had swept the snow off the deck into a small pile that remained shaded most of the day).

Better put that snowman in the freezer for the next few days my friend.
And beautiful knife by the way.

I think I remember you, or someone else, mentioning that place before Vince Sounds absolutely delicious Of course, a few hundred years back, you had to take your own cutlery, even if you were dining with Royalty. Those were fixed blade knives, carried in a trousse for the posh folks, but when folding knives came along, their primary use was as eating implements

LOL! There's nothing kids love more! Having said that, the scariest thing my kids ever did to me, when they were little, was make me breakfast in bed! I opened my eyes, and there was a mug of tea inches from my face! Turned out it was cold anyway, as was the toast, but of course I had to drink some of it, before I could discreetly throw it down the sink

Hope you enjoyed dinner Paul, sounds delicious Very interesting about the snus. Do you want me to send you some snuff over? Cool pic buddy

Stunning shot Steve

Great to see Kat out of the bag David Hope you're doing OK my friend

Very interesting I recall seeing other Guardians having baked beans and crackers

Glad your Lamb is earning its keep Mitch How long do those bands last?


Welcome to the Guardians Ash, that's some really nice work The Lambsfoot marches on!



Yeah, I've seen people frame jigsaws! With me, it was a big old biscuit (cookie) tin, which seemed almost as indestructible as the Lego! Lego seems as popular as ever. There's actually a Lego shop in Leeds, but I've never been in

I did the same a few times Barrett, and I haven't even seen the show (just the ads)! Funny how a TV show cann change everything. When my eldest daughter was born, there was a lady in the same ward as her mother, called Mrs Blackadder! She had always been very proud of her obscure name (there were half a dozen in the Sheffield phone book), and then her life was ruined, she claimed, because after the TV series came out, every time she said her name, people smirked. She hated Rowan Atkinson!

LOL! Yeah, shame it wasn't open

Cool pic my friend Weird that we have had more snow here than in Minnesota!

Hello, Guardians. My day started out with a fright. Woke up and used the restroom as always. On the way out my son Eli was standing at the door and said “Good Morning” in an evil voice . He got me good. I am usually the only one up at that hour and was not expecting that!!!! We had a good laugh after. All I could think of was Hannibal Lector in his cell looking at me and saying it.

Other than that, it will be a normal workday. Dinner at my parent’s house later. I think my mom is cooking up some kalbi .

Happy to report that I have transitioned from American chewing tobacco to Swedish Snus. Much safer and really delicious. Titusville lamb riding in the pocket. Hope everyone had a great day.

No sunlight today. Except for a few seconds that were too fast for me.

I thought I'd put this dog under the Christmas tree. Mom made several of them for various toddlers, and kept this one for visiting toddlers. My elder niece, who is about to turn 48, called this one Black Fu.

Jeremy, glad life has taken a turn for the better. You have a sweet lamb there.

Thanks Bob, here’s to hoping that improving trend continues.

Thanks Steve. Your picture of Gidget in the sun sure brought out the contrast in the wood. Also, I’d like to say it was a “right place right time” deal in getting this ironwood Albers but it was more of a “porch members looking out for each other” deal.
