Thank you Will. 👍🤣



I am very sorry for your loss Mr. Crappie ......... I have said that before after losing a great pet and later went ahead and got another. The sad part about having a pet is that they don't live near as long as most people. It is good to wait a while and see how you feel about it. :(



Thank you my friend and I am so happy that you got that two feet of snow that I don't want. 👍😊🤣⛄
My recent snowman finally melted after it lasted a week and the next day it snowed four more inches.
Love the snow. Gotta have lots. Better for snowmobiling. A little bit of snow is just asking to slam into a tree stump or end up underwater. 😁
At least you found it right away. 😁👍

I recall when my middle brother was 4 or so, he took a pair of grandpa's (good) pliers, then took apart grandpa's then 2 year old power mower. (that grandpa passed in 1963😭)
There was over a foot of snow on the ground. When asked "Where did you put my pliers???" Little bro calmly told grandpa "in the plier hole. 😊 "
Turned out the "plier hole" was where he dropped it in the snow. Grandpa found his "now" rusty (formerly) "good" pliers the following spring ... with a few mower nuts, bolts, the sparkplug ... a few small engine parts...
It was a mission to find the new to me Barlow. Super glad it didn’t take too long but boy, were my hands cold afterwards. 😂

The old 225 Quartermaster Cattaraugus stays in the car, wedged between the seat and armrest.
Have a great day!
Loving the Daado. Most excellent.
 
Queen Barlow today.

Feeling beat down today as yesterday we lost Loretta Rose exactly three months after being diagnosed with lymphoma. She was the best dog: a patient nanny, a loyal companion, and a vigilant home defender. Although she moved to a new house with our daughter when she got married, this was still her home. She visited us and stayed with us often and is now buried in our back yard between Cisco and Grover.

This is pretty rough on all of us especially my daughter and my wife. I just don’t see myself ever getting another pet.

That's terrible John. Very sad to hear that news. It leaves such an empty feeling when there's no faithful pet in the house. I hope you don't stand too firm on not getting another pet. As you know, we recently lost "Utah" the doxie and I felt that way myself but Cindy and I have found ourselves looking at the rescue sites around us. Best to Denise.

So sorry to hear about the passing of your beloved dog. My condolences to you and your family.
 
What can I say just another beautiful day here in the City by the Bay! After my morning PT just taking it easy for the rest of the day. Keeping me company with a nod to Black Friday two ebony beauties. Have a great weekend folks! 😀IMG_1559.jpegIMG_1567.jpeg
 
It's a Sowbelly today. Pictured are two Amber Bone Sowbelly knives - both made in 2001. The top one is the one I'm carrying and if you'll notice, the orange coloring in the bone has worn away and the jigging itself is worn and showing very very very light yellowing of the bone while the bottom one hasn't been used or carried and the full orange coloring is prominent with no yellowing of the bone and the jigging is crisp and sharp.

Now here's one made in 2002 with the coloring and jigging called Antique by Case.
