Chicken Saltimbocca if anybody is hungry come on by.

Which you were closer, FD board meeting tonight for me, so not much on my supper menu.

It's smelling quite savory.

Gary would feed the little guy.

Haha. That would be like inviting Dennis the Menace over for milk and cookies.

I actually lucked out for once. Today was the Board Sec/Treas's birthday, so her daughter surprised her with an impromptu party complete with ice cream and cake. Nothing like a huge sugar rush late in the evening to perk you up.

Very nice Fujidave. You're getting a 3-D effect wide open. Good news on the chest infection. How's Mum?

Thank you Gary, really do love this 90mm wide open. Mum is fine too thank you we went out for her 86th the other day and had a great time.

Today is forecast for a sunny one, busy too this morning as have to go and talk to the bank manager, then might managed a mooch about town.

Gary is over here smiling as you people speak of earthquakes.

Though I'm not sure that it's something good to win at, the earthquake activity along the New Madrid fault line surpasses CA. In the known history of the world, no other earthquakes have lasted so long or produced so much evidence of damage as the New Madrid earthquakes. Three of the earthquakes are on the list of America’s top earthquakes: the first one on December 16, 1811, a magnitude of 8.1 on the Richter scale; the second on January 23, 1812, at 7.8; and the third on February 7, 1812, at as much as 8.8 magnitude. After the February 7 earthquake, the Mississippi actually ran backwards for several hours. The force of the land upheaval 15 miles south of New Madrid created Reelfoot Lake, drowned the inhabitants of an Indian village; turned the river against itself to flow backwards; devastated thousands of acres of virgin forest; caused sand blows, created two temporary waterfalls in the Mississippi, and forever changed the course of the river. There are literally 1000's of recorded quacks over the years. By and large they occur in areas without significant concentrations of structures, so most people have learned to ignore them as a part of daily life.

But the coast still beats New Madrid because of the volcanoes.

Happy Friday of a long weekend Hosers! Celebrate good times come on!

But the coast still beats New Madrid because they have volcanoes.

And they have Gary to contend with.

So what are holiday plans? Anything exciting

We're staying home, which is probably a good thing because granddaughter will be here tonight. Likely take a couple days to rest up from that little whirlwind.

 

[SquarePeg]

We’ll be staying mostly local. Princess has field hockey practice every day but Sunday. Going to Maine that day tobiur fav dog friendly beach. Monday bbq here. Hoping to take advantage of the current cooler temps to get some yard work in today and Saturday.

 

[limr47]

Hey hosers.

I will probably need some crashy time on the couch with kitties, but will also have to work on my syllabus. Other than that, who knows? Chores, errands, maybe a little shopping.

 

[snowbear136 67]

MLW found an unused gift card so we're going to the movies tomorrow morning. It's supposed to storm/rain all weekend so we'll just do some inside stuff. I have a couple of art things I want to work on.

 

[waday]

We're staying in and relaxing. It is supposed to rain all weekend, so that hampers plans. If we can, we may grill on Monday. We're going to see Cirque du Soleil on Saturday, so that should be fun. Otherwise, the house needs a good cleanup, and we need some rest from work.

 

[smoke665]

Oh most important thing I forgot!!!!! Football starts down south, tomorrow. Auburn in the afternoon and Alabama tomorrow evening. Just got a glimpse of DW 's snack men, so it will be a great day in the recliner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. Gary is set to order a couple hundred feet of conduit, the trenching is completed. Gary just has to clean out the loose dirt and check a few places for proper depth. Gary twisted an ankle digging away while anchoring himself in loose dirt. He was lazy and wore Crocs instead of work boots. Normally he'd be wearing boots. The boots may have saved his ankle. Consequently, Gary missed a day's worth of work and snuggled up with his new friend Mr. Ibuprofen.
