Good Morning!!!!!!

[LPS]

Thanks.  Not looking forward to it but got to get it fixed.  Will all be good.

Mornin guys, 38 with some light rain here & we might make it all the way up to 40. We're head back home tomorrow, so today we'll be packing the car as we like get going pretty early. I like to be through the metro by around 9:30-10, so that puts in Clear Lake by about noon. Yeah, I too hope all goes well with your surgery, LPS. I could be out of touch for a couple days, as there'll be more than a couple Windows updates to do.  'Bout it here, have a good day.

Mornin' fellow gulag comrades! 36 at choretime heading for a high in the mid-40's. Rain coming in this afternoon they say. Got sheep loaded w/o a hitch yesterday. Wife took off for Louisville this a.m. so I'm unsupervised now until the 21st. Speaking of Windows updates & confuser stuff gunner, my guru stopped in yesterday. He completed a couple downloads that may or may not solve my keyboard issue, a newer keyboard driver update & a bios something or other. So far it seems to be working OK but he loaned me an older external keyboard to use in case it acts up again. It'll point us in the right direction at least. He's a customer as well so he paid his bill while he was at it. Super handy guy to have around for dummies like me. Good luck Barry! Hopefully mama has been working out to pick up the slack while you're healing. Don't do like my friend who decided he was all better before the doc told him it was OK to start doing chores & lifting stuff. He wound up having a do-over.

Good Luck Barry!

Ya, same here. Wave when you go by. Does this mean he's pulling the pin for the season up north?

Glenn always comes up spearing before Christmas & I'm sure he stops there to give 'em their present every year too.

This is my third hernia but they have all been in different spots.  That is a good thing.  I think do-overs are harder to do with damaged material to work on.  I will be as careful as possible.  I can't lift more than 15 lbs until Jan 1.  That is a long time of not doing much.  I hope my firewood pieces don't weigh that much.  I will weigh some of them.  Still raining here.  We are at 1/2'' now.

Mike the wife thought it was pretty funny that you and her agreed about the tree.  LOL  Well I just went to look at it and it pushed off the bldg easier than I thought.  I used my handy electric saw and cut up the branches in my path to the river.  Then I weighed one of the heaviest chunks of wood in my split pile.  A big split chunk of ash.  It is only 9.4 lbs so I will be ok loading up the wood burner in a week or two.

Morning boys. 41 here this morning and supposed to be 40 something. Came home from deer camp yesterday afternoon. So I will hunt the rest of the season on the state land up by home. We had a pretty good run down at deer camp. Went 6 for 7 and only one doe. Bucks were moving. We had a 6 point, 3 8 points and big 10 points that the kid got opening morning. Good luck on the surgery today Barry. Have a good one boys.

[LPS]

Morning boys.  It is 39 and another wet day here.  Heading in to the pain mill at 9.  Glad it is early.  That is a long time to go without food or drink.  I always tell them to not be stingy with the knock out drugs.  LOL  Man that is some good hunting JB.  Well you all have a good one.

[mike89]

way to go JB!!   hang in there LPS!!   

[markn]

Mike, I did stop at Eldons yesterday and picked up two packages of boneless pork butts for $1.49 a pound. Happy with that. Hunt this morning then head home to pick up hides again and head back up here again tomorrow. JB sounds like you guys well. We have a spike, a nine and a ten point in the barn. That’s for 12 people hunting. Got to go, later….

Are you having your surgery right in Baudette Barry?

Mornin' fellow gulag comrades! 42 at choretime heading for a high in the upper 40's. .06" of rain at the ranch & .14" in Bugtussle proper the past 24 hrs. Cloudy and dreary so far. Geriatric car club meeting tonite so need to get mentally prepared for that. Christmas party planning on the agenda. Shouldn't take long but it probably will. Poppy & I survived the 1st nite unsupervised. Hopefully I can teach her how too make G&T's. I'll probably need one or several after tonite's meeting.
