The 'sketti dinner sounded good Ken - think I'll fix that tonight for me and my bride. Got a box of Texas Toast w/ garlic in the freezer too. 4 min in the toaster and it's ready.
Howdy Bud...enjoy your sketti dinner...quick and easy...a lot of clean up though.

LOL I had nothing on the agenda for the day but was informed I must care for the lawn out back. and maybe make feta cheese this afternoon. We will see what happen.

Sketti dinner does sound good! We have fresh ground beef and it will either be Flied Lice or maybe I can talk Becky in to spaghetti !! Never know here what it will be until the pots and pans come out!

Lin today is turnout day for the hen and chicks with the rest of the girls!

Bud I thought you were/had ordered new knuckles for the project?
Good afternoon Rod...have I ever mentioned how much I love a good boomer??? Nothing special on the menu...a couple of hot dogs and some baked beans for lunch. Hope your weekend is going well.

Afternoon all !

Hades was here today and helped me with my Barn chores, digging up rocks and mowing the lawn. He finally took my offer of an iced drink and cooled off a bit.
Wind is starting to pick up a bit and rain will be here tonight and all day tomorrow

I guess we will miss the Eclipse Sunday night

Going to bed early tonight to catch up on sleep

Good evening to the Massachusetts gang!

Thanks for all the birthday and Anniversary wishes. We didn't do a whole lot, took the camper for a little 30-mile road trip to a little campground where to creeks converge. Had a picnic, made sure everything in the camper was working up to par, took a nap and came home. Nice relaxing day.

Howdy Lin...not sure who Hades is...The God of the Dead in Greek mythology??? You're right...no lunar eclipse viewing for us...overcast with rain. Hope you get your sleep tonight.

Good soggy Sunday morning Massachusetts...and...all who visit!!! Woke up this morning to a very humid 65*...on the way to the low 80s this afternoon...chance of showers all day. The birds are happy though...they're chirping away providing some background music for my trip around FTE. Hope MA Nature is treating you better!!!

The C's host the Bucks in game 7 of their series...win or go home. I understand that you can pick up a couple of courtside tickets for a mere $5429 each.

Wellllllllll...the Bs are headed for their tee times this morning...losing to the Hurricane...3-2 yesterday. They made it interesting by scoring a goal with 30 seconds left in regulation and storming the net after that...but...ultimately...no go. FORE!!!

The Sucks are choking away their lead on the Nos in the "Race For Last Place"...beating the Rangers again...11-3 while the Nos were shut out by the Tigers...3-0.

Believe it or not...I don't have a lot on the schedule for today...but...what else is new???

Hope y'all have a great day!!!

Joyous Sunday morning Massachusetts, Ken, Lin, Don, Chris, John, Tim, George and all the crew. Hope everyone has had a good weekend. It looks like the eclipse will be a wash for us with, according to the soothsayers, storms moving in about 1700. Cloudy throughout the night but if the eclipse is after 2100 I will be unconscious in bed!

Good soggy morning here too Massachusetts. Yes Ken I'd be better off getting interested in golf seeing that is where the leaf's interests seem to fall every year..at least Edmonton made the second round, hopefully Calgary can today..

Morning Ken, Lin, John, Don, all MASS and and visitors. Looks like a wet PM for us too..t-storms predicted for tonight/tomorrow. Tomorrows are predicted to be bad ! We'll see. Local forecasters are saying there is a CHANCE to be able to see the eclipse tonight around 11:30 to midnight. I'll take a look after the news.

Rod sez this: "Bud I thought you were/had ordered new knuckles for the project?" I don't have a clue what you mean Rod ! Ahhh, I'll bet he meant John, not me ! Rod proof read???? NEVER !

Good evening all...temp got up to 84 very humid degrees...more sun than expected...had to fire up the A/C this afternoon. Clouds are moving in now...some rumbles of thunder to the west...no eclipse for us. Hope MA Nature was treating you better.

Cs rolled over the defending champion Bucks this afternoon at the Gahden...winning 108-81. The Bucks head for the links while the Cs head to Miami to take on a very talented and well rested Heat team...Saturday #2.

Hope y'all have a great evening.

Howdy John...been a long time since a Canadian team has won the cup...I believe that was 1993 when the Canadians beat the Kings. Gonna be tough to do it this season...lots of dominating American team left.

Howdy Bud...same type of weather here. Nos tried to catch up to the Sucks...but...Baahston didn't let that happen.

No body is making stock height steering knuckles for the early 79-91 Chevy 1 tons and have been obsolete from GM for years. I told them to source from a wrecking yard seeing as they had to be more plentiful south of the border simply by numbers. I would have thought they could have cleaned them up before sending them but found out afterwards it was the guy who took my order that provided the steering knuckles because Scott'ss Hot Rods weren't planning on doing anything for me seeing as they already got their money..
