Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Got informed this afternoon we were putting a load on the pickup and heading up the mountain tomorrow. I tried arguing against it thinking I would get fired. Well, that did not work out the way I was hoping! Little Deschutes and Ivycrrest Too - Bravo Compound here we come.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 58.1, clear and sunny. Getting ready to take off to Bravo Compound with a truck load in a bit.

Keep the faith Brett, we're thinking of you.

10 months after mother (sister and funeral home problems) and 8 years after dad's passing, (sister problems) I finally got mom and dad's headstone done correctly and properly placed in the ground. Confirmed everything was done correctly this past week.

Headstone on order, 4-6 months wait! Shocking
thanks everyone for the thoughts and prayers. God makes the difference!

Morning all. Still catching up on chores and clean up from being gone. Managed to find a yellow jacket nest yesterday while mowing. Only got stung twice. Rotton little b--turds. Hoping for more of a day off today but as I look around, I doubt it. Livin the dream.

Good Sunday morning Rich and those to follow.

I've got some errands to run this morning and a few things to get done around the duplex.

Yellow Jackets and hornets tend to be @55holes this time of year!

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 49 and clear here at Bravo compound.
So far this morning the Sage Rats have not been cooperating. A couple of them popped their heads up in the yard but had gone back down before before I could get up to the ‘snipers nest”. The ones down on the dike pop up on the dead run for 25 yards or so and down the hole before I can get the scope on them.

The Warden is laughing her **** off. She’s pretty convinced the Sage Rats changed behavior patterns are because they know I brought the rifle with us this time.


So far smoke from the Bedrock Fire has been going North of us. After we got here yesterday, we took a drive up to La Pine to pickup furniture casters at BiMart since we forgot them when we were at Lowe’s day before yesterday. Smoke was pretty bad up there starting about 3-4 miles south of town.

Seems like deer and elk toy with hunters too. God has a great sense of humor…
