Turns out this man is a Christian and asked if he could help to repay for his room and he does construction. I cannot charge for a room in cases like this but he is just a kewl old man to talk to. So he is cutting some wall panels for me. So I made a new friend today, well last night. They found his son and he is coming to pick him up in a few hours. They live 8 hours away. Just an amazing day.

Life is perty dern good!
ya see Moose, as the old saying goes, you reap what you sew. your one good deed was just multiplied many times over.

Never fooled with a hobart. Always ran millers and the feed wheels on them have 3 splines that hold the gears to feed the wire....no way of stripping. Hope ya get it figured out.

Happy Easter, Birthdays and everything else to everyone!

here's a tip- I loved cooked oysters too, but don't try raw oysters while drunk with a gut full of beer. Well, at least it wasn't the best turnout for ME LOL....

I love 'em raw, with horseradish and cocktail sauce. Also love them barbecued (this is Texas!), fried, or steamed with butter and garlic.

Outlaw's Famous Potato Salad
Sweet Corn on the Cob

Can't wait for the first real good boomer up here. I love thunderstorms.
That's a good looking menu Scott.

We had:

Ham
Potato salad
Taco salad
Deviled eggs
Cheesecake

And then it was an Easter egg hunt for the kids. They had a great time with that.


Take care over there Danny.

Evening y'all. Easter was alright for me, I went to see my grandparents and see aunts, uncles and cousins. I did get a ride in my uncles 06 mustang. OH MAN that was fun! I had a big chit eating grin on my face for at least 5 minutes after the ride.

Scott Thanks I'm lucky she is a great kid. The menu sounds good. We had Ham turkey and the normal fixins.

Jim, great job on surpirsing your girl.

Mark, thanks for the laugh, I needed it!

Well folks, chalk up another missed holiday to my love for the Corps. So far it's been 2 Thanksgivings, 2 Christmases, 2 new Years Eves, 2 Saint Patty's Days, 2 Valentines Day, 2 Easters, and many assorted birthdays. Can't complain there are man who missed more, at least I got my "Brothers" out here with me. Tonight we had round pieces of (um, canned?) turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, peas, gravy, and cranberry sauce. I am friggin' stuffed to the gills! Time to get comfy- not taking a shower because of the hellacious sand storm currently shaking the hooch, not worth trading sweat for looking like a sugar cookie- and watch a movie. I hope you all enjoy this special holiday with friends and family and always remember the true significance of the day that Christ rose!
Danny Thanks Be safe my brother!!
