Good Morning all,
Just wanted to report a BUSY weekend ahead, A Maintenance Car arrived!! And a whole lot of work scheduled for its stay. Looks like the crew has been working very hard, seems they are losing weight. Won't be too rough on them.
Take care and have a great day !!

Morning all. Back from Court with Grady [neighbor]. Got him a Public Defender. Judge says if found guity, you have to pay Public Defender. How do you do that with no income???? Ended up helping lady who is a wittness of a theft at Dollar General. Guy didn't show [one of the gang at the pond] and they don't notify wittness that they can leave. One of my PD officers was the arresting officer and she got it taken care of early so lady could leave and go back to work.
Got to go finish getting up leaves. Then we will suck up Grady's leaves.
20 degrees!!!! Not here. Might have our first freeze tonight.
Sure glad Shake and Bake has to work all weekend as I have to do Mayor things all weekend. Well, maybe not Sunday.
Later.

MTH HO steam is cataloged from $449.00 to $599., thats not cheap from where I sit. If I were in HO on the store shelf is where they would sit. 2010 Vol. 1,pgs. 9 and 10.
Not much going on today. I had another potential Christmas gift fall through. I saw an ad on that popular classifieds site for an 89 Probe LX, but it has been sold already. So, I'll start calling the yards next week to see if I can find one that hasn't been wrecked. I shouldn't have passed on two of them a few years ago. The smoke unit parts for the 302 didn't get here today, so it is still in pieces. I need to replace the link coupler anyway.
BRUTUS!!!! And many mooooore!!!!
BUCKEYE, I forgot,
TGIF!

Brutus, a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY shout out to you sir!
Just taking a few moments to collect myself. Mom's surgery is not going well. Her pressure dropped off and they are having difficulty controlling the bleeding. Wish I was up there, or that she had come here as I tried to get her surgeon to go for a less invasive approach. Well, that is mute now, but we will lift our prayers and see what happens. I'll get back soon, but looks like I will be heading to NJ.
God Bless,Dennis

Evening all. Finished leaves in my yard and then did Grady's yard. He ran the leaf blower. Got a new on from Lowes. Pouland for $99. 200 MPH. Well, it is better thant he high dollar Homlite I have. Will blast leaves out of bushes and etc. Took Homelite to the lake as not much to do there. Now the new bagging blades from JD are something. DUST!!!!! Sucks the dirt off of the ground as well as the leaves. JD that Frankie has had bagging blades but not as "strong" as these. You are running in a fog all the time. Cleaned the air cleaner twice today.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRUTUS
This is for LAZ. Fred Davis has been hunting my lease since the last of August. He mainly bow hunts. Shot big doe opening say. Then shot one later. Been watching spike and 4 pointer. Been seeing does but not big as he wanted. Took his blackpowder and saw nothing. Took his pistol yesterday morning. Big doe under tree. Had her in the crosshairs, cocked the hammer and she ran away. Heard the click. This afternoon, small 5 pointer came in and stood right under him. Shot him with bow [broadhead] through the back, he ran 20 yards and dropped.
That hole in his back is the entry hole. Big hole for broadhead.
Happy Birthday Brutus! for Dennis and everyone else that needs them.
I'm back. Got grave news from NJ. Mom doesn't look like she will survive this. In the morning, FIL will be here to watch the kids. Kim and I are driving up...about 17 hours. Thanks for the prayers.
Dennis
Dennis, Prayers on the way.
Drive safely

HI GYZ,

CHIEF, way to go for your friend. CONGA to him. Ask him for some backstraps, best part of the deer, tenderlions.
Pheasant hunting tomorrow.
SF,
Dennis. prayers. If you need a "pit stop" you know where Rolesville is and how ot get the keys to the lake house. God bless.
Good night all. [eyes have had too much dust]
Evenin' Ladies & Gents.
Bad stretch for many here and elsewhere, for so many in need. As for the cause of some of these miseries I'll just bite my tongue and keep my yap shut.
Fairly good day at the nuseum today. Went in early for some housekeeping chores prior to regular pre-opening chores. Threw a couple of tires but no crashes.
GrimReaper Gateman arrived today, day late and a dollar short.
Let's see there was something else, .
Oh , yeah!
Brutus !

Morning all. LAZ, did you slip down south? Pam just came in and said she heard a shot down at the lease. She could not tell if it was the lease or the narrow band of woods next to it. A few hunt that narrow band but not too often as I have hunters in my lease [Fred is the main one, preacher and his son somtimes]. Got to go start a 5K race for the Rolesville Fall Festival. Visit awhile. Then go meet Frankie at the Fairgrounds for a big train show [not our TCA and mainly HO]. Finally hit the low 30's here. Warming tough with bright sun. Have a good one.
Chief - Remember to pace yourself, easy on the hydrating, and stretch pretty good before. Hope you win! Good luck!
Dennis prayers for your mother and sorry to hear the grim news hope you have a safe trip. Remember chief has places for you all to relax a night on the way back. Wish I could offer the same but I'm out of your travel way or would be glad to offer the same. As I do have a spare Bedroom right now. If you decde to come this way offer open.
Morning all not a lot going on right now at work as off yesterday and work the weekend plus monday then off 2 days.
