Hello... can anyone hear me?!
Hey top of page!
Drinks on me fellas!

If everything seems under control, you're not going fast enough!
Yet one more treat Sorry guys, I'm just messing with ya...... I think we're all good here.
Farmington Minnesota, A very big grain elevator still there. Picture taken one week ago.
I liked it. TF
I talked to the cop on the corner while I was taking the picture. There was a car show there and he really liked my 69 Mustang.
The tracks are seen right in front of the pine tree. There was three more behind it.
Good Morning!
I can´t believe it! June 30th! Half the year has already gone by!
It´s the first day I feel a little better! The pain is not yet gone, but not as bad as in the past days. My hopes of being able to leave this place soon are rising!
Ken - congratulations on being smoke-free for 60 days now. You know you are past the habit when you stop counting the days Are still "vaping"?
TF - the Bear lives way down south, beyond the Equator, in New Zealand. Winter has just started there.
Memories of bugs! My second car was a 1971 VW 1302L "Super Bug", which already had a fan to de-fog the windshield. Not that this was very effective, though. Nice car, I wish I had it today!
Have a good one!
Happy times!

Track fiddlerThanks Bear. I just read the bottom of your page and I must say...... I'm confused. I'm confused What?........ Do you live in Antarctica, Greenland or the Klondike?
“Well the main question Bear?
Did you get the Floatplane matter resolved?”

Good morning, everyone. It's Sunday, so no Bloody Mary until later.
Bear, you live in a beautiful country. At one time, I wanted to visit. However, at my age, I've decided there are too many places in the U.S. that I haven't yet seen, so that's where my trips will probably be. It's no wonder some of our best movies are filmed in your country with the great scenery.
Ulrich, so glad you are beginning to feel better.
When I put in my fireplace, I installed a heavy duty screen over the top of the chimney. I learned from my father-in-law after he got a nest of birds in his chimney. I can't imagine have a dead raccoon in the chimney for months.
I used to cut and split a lot of firewood, but last year gave it up. I buy firewood from a former student -- he brings a pickup load every so often. Starting in October, we have a fire just about every day.
It's mainly for the smell and view. It's a regular fireplace, and I know that more of the house's heat goes out the chimney than we get heat from the fire, but both of us love the fires.

I found out that I am an angry person, so I decided that an anger management class would do me good!
I signed up with these guys:
Today is June the Last, it has been a good visit here (wherever here is, I forgot).
July Middle of Summer... Howabout Washington DC, or is that too hot and humid this time of ear.
How about Plattsburg NY. They got a train track going through there. And then we could swim in the pond.

"The first five days after the weekend are always the hardest"
That is Rich. Do I have permission to borrow that one?
That's a good one Ulrich.
TF
Bear. I will probably never get to see New Zealand in my life. It sure looks beautiful. Thanks
Afternoon Diners
Flo, give the gang and I a please and Ulrich anything he wants.
Ulrich Far as counting the days with out smoking? For some reason I like to keep track of such things. Maybe I should have been a Book Keeper. I can tell you I have been saving change for the last 434 weeks, I have been with this company 306 weeks, have not worked with Jerry the for 161 weeks and I have read 297 books in the last 306 weeks! Guess it is just my nature? I can even tell you what I have spent on Trains the last 3 years.
Yes I am still vapping and kicking that habit will be the hard part. Main thing stopping me gor now is the cash outlay. To get a E Cigarette where I can control the Nicotine content I am looking at $70.00. Yea that is cheap, but not in the budget this month or next.
Later, none smoking Ken
I hate Rust
Am I invisible?
NWP SWP Am I invisible?
I see you!
What would you study at LSU?
I've narrowed it down to some sort of Behavioral Psychology, maybe Criminal Science, or just general business management.
Not quite sure probably won't declare a major my first semester.
NWP SWP. . .I'm currently planning on taking the motorcycle licensing course in Zachary, I've been considering getting a motorcycle for a while and this would be the first step. . .
I was in your place a few months back. I had always wanted to own a motorcycle but said I would not get one until I first learned to ride. I took the Motorcycle Safety Foundation two-day Basic Rider Course which included the tests to get the motorcycle endorsement on my license. This was a great way to get started. Some suggestions from my experience.
Good luck. Be cafeful. Be alert. (The world needs more lerts.)

Yeah I was thinking a used Harley Sportster, they came with 800cc engines, they are in my price range, and is the style bike I like.

Nice bike. Just remember to save your money after you buy the bike. You know what they say, "HD stands for another Hundred Dollars."
Yeah
