    Morning All, looks like a wet rainy stormy day here in central Va. Mark I share your dislike of clearing out of possessions of relatives and handling all the paperwork.
    Off to church here shortly, and then into the garage this afternoon to do some cleanup. Trying to make a productive day out of a rainy one.

    Same here Tex, wishing the best for your mother.

    Beginning to think we live in a rainforest, yesterday I had to use the string trimmer on some parts of the yard that I couldn't mow because of it being so wet. :annoyed:

    Welcome Thom, about time you saw the light, nice truck!

    Good luck with the septic problem Duane, like you stated, that can turn into an expensive proposition.

    Thanks to all for your thoughts. Just heard from one of my brothers that mom had a pretty good nights sleep and will be headed back home later today. I still have the truck cocked and ready to go if necessary.

    We laid our dad to rest 4 years ago. Mom has had Alzheimer's disease for several years and doesn't have a clue who I or the rest of the siblings are. It's been and going to be a tough stretch ahead. Fortunately I have enough brothers/sisters down there to do most of the work .... they call me with updates quite often.

    My mother passed away 5 years ago. Today, June 6 2016, would have been her 100th birthday.

    The last two haven't been much better, if any at all. Don't like either of them. :rant:

    Morning Ken
    The spring walleye fishing is the worse I have experienced in years! :( We should just move out a little deeper and target stripers, the lake is loaded with them.

    I don't feel good about the front runners, Trump shot himself in the foot again I think over recent comments, I was off camping, so did not hear the complete comment over a racist they say, remark.
    Many of us in Kalifornia want to seperate from the state and become the state of Jefferson.
    The garden is loving the heat, sunflowers are growing like weeds, corn is still not sure, beans popped up overnight it seems after 10 days. Put tomato cages over my few maters and staked my Anaheim peppers, taking both the maters and peppers Wall-O-Waters off. Added another row of twine to the Peas so they can be supported more.
