    A little something every chance we get.
    :pccoffee: Good morning Porch Pals & Sue, and welcome newbies! Waited for rain most all of the day, and it only came after going to bed! 1.2 windy inches. Did some early errands and putzing before going to the Hangar Open House for "That's All....Brother" departure for Europe. Mostly CAF people - we had a popular Margarita machine - and a couple of guests from "Wings and Warriors"; who is a trip sponsor. I could not hear their little speech, but that's OK. Got the Mrs. to give me a pinup pose before we left for dinner.

    Went to a new place that just opened in Martindale down the road. Kind of not at all what expected, pricey menu with not a lot to choose from, and thank goodness we got in just before they started charging a cover for the band. $25 each, for what was possibly the worst band (and loud) I have ever heard. I would guess it would be Tejano (which is fine), but was hard to tell. Drummer could not stay on track, and the singing accordion player defined "caterwauling"! Glad to get home to a hungry doggo!

    I’ve had Marathon camo seat covers for 10 years. They really protect my seats. My dog rides in the back seat and after hunting he jumps in wet, dirty and muddy. My marathons easily clean up and they completely protect the seats. After 10 years they have faded a little from sun and abuse. I’d expect that after 10 years.

    :wave: sixtys/wannabes/seaters. I have seat covers made in Hawaii, can't remember the name. They're neoprene, made to get wet I guess! I bought them used from a forum member about 1/2 an age ago. They still work.

    Evening all:

    I have cover king seat covers on, 2nd set I have owned and only buy them on sale, they are a good fit and seem to hold up fairly decent.
    One thing though, on the bucket seats, on the raised edge facing the door, they will begin to wear through after about 4-5 years from the constant rubbing getting in and out of the vehicle, don't know if other brands do that also, but other than that I'm well satisfied with them.

    I can vouch for the advantages of rugged covers - but now, as my outfit is closing on the end of year 10 - the cushions have plainly suffered from my inability to push away from the table...........

    Pushing away from the table sometimes isn't easy. When the food tastes good.

    Since my retirement I have built significant “table muscle” from not pushing away.

    Nice, I did boneless skinless thighs yesterday on the Kettle.

    I rarely have a drink when we go out. Sometimes in the summer I might have a Mojito.

    Good morning. Monday morning and another quiet day. We had a busy weekend.

    :pccoffee: Good Morning Porch Pals & Sue! Healthy wishes to all to start the week! Off to the Dentist this morning for a crown that I skillfully avoided all last year. Then, some greenhouse watering putz.
