    Oh heck no. I can't fish. I drink beer, and piss off the side of the boat.

    I had to blow that picture up very large to find the tiny white animal in the forefront of the photo.

    Good morning all. Another unusually warm day here in PA. 64 degrees riding in to work this morning and going to be in the 70's when I leave this afternoon. I actually cut my grass one last time on Tuesday. Mostly just mulched up the leaves really. :pccoffee:

    Good morning. Finally, back to a normal schedule in my life. I am too old to be a voting judge anymore. The long days are just too tiring. If you voted, thank you. With the numbers in, from across our wonderful country, 15 million less voters voted this Presidential election, kind of sad really.

    My 18 yo granddaughter voted for the first time this year. She was very excited to learn how to interpret the different sides of the amendments. I was proud of her taking time to learn how to research each vote she made. Hopefully she will keep it up for life.
    Cold morning here at 19*! Brrrr! Cloudy cold day, so I’ll spend most of it in my man cave, or my heated garage. Installed a garage heater a couple of years ago and should have done it many years ago! I only keep it at 55*, but that and a jacket are perfect!
    Hoping everyone can make this a great day! It’s a perfect day to learn something new!

    :pccoffee: Good Morning Porch Pals & Sue! Not a chill this morning, and already near 80*. Spotty showers supposedly, but spotty might be overdoing it. I think I am tackling the mirror replacement after some more coffee.

    Afternoon all:

    This morning we got to where we were going to hunt, my buddy forgot to put his bow in the truck! :facepalm: He said go hunt and I'll wait for you in the truck, NO, let's go back and get your bow, shit happens, just like when I forgot to put my gun, or the boots for my stocking foot waders in the truck, or forgot the primer powder for the flintlock, easy to forget stuff!

    Forgot to buy a hunting license one year. Had to spend opening day driving back to town to get a license. Very humbling since I was with a camp full of hunting buds. LOL!

    I went to deer camp one year, forgot my winter boots. Standing there in my tennis shoes in the snow I said well I'm done, no hunting for me. So one of the guys in camp, a big dude that towered over me said I've got an extra pair you can wear. I said yeah right like I'll be able to walk in your boots, lol. He wore the same size as me, I was totally surprised! I said how's a big guy like you walk on little feet like mine, lol. Trip was salvaged.

    :cheers: Well, it's a simple enough job, and working more slowly than the average human ensures a couple hours in the sun. Honest, you just remove the door panel and sail, (3) 10 mm nuts, fish the new longer cable through and tie up the excess, replace the nuts, replace the panels. Remembering to lower the windows before you remove the switches will save you a couple minutes. Except for the level of blackness, hard to tell I did work.

    Have a group of 3 buddies who went out hunting together, one of the guys forgot to bring ammo. The other 2 wouldn't give him any rounds.
    Pretty crappy friends. The guy that forgot his ammo is one of the nicest guys in the world that has had a shitty set of circumstances in his life.
    Divorced twice, back injury, throat cancer. If it wasn't for bad luck this guy wouldn't have any luck at all.
    Lives on his own in Pine Valley California. I try and get up to see him when I can and spend some time visiting.
    We head out towards Campo once in awhile to do a little target shooting right by the border fence.
