Hi @johneman , sorry for not able to be here more frequently, so I can only pop in here whenever my time and situation allowed.
Thanks for your greeting, I appreciate your energy shown on TW and your regards to your friends!

 

It sounds great

 

Good morning fellow Porchatonians!!!

 

Good morning all.

 

Morning kids

 

Good morning. We had a wonderful time at the wine event yesterday. Sitting at our table was a former Navy Commander. He did 3 tours in Vietnam and was also in Desert Storm. Both he and his wife were a welcomed find at the event. I am not that familiar with Naval ranks, but I know he had an interesting career. Off to an early start this morning. The pork shoulder was on the smoker at 05:45. The game plan is to bring the internal temp up to 203 degrees then let it rest in an insulated box overnight. I will wrap the shoulder at 170 degrees then let it come up to temp wrapped up in butcher paper. Going to pull it tomorrow morning.

Christmas show last night, fundraiser for local mental health awareness

 

Good morning all.
Tom, that looks great...you mentioned you brine it overnight? Never tried that. I normally inject and apply a rub with mustard to make it sticky. Need to try that brine idea!
This is my final day before giving two weeks' notice on the 30th, using up remaining vacation days. Not much work stuff expected today. Wash the truck and dentist visit later.

Foggy morning here in the 727 currently 64* with a high expected of 74*.

Have a great day!

 

Good Thursday Morning on the porch Folks.

Slow start today. Feels like it's a nap day

Have a good day folks

 

Good morning Ken!

 

Good Morning mit...The porch is always open . I took a several month sabbatical as others have done. So drop in anytime we are always here (we have been here for over 13 years) and don't have plans on leaving

Good Morning Mark . Sitting in my office drinking my coffee and watching several neighbors out walking their dogs...They look cold all wrapped up in their winter wear. Wonder what they are going to do when the real winter comes

Good Morning Chuck . Happy Friday Eve.

Morning Jim . Late start for me this morning .

Morning Tom . Always a treat meeting people and hearing about their past experiences. Glad you had a good time. I hope after you pull the shoulder apart, you save some for you and the wife to dine on. It looks delicious.

and for a worthy cause Jim

Good Morning Jim . Good luck with giving in your resignation . Hope you let them know why you are leaving.


Have a wonderful Thursday and be safe out there especially if you are on the road. The Holiday period brings all the worst drivers out...as I put it the Jabronis on the road .

 

Good morning Porch Pals & Sue! I must have done something right, because I am getting biscuits & gravy this morning. Then off for a haircut and errands. Wife is going to Mac some "walking training" with a friend and her dog. Mac isn't real good on a leash yet - he'd rather sit down! But, he did better at the park the other day. Who's a good boi?

 

Good morning fellow Porchatonians!!!

 

Technician coming today to remove the radio (signal input device) from the old satellite dish. I have to send it back. They're very particular about who handles it, how it's shipped, etc... must be expensive, IDK. Maybe I can talk him into removing the whole dish... probably not. IDC, I'll do it myself next summer sometime. It's just trash now. New hardwire connection is working great! Hello 20th century! NOW we're cookin'!
Kids coming in today for a visit and a free meal. Will be good to see them, life goes by in a blur.. we use these times together to catch up and watch each other getting old.. haha! So far, I'm winning! Happy holidays everyone.. keep on truckin'.

 

Good Morning Porch Folks .

Friday has arrived and all is well. Possible snow flurries but no accumulation . Happy Hour with a group of neighbors tonight at our community clubhouse. Always a good chance to catch up with whats going on in the community and have a drink or two, or three, or maybe four .

Have a good day folks and stay safe

 

Morning everyone snowing, might have to deal with it, ie snowblower shovel. Happy Friday

 

Good Morning Mark . Are you ready for Christmas?

Good Morning Mark . Glad to hear the hard wire cable is working for you . Too many issues with the satellite dishes. Enjoy the family time and like you said "life goes by in a blur" . Seems like the other day we welcomed our baby daughter into this world and now she is going to be 50 with 3 kids of her own youngest is 17 . Enjoy them all while you can.

Have a good day Gentlemen and be safe

 

Just a note... I really enjoy this forum. Thanks, and happy holidays to all, including those who make the forum possible.
