    As long as you are happy with your score, that's all that matters.

    Our heat wave is here for another week give or take a day or two... :annoyed: so ready for even 90* temps. Back to normal!!!!

    Bigger is better!
    As long as you had fun, the scores are not that important.

    Back when I played (at) golf, by the next day after a round, I mostly remembered the good shots.

    :pccoffee: :wave: This part-time work schedule is getting to be a PITA again. Workload is too high to fit into it. Grumble.

    Hi lady and gents,
    Coleman Gathering went well, not many of us went, about five of us was all, most only had a hour drive, one guy drove up from S CA, 9 hour drive, die hard. Spent last week at my moms cleaning up the yard. Mid to upper 90's most of the week. Humidity from 5% to 10%. My brother and I signed papers with a Realtor to place it up for sale in mid August. Had an inspector come in, some small things to fix was all. My garden is looking great, my neighbor watered it while I was gone.
    Hauled two loads of debris to the dump from moms place. Second load, the GVW was over 5600 lbs, the truck only weighs about 4340, so a nice load of yard waste, plywood and boards. :) Truck ran nice, couldn't tell it was loaded.

    It's good to have a truck sometimes. Sounds like you're getting things in order. Sorry there weren't more people at the gathering! I went to a Subaru SVX gathering earlier this year and only 4 people showed up. A few years ago there were 30.

    If I could have saved all my best shots I could win the US OPEN. However, I couldn't even win on a putt putt course.
    Just being with him was fun. He was a good man....

    One guy was unable to make it, he has one of the original Herbie bugs, restored back to original look. He drives it up to the Truckee area usually, loaded with Kamplite lanterns and other lanterns under different names, but by Kamplite. Wealth of info, just have to overlook the fact he lives in San Francisco.

    Reached someone at the Social Security office for this area out west. Phone tag slightly, but will start receiving money deposited into my checking account in a week or so, then the fourth Wednesday every month starting in Sept. So, only lost three months of SS income since I stopped working. When I see money is being deposited into my account, I can cut back on my IRA withdrawals. Great day today. Realtor says he may have a offer for my brother and I to look at when we go to moms to work on the place again in three weeks.
    My ribs hurt more now than when I went down on my dirtbike a couple weeks ago. Must have been the moving of plywood sheets at moms. Now it hurts when I sneeze. Ouch.

    Morning all:
    Been a little busy here, nothing out of the ordinary but will never ever get caught up with things to do. :ballchain:
    GRRR :annoyed:! Just got done hooking up a digital box for the TV. Should be easy, NOPE, 30 min. job turned out to be about 3 hrs.!!!:(:( Either I missed something in the instructions, or part the instructions weren't too good!

    Pretty soon it will be time to take the little guy fishing Sue, don't get rid of your fishing poles. :D

    Sounds like things are starting to fall into place Duane, hopefully the ribs will stop bothering you shortly.

    Woohoo!!!! Got my first direct deposit Social Security benefit on Wed, two days after talking with a SSA rep. :) Seven weeks or so for the next.
    Went camping after a backpacking trip to Lassen Volcanic NP. Got the truck all dusty. :) Wash board surface on some hills on the Forest Circus dirt roads, traction control would kick in briefly. :)
