    Is Mike easily upset? Concentrate on upsetting those pins.
    Remember what a friend from NoDak told me years ago. "They told me, 'Smile, things could be worse.' So I smiled, and sure enough, things got worse."
    Hatchery Manager in SE Alaska often said, "Things could be worse." So one fine winter morning, while I was shoveling snow out from between the Weatherport tents that were our seasonal bunkhouse facility, he was plowing snow with the Cat 910 wheel loader. He stopped as I walked out from behind the tents, I climbed up on the loader and as he opened the door I said, "Things have been worse." Grins for both of us.
    "Don't Worry, Be Happy," Tacoma pin striker Mike. (Besides, It's Five O'clock Somewhere...) :broccoli:eat cruciferous vegetables, too.

    Wandering/Exploring with the GB...one of my favorite things. Especially where there are few, if any people.

    Ah, that makes sense.

    Chickens are just miniature T-Rexes in disguise.

    Swamp Azz weather continues.
    Dooo Point 74 right now. Crab grass cutting today, can't let it go for the end of the week.
    Shit is wet and heavy and doesn't dry out. Still cutting weekly thanks to all the rain this year.
    Gotta stay well hydrated today.
