    Congrats on the new pup. Looking forward to meeting him. I'll probably bring treats.

    Both our dogs are 13 years old. The thing about dogs is, they are always loyal and always there for you.
    We've been talking lately about what to do when these 2 are gone.
    I'm sure I'll come home and surprise the wife with a pup.

    We've had that conversation, too. Decided that having dogs will be too costly to kennel. We want to do a lot of traveling after Kimm'r retires, and having dogs would put a crimp on our plans.

    Cute fish! Are you going to use them as bait?

    Thanks for all the birthday wishes.

    Worked on bikes yesterday and did two camps so I could have today off. Big. Did a shop inventory for the end of year today. I always stock the shop for the winter so I don't have to reimagine what I did last year in the spring. A better way would probably be to sit on the money and buy in the spring; except, 1.) I want truck parts more than stock for the shop, and 2) parts are available now and that is not always the case in the spring. Also tend to be sale pricing from wholesale providers this time of year. Helps keep pricing down.

    Sure wish I was wandering around out west... Seriously thinking this my last year in the classroom.
