My buddy's wife fell over walking down the hall Thursday night and ended up with bleeding on the brain. Looks like they may release her today, but what the hell, who hasn't just tripped over their own feet at times... I guess as we get older the landings are becoming harder...

 

hope she is okay! my father fell couple yrs ago and had the same. he was on blood thinners which added to the problem

 

Sno-Bird Traffic along the Riva' ...…………… Con is outside "Prepping Caterpillars" for the Grand's to watch "Butterfly" process....

A quiet Saturday along The Caloosahatchee

 

No more than we have now

 

Good Morning Everyone !!

Currently 42° rain and high temp of 46° today

 

Battery swap in my daughters Subbie done. The one I replaced was done in 2013, not bad. Should be the last one, 234,000. Miles on the ticker.

 

Hadn't seen many snowbirds in the last 21 days. Only been out a couple times and not many on my street. Probably head to Walmart in a little bit to walk around and get a couple things. Kinda cold and crappy weather. Got a london broil out of the freezer for dinner tonight and probably breakfast tomorrow. Starting to understand the new grill a little better.

 

We have 2 Walmarts near us , one in FT.Myers is actually closer but "during season-no F!@#$ way " ...I will drive out to Labelle and Cowboy country...…… much different atmosphere

New "tools/toys" are nice .enjoy that grill

 

Not good, I hope they keep a close eye on her.

 

@Casper66 look at my pic on page one! Andys in a mood again. LOL

 

Oh, this one is a snowbird sanctuary. Being Saturday and crap weather, there shouldn't be many. And I want to get a look at that Blackstone 36" griddle.... Kevin has me convinced I need one.

 

"That's how I still roll" My 1967 Schwinn Stingray..
They have reissue Stingrays made in China in 1999-2000. Mine is restored with 100% made in Chicago parts, down to the NOS 48 year old tires..

 

Good afternoon!

All the bike pictures makes me think of the time I flew over my handle bars (I’m sure trying to do some cool trick ) and the next thing I knew I was in the hospital with a concussion and 20 some odd stitches in my chin. But hey, I now have a “cool” scar.

Strange thing is, I survived, no one was sued or offended, and I was back out on my bike as soon as I could be.

 

Dang, that’s scary. Wishing her a fast recovery.

Goes to show all of us! Be careful out there!

 

Nice family picture but I thought your wife was blonde?

 

Well, the walmart trip was informative. They had one set up. It could be another 2"-3" taller but they were still full price ($247) so it'll have to wait. Then I made the mistake of stopping at the store. First thing I was met with is one of my biggest pet peeves. "Don't walk in a doorway and stop....move out of the way". Went back to grab a couple packages of tortillas and they were totally out. Pushed my way back to the exit and was met (again) with the same pet peeve....why do people want to stand in the damn doorway?​

 

I was telling one of my buddies (with no kids) how brutal the sleep deprivation is. I was saying that Navy Seals go through hell week where the go 5 days of sleep deprivation,
that aint shit compared to having a baby, multiply that by everyday..

 

My pet peeve too!! This and why do they stop at the bottom/top of the escalator?!

 

I’m sorry.

But that’s some funny shit...

 

x3 or when they stop in the middle of the grocery aisle and give you a dirty look when you say "excuse me" and try to get past them
