Thanks, Ron 😊

The itching, I've already caught her a few times with the butt end of a butter knife!

Took the first 4 with a flash...definitely an oddball but pretty cool.

Forgot to mention, the week following this item I shared with you we stopped in this place and it was gone....strange coincidence I guess! That fish has been there since I started visiting regularly then after our conversation it sold. There were a few other customers in the area that day, suppose someone watched me taking snapshots then put it back, grabbing it after we left! Who knows, thought I would mention it 😊

What's really weird, if you'll notice they both have a boo-boo on the same arm, same area! My two favorite girls 😊

Well, no fishing today...heard yesterday afternoon the area I wanted to go to is pretty sloppy ☹....Still have my other plan of treasure hunting too indulge in today, after we make a stop at Gundersen Hospital for a cast change. Still have a little while before she can shed this cast, that's one of the tougher bones to deal with when it comes to healing time involved.

A General marble and Glass chat discussion I didn't read totally right away, but since its focus is apparently on the contents of marbles, seemed like the place to share an Aventurine sphere I picked up a while back...

Pretty neat stuff you got going on there, Marbo 👍

Lived in Florida half my life so I'm familiar with hot but were talking different kinda hots when it comes to there and where you some of you guys are. Patty is from California, the Red Bluff area, and her oldest son still lives there. And my grandfather lived most of his life in Scottsdale, Arizona. Also have an older sister who retired with her family and built a home down in Fredericksburg, Texas. It gets that crazy hot out there!

Alrighty...found 2 more mibs, alongside and under the refrigerator. Somebody partied really hard last night. Now he takes my chair 😕

Was going to mention, speaking of dogs...the other night, laying there watching "Medium" reruns, Uno reared up in a dead sleep and let out this long sad howl. Scared the crap out of us. Still in a deep sleep, she laid her head back down. I started petting her back and she slowly woke up, very groggy. Looked at us, wagged her tail a couple times and went back to sleep! Never had a dog do that before. I'll never forget that eerie, sad howl. It was like she lost something precious to her. Some dream she must have had.

Sorry to hear this...warmest condolences and well wishes too all family and friends ❤

Just read a story from this week out of Fresno California where a car owners sun protector literally melted in the car....hot indeed out there!

They were from a handful I had on the floor in front of my display case from sorting. Helped himself during the night!

Sure enough, little cats eye under the bench AND found another under the table...he really partied last night.

Oh boy, might be one under there too. He was busy last night 🐈

Found this shooter on the floor this morning....and here's the guilty party (Whiskers) snooping under the stove seconds after I took the first picture. He walked over as soon as I knelt too take the picture of the marble, meowing, then walked out too the kitchen and began to reach under the stove. What on earth could possibly be under there? 🤔😉

Hopefully...that exact area, southeast Houston county where Brownsville is located, was in a flood advisory last night. Just had tons of rain over the area. Plus now Patty wants to have her cast changed tommorow, which will probably be midday. We'll see, but might have a change of plans regarding destination and the day.

Good morning! Thought I would ask how things are going with your video production regarding European machine mades...I was watching/listening too a few of your others at work yesterday (CNC with extremely long cycles per part 😁) and thought I would check!

Going fishing down around Brownsville, Minnesota this Friday, around a place called Wildcat Landing. The area I'm hitting is all Mississippi backwaters. My buddy Ron Hagen pulled in some big pike and a monster 40+ pound catfish this past weekend while out with his son. This area down there boasts some of the best fishing in Southeast Minnesota. Looking forward to it 😊

That is great! Love the memories, man 👍

A mild December of 30s and 40's isn't bad at all...we only had one stretch earlier this year hitting-30 or so for lows. With the light, loving it now. It's right at 9pm now and still a little light. Don't like the days when it's dark going on 5pm.
