Good mornooning all.

My eldest is 26 today. Twenty six! We are getting to seriously big numbers here... I was a child bride obviously ;)

She has gone to Budapest, Hungary with a friend for a couple of days, so here are some postcards by proxy.

If your daughter is in Budapest for much longer, there are two really good restaurants on the street behind the US Embassy, on “Hold Ulitsa”. I circled in red. The Hungarian restaurant has some really great meals.

Good morning everyone! Hope everyone has a good day. Had therapy yesterday so gonna be sore today.
Yesterday a friend came over and planted a Moringa tree. Of course Opo had to check out what was going on. Tried to eat the plastic bag that the dirt came in. I picked it up so Opo couldn't bite it. I was barefoot and my big toe was hanging over the foot rest. Opo has many times come over and smelled my foot. So I didn't move it away. So he decided this time to bite my toe.:mad:
He didn't break the skin but it made me jump.
Then he kept getting in the way of the shovel. :)
Moringa is both very good for you and for Opo. :D

Good day every one! Popped in to say hello.
I've got to go do some errands but then I think I will lock myself in my art room until it's time to get my daughter from school.
Clunker has been sulking since it has been raining the last couple of days.
Our new goat, I think I have named her Nanny, got to go visit the neighbors billy goat the other day. So hopefully come spring she will have a little kid.
My three dogs (the beasts as I tend to call them) managed to kill a oppossum which they left at the backdoor.. which of course scared the heck out of me when I opened the door. As well as a squirrel, to which I was only gifted the fluffy tail. Apparently.. squirrel tastes good, but not oppossum

Hello Brandy!

My daughter has been doing work (in the UK) for the investors of a road scheme in Columbia and has become rather familiar with dead Opossums. Her Spanish vocabulary has increased somewhat as there are various words for Opossum used in the report and most are far from polite! It would seem there’s little love for Opossums.

I have eaten grey squirrel. It’s OK, but I wouldn’t bother again :D

Back to reality! Just had a beatiful week in Rodanthe, NC on Hatteras Island. I got an awesome moonrise with rods and a rough surf with a rod. Lots of fishing very little catching! Arabella our 10 month old Chow Chow really enjoyed the cooler temps at the beach- she is showing off her stretching ability please not the orientation of both ends! Wife wanted beach front so I booked it! The Noreaster that snuck it maybe the house even more ocean fronty!

Happy birthday Joes sister... lucky you, Linda! Your children are grown and well established and you are still young enough to enjoy them and your alone time!!!

Nice and your chow is beautiful. I love their personality. What's really nice is their hair doesn't bother me. They are such a clean and intelligent dog.

Your card is in the mail, as of today! Let's see how long it takes this time... :)

Just checking in briefly. Hope all my roommates are well!
I'm working on them. That means I'm well. I've actually inspired Joseph to be happy to be involved painting some Christmas paintings.
