I knew there was something about that reference to lungs in your username! Have you found an armadillo to sit on? Coffee? Or shall I call to the One-legged Pirate to fetch you something stronger?
I don’t know but I just got over the flu, and snot was running out my nose. I was feeling like a dead duck.

I’m prepping for a bit of an adventure, so you will hear less of me for a bit. Wrapping up the couple of wood projects (bowls, tool holder, candle sticks) today, soaking Sully, aquarium water changed out, some plant watering (including fig trees that are really budding out) and banana tree.

Spring is in the air. Birds singing, less active at the feeders, daffodils bursting to bloom, rose bushes with deep red new growth scratching to grow & bloom. Grass is greening. And, we could hear the Spring Peepers last night.

Sounds like a long-ish adventure in the works.

Good Morning CDR!
Lots more rain this morning but pretty bright at the moment. We have to batten down the hatches for Weds and Thurs.
The Jet Stream is really strong at the moment apparently - hope it has a rest soon!

Sounds exciting! Send postcards if appropriate and practical!

The way I understand it. The conestoga wagon was used by the pioneers for travel because it could hold up to 6 tons. It was operated by 2 men. One man controlled the horses and the other was in the rear on the left side controlled the brakes. So it was adapted being on the left when automobiles were designed. That's what I read on the internet. It most be true.

Cool fact!!! Thanks for sharing.. it has the ring of truth to it[emoji6]
