[MenagerieGrl]

Well, I gret to take it easy today, distracted, yes, maybe I will get there. Yesterday was Busy, shower, me and my house pigeon, did my monthly 'wash my truck" the deal I made to myself when I got the F-150 Lightning, then Bird Dr. appointment@ 2pm for 3 of my kids (remember, bring tasty snacks, my kids told me), that's a hours drive away, to, and from. Then visit with with some friends (and a lil libation) that live 10 minutes away from the dr's office. Then rush home @ 6:30 to start evening chores, Finally was able to sit down with an adult beverage and have dinner @ 8:45, to bed by 10pm.
Arg, such a long day.....

Good morning everyone!

Cathie I'm just letting you know that I saw a pair of Long-Tailed **** flying over the flat for the first time ever. These birds are small with long forked tails and they are black, white and pink!

Natrah

Ok you'll have to learn a new name for the little Long Tailed,,**** that passes inspection. Is it Long Tailed **** ?

I’ve had days like this and they….stink.
Glad you had your adult beverage;
although one thing I would have done differently is….
Had TWO …adult beverages..

MG overachiever again! Good for you. I have a 150 lightning question....prob the same one you've answered 1000 times before so sorry up front. I have a '16 Expy so similar basic frame..... so how many miles on a charge???

So I feel like such a pig today....remember that 12volt cooler we got for our trips? Well, we have a small fridge and Kerry fills it with useless various green things that take up all the space...LOL At the grocery store I wanted watermelon. I LOVE watermelon....



LOL...some guys keep beer in their garage fridge....im way cooler than that!

Tomorrow we plan on a "test run" in the car with the cooler filled for a picnic, the cargo basket installed in the trailer hitch and both bikes inside the big bag ratchet strapped to the basket.....then we are going back to Horseshoe Beach!

I hope the bikes don't fall off or bounce around. It will be a "learning experience" where we will lock it down and roll...we have confidence!

It's beautiful out here again today. Kerry finally saw fawn an hour ago at the afternoon feeding after 2 days of misses. Yesterday we rode next to a opossum as he saddled towards his home. He was 25 feet from us for around 50 yds. It was apparent that he wanted to cross the path we were on and every 20 yards he would stop and give us the granny look...as if to say WTH? We slowed down to stop and let him get on with his day. Found the 4th box turtle in our yard in a month...all different females. Some things just make the day of a little kid who loves turtles!

Enjoy the day!

Watermelon is one of my favorites too. Especially on an outing in the summer. It's hydrating no matter how you have it. It blends well for great icey fruity drinks too.

Jeff K. I have a 23' Lightning XLT, with the SD battery, 98kWh, the XR is 131kWh. My life time avg. for 7,500mi (12,000km) is 2.36 Mi/kW so, about 230 Mi per full charge (68 MPGe) In relation to other EV's is on the low end, but it's like driving a brick down the road. Relatively big flat front end, so there is a fair amount of wind resistance. It has a 9.6kw power bank that can be hooked up to my house in the event of a power failure. and . . For a F-150, it is crazy fast. rated 3.8sec - 0 to 60, and 12.2sec in the 1/4 mile (106mph)

I have a little family of rabbits living in my yard now. They're running around like they own the place. Front yard and all

Plus some young robins still being taken care of by their parents. I've seen 2 so far I didn't know they are still speckled at that age.

It’s also great with vodka poured inside and left to soak in!

LMAO....3.8?? I've got a garage full of "go fast" things and that's pretty fast for any civilian vehicle! My Expy weighs 6000lbs and it's dual turbos do an admiral job of launching it when it's pedal is mushed but nowhere near those numbers...you must laugh nonstop when you "let yourself follow intrusive thoughts". Also, if 250 mile range works for you, good for you. A fast, reliable truck that fits your life. Sounds pretty good. Ohhh here comes mama deer..i tried to get a pic but she bolted across the yard to chase another deer off...there's Rocky raccoon waddling back home...and someone is playing in the woods just out of sight. Too early for squirrels so maybe mama deer caught her friends?? Getting a pic wasn't an option for either im afraid...jeff was too slow and it's a bit dark.

Today we go to the beach...yesterday was dr visits...no wonder i had forgotten. Lol
I woke at 2am like a little kid...


I've noticed that since our Fox couple died off due to Mange (camera saw 1 had it real bad) and the cats a few blocks away have all been captured and neutered...we have Bunnies! I thought the increase was just local but everywhere we go seems to be the same this year!

Enjoy the day guys....
