I used to be that go to guy. After the accident I quit getting calls. Showed me who my friends really where. I am on NextDoor also. I have given advice but many times a person needs something fixed but I am not capable of doing it now. It bums me out when I read those posts. Now I just call @jeff kushner to drive down from Maryland to Florida to get fix things around the house 🤣
Well Ray I'll be You in 5 years, 10 years. I fear sooner rather than Later. My emphysema will be my handicap, It slows me down NOW. Work on my truck for 20 to 25 min, take a break, then back at it. I don't have the stamina that I once had.

It added about 1 1/2 hrs. It was backed up before the bridge but traffic was moving slowly. Really the 6 miles on the dirt roads was the worst. Old country roads all wash-boarded out. Made for a uncomfortable ride.
But you didn't have to go across the Cincinnati bridge. I hate driving across that bridge from South to North. I've read that it's in the top 10 most dangerous bridges in the US. I believe it unless they've upgraded it from 2004.

Yes we went across the bridge. The detour was a few miles after the bridge. Thought the bridge would be Mitch McConnells pet project. But to late for the Mitch

Good morning everyone!

I may not be able to post so much next week because I am packing to go on holiday to Oxford a week on Saturday. Jacky 🐢 leaves for her holiday when she stays with my friend with the vegetable patch a week on Friday.

Oh come on Ray, "The Turtle" is doing great! Didn't you see his hospital pic?

While not touching on taboos, i did hear Bob Iger @ Disney was called in for consultations. Apparently his wife is interested in how Disney Animatronics work. LOL

Sounds like you're having a good time bud. Wasn't too long ago you were twisted thinking you wouldn't make it back to MI so this is cool to see.

That year has flown by. Doesn't seem that long since you went there last time.

Lola and I have a visitor.
A canary I spotted in my garden this morning. Its quite tame so obviously a lost pet.
I managed to catch it easily enough and I had an old bird cage in my attic so it's nice and safe. I've been shopping for canary supplies but hopefully it will be claimed soon, or I'll re-home it.
