grasshopper Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 what are you doing in IN? Visiting relatives? IN is not the vacation hotspot of the country ... though I have been seeing ads for IL as being "In the middle of everything"... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 When I lived in Wisconsin, they had a contest to come up with a new slogan for their License plate. It's been America's Dairyland for years. One of the entries was 'Come smell our dairy air' I kinda liked it... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Ohio's is "The Heart of It All." They got the "it" right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 @Invidiosulus Josh could verify this, but I think his mom took them to the Dairy Sciences place where you could get icecream..ice cream... with a very high content milkfat. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Where is everybody? We're just winding down. Had a 1 1/2 hour flight from Coron back to Manila and a 2 1/2 hour drive to the house. I really hate Manila. Wife understands it more so she deals with it better. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Don't ask me cause I'm the one who wakes up @ 10. Today it was 6:30. Have to get a bit of stuff done shortly before it warms up. Past few day were great temp wise but it's goin up the rest of the week pushin 90. Fuel up, fill the gas cans for the mower, spray for some weeds poppin up on the patio pavers then mow. Already hit the plants outside w/some water. Breakfast can wait cause I wanna get a move on. Take it easy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 We went to one of the malls to pick up some t-shirts... We were looking for plain ones, but I saw this one.. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1291 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 @Marvel a bit more poignant after what you went thru. That I'll admit. Classic line on the t-shirts though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like we may have gone to a location at the student union but it’s been about 38 years so my memory is a little fuzzy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grasshopper Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 was an uneventful day here. No rain... but, it was overcast and relatively cool. Only 100`. It rained around. Enough to cool things down a little 85/ish 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I took a ride north yesterday. Made a good loop around, it was close to 200 mi from Charlotte to Elon to Lenoir to Statesville then back. All that paying attention to everything around the whole time I realized I was tired when I got back here. Nothing new and stuff that was active yesterday morning was contingent when I was at their office. Yeah right! Think it might not have been in the cards for me. Another day and maybe I'll be better prepared after my appointment tomorrow a.m. 😀 But then Dr. Freddy Krueger after lunch I'm sure will slice and dice again. I've got to tell him my new nickname for him. I think he'll get a laugh out of it. He does know I like that cancer gone, so if it's uglier for a few days it's good in the long run. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grasshopper Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 my niece lives in Charlotte and my sister in Gibsonville.... 40 days over 100` in a row in Tucson... and the hits keep coming. They think it might stop Friday with a 99. I'm not one to complain ... but, this is getting tired. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Looks like some rain tomorrow evening around here but then right back up into the low 90's give or take 5 degrees. Youngest daughter was even whining a bit the other day about the Phoenix temps. Guess they're baking bread in the mailboxes. Throw it in, close the door and it's done in 4 hours.

MicroMara Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I´am feeling a bit better, can sleep almost pain-free again and am slowly recovering from the last 2 weeks of agony. Now I get physiotherapeutic treatments and my doctor has decided that I should do a rehab to get back on my feet, after all, I do not want to go into early retirement but still a few years of active work. An early retirement would be my downfall, for that love the active life too much. So it goes slowly uphill again ☺️ 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 @MicroMara been there, done that, got the t-shirt AND the coveted bumper sticker! The struggle is real the older you get. Keef Richards ain't got nuttin on me! Gotta have goals somehow. lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Glad it's getting better @MicroMara, My first biopsy was a BCC or it was benign. Dr. Freddy cut a bigger hole in the other arm today. That one and one more went to get tested today. Oh and the morning didn't go as planned and if Wells Fargo can't get it going by lunch tomorrow I'll use the brokers at the realtors town. Got their names and numbers already. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
