Hosting Thanksgiving

We will be hosting our family this Thanksgiving & this is what's on our menu













I have been craving Costco Pumpkin Pie for months

Oh yeah, Banana Cream pie


Plus I won't go into detail over all the crackers & cheeses, etc.

Of course, we have been dieting. I've been doing really well and am happy with my results so far. Of course I'll gain weight Thursday / Friday but I'll be back at it over the weekend.

Next week I'll be going to Southworth dock for the rest of the winter/fall schedule. 
I'll have a 40 hour schedule, which includes 3 GRAVEYARDS, 10pm-8am. Those are going to suck but its a pay check. At Brem I'd be lucky to get 4 hours some weeks.

I dislike SW and those are going to be long, lonely nights, especially after the seller leaves for the night at 2am. But wait, Diana will be working at least a couple of those nights and she lives on the island so she will keep me company.

Bohemian Rhapsody


I think this is one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life.

A Few New Things


The front fence is new because the assholes took to wandering in the frikkin road. They've been contained in the back pasture this last month while this was put up.

Notice the fake gate at the far end? There is an old easement there that we want to maintain so even though there isn't really a gate, it looks like there is.

This is what this section of fence looked like, it had old rotten posts, barbed wire, field fence, hog panels and rotten boards, all being held up by the plethora of weeds & bushes.


Today we gave these boards to a guy who is going to put them up on his fireplace wall. 

This is NOT the section the horses went through, that was the field fence 
between us & the neighbors.


What it looks like without any fence.



What else is new? Hoka One One has brought back the original Clifton 1 running shoe & these are the ones that made running fun & not a chore. I'm going to have to go buy a pair & if I still love them I'll get a few more, before they decide to upgrade them again.


And this is new. I won a contest & this is my prize.
