That is a great score on your bowling. I have never broken 180 on the limited amount of bowling that I have done.

You can definitely keep those colder temperatures up where you are.

That is an odd work schedule “6:00 to 2:00am. What type of work has a 6 to 2, 2 to 10am, 10 to 6pm ?? Just curious to me.

Turning 62 so I signed up for Social Security. Getting closer to retiring I guess.

I retired on my 59th birthday. Drove big rigs,single double,triple trailers. I started out in my own big rig. Drove 49 states 38 years and accident free 2 1/2 million miles.

I want to go to Hawaii and drive a truck so i can say I did all 50 states.
I turn 78 this year June 1,2023. Retired in 2004. And I still slam the gas pedal.

2 1/2 Million accident free miles is absolutely phenomenal!!! I know because I was a President or Vice President of a trucking company between 1980 & 2008. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Hope you had fun Trickskier!


I have been busy for the last few months caring for a handicapped & slowly declining geriatric pet rabbit. It had become a 24/7 job toward the end but we loved her so no regrets. She passed over the rainbow bridge a couple weeks ago. It feels weird not having her around. She was with us for almost 12 years. I am now getting back into crafting, jewelry making, & painting. Plan on doing some weekend drives, overnight trips & some hiking & rock hounding whenever this nasty weather breaks.

90ish here and the grass is getting crunchy already. Doing some hardscaping and getting the crap burned outta me plus my old knees just love kneeling on the ground.
If you need a cane to get in and out of the Camaro are you still one of the cool kids?

Well I hope I'm back for a while.
Has been a rough 3 months. March almost lost me to cloged artery. Came out of that slowley. Next one 10 days ago was closer 90% clogged arteries. They had to put stents in the arteries. Up the right arm across the chest.

Was told I can't do almost anything. This [sucks] I can't sit around doing nothing. Can't work on anything, just bull crap. But I do feel better.

WOW - I was wondering where you've been! Glad to hear that you're feeling better! Follow the doctors orders. Hopefully, you'll be back to normal soon!!!
