Fine. Be that way. Keep it all for yourself.
I'll just hunker down here a bit south (southwest???) of you and look at the uncovered ground that's had next to no snow cover this season (again).
Really dreading Wildfire Season with so little snow/rain

Fuck this shit!

"A vintage feel" is that like getting felt up by an old guy?

Or a young guy with a sense of nostalgia???

I love this candy from Hawaii called Mele Macs. They're macadamia nuts coated with toffee then chocolate then rolled in powdered sugar!

Love macadamia nuts, but you can keep the rest... my teeth hurt just thinking about it. (more for you)

What is this gorgeous creature?

giant leopard moth (Hypercompe scribonia)
not to be mistaken for a Lantern Moth aka Spotted Lanternfly

I'd stay away!

That was Plan A... but @Boat1 followed a different plan. Unauthorized, no less!

A quick screenshot of the
Scarlet Bodied Wasp Moth like I was seeing in Galveston....

Argh!! That's mean!!
also - never do I ever want to come across one IRL

I hate that, too! I usually travel with my pillow but decided to leave it at home this trip. Very BAD decision!

How do y'all have room to pack pillows when you travel???

It is a lot if work and money.... we have a mayor's court and if people can't pay Their fines we do in kind so if you owe $150 we pay you $15 an hour and you work 10 hours for The Village. So if you have any really good skills we use you to do carpentry or whatever. When it comes time to paint people will be painting if you're an electrician we have you do electrical work if you're a plumber we have you fix a toilet. Whatever. These little villages have to be very creative

This is a marvelous way to assess fines! It allows people to take care of what they owe without garnishing their wages.

Let me fix this for you...

There's quite a gap between strong and stubborn, I think. I will admit to being both, however, I don't believe I've ever been unreasonably stubborn. I am strong willed and need a man both strong enough and flexible enough to temper.

All good - mine was a teasing post.
Mind you, I have no intention of coming across one of those suckers if I can help it... but was all in good fun as I know yours was as well.
Sometimes humor and sarcasm don't come across fully or properly in a written medium.

On that cheery note, I'm turning in for the night lest I turn into a pumpkin!!

No worries at all, as I thought you were being lighthearted and playful, but I honestly wouldn't post anything that spooks you intentionally.

How would she have encountered that? I was thinking meningitis.

She has children in daycare and the virus was going around.

What is strong? Intellectually, emotionally or physically? All of the above?

Man - they sure don’t make em like they did in those days.

Truly the greatest generation!

I suspect that the generations that came before were likewise great.


I suspect that Something Happened between then and Gen Z.


And it was something that shouldn't have happened . . . .

I got am egg straight from the chicken and fried up this am for a egg sandwich...it was delicious but tomorrow I am gonna fancy it up with sourdough bread and mayo/ mustard dressing i make for egg salad... and maybe a pc of cheese

I forgot how good egg sandwiches tasted

Wat does not make Egg Sammidges to die for, but he makes ones worth killing for.

I had a dream last night that I got fired from my job and I was in this big convention center looking for something and there were all these biker gangs roaming around looking for where there brother bikers were at.....

Yes I know...I had chic o sticks before bed

Didja meet any bikers?

The old Woolworths on Main Street in Somerville, New Jersey was a great place. I have fond memories of it as a kid. it had one of those lunch counters, and that unstable Woolworths smell. (can’t describe it, but it smelled like an old school hardware store - not a bad smell at all)

But then it turned into this gigantic antique Emporium, which was also pretty great. It had a sign just like this in it!

Patrick's Hardware in Hampton VA is still in the same building since Christ was a corporal. Been in business since 1892 or something like that. It has That Hardware Store Smell that I knew and loved from childhood.


It smells like Progress. Fixing Shit. Making Stuff Gooder. Gooderer.
