Men's meeting to start day, then off to Sherman, hit bike shop, got brake cable replaced, new shorts and shoes, lunch at RED Lobster, hit shoe store and book store. Made it home just in time for nap, no ride today.

38 right now...and, according to the weather report, that's where it's going to stay all day. The report calls for a bit of mixed precipitation this morning.
Since my stepdaughter has to work today, we had our Thanksgiving dinner last evening. Ham was the main course along with mashed and scalloped potatoes, salad...and a few drinks of Jameson whiskey. Nice time! As usual, no body ate too too much and we'll be having ham sandwiches for a week.

Happy Thanksgiving, All!

Hope everyone celebrating thanksgiving has a good time, what better day can there be to skip the lettuce.

Traditionally no turkey in this country until Christmas, but that's ok, we have plenty of dry bread left and an abundance of water...


... Or maybe not, this morning's toast is toast - the bread has gone mouldy :laughing:

Good morning and happy Thanksgiving to all.
45 degrees in Markham VA, and my what a windy noisy night it's been, gusts up to 40mph today

Yesterday's drive was ok, easy in the beginning, then hit rain, and lots of traffic, as expected.
4 serious car accidents on way up, one bad rearender I took a pic of, and two nasty ones where cars were on their roofs.
The bad ones thankfully on the South side so just a lot of looky lou slowing down. I went up 234 instead of 17 off rt 95 and it was a nice drive.
New roundabouts installed on 15, apparently they have reduced traffic accidents immediately. Seems many folks don't know right of way rules in a circle, gets to
be a game of chicken sometime. But sure better than getting t-boned at an intersection.

I put the cruise at 6 over and just let the traffic mostly pass me. Got 31mpg on the way up, cruise control seems to add at least 1-2mpg.

I was so exhausted last night was asleep by 8pm. Of course that means up early, feel like a truck ran over me, sore all over.
Now you've got me thinking of all the salad I ate before I left...
first cup of coffee, can't find SIL's sugar bowl, groan, waiting for her to come down and get it for me.
She made a delicious dinner last night of tuna steaks, which
were both too big and not cooked enough for me, but everyone likes minimally cooked tuna so I simply picked around the edges. Today will be a traditional dinner at 2pm, though my eyes are on the two pies on the counter. One made at Red Truck bakery, well known bakery locally and listed in the Good Eats book too. Give me a cup of coffee and a big piece of pie and I'm a happy camper.

Toppop, hope you feel better soon and lose the crud.
David, hope Sophie's medical procedure went well

remember to go easy on the salt today, don't need anyone in the ER tomorrow...

Good morning everyone. Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating!
Currently 38 here with heavy rain. Hopefully it will calm down some as we have family coming around noon.
Safe travels for all and I hope those sick heal quickly.

Happy turkey day all,
temp is 22 and going to a high of 28 °F. Wind N 15 gusting to 30 mph. 30% chance of flurries.
We've got snow on the ground, I just don't know how much. Probably not enough to bother plowing.

We lost hydro while it was snowing. I figure the wires got landed on by a snowflake.

I have a very sick Maine Coon cross. She has denied herself all food, is very weak, to the point where IF she moves at all she staggers. We've blocked off the basement door so she cannot get down there. I will call the vet this morning and make an appointment to put her down. I think, I am not sure but I think she is full of cancer. Both her kidneys are enlarged about twice their normal size, she won't eat and drinks for a long time at the fountain. Both of the Himalayans had cancer and had to be put down. It is heartbreaking but a fact of life that we humans will probably outlive our pets.

I usually celebrate either the Canadian or the American thanksgiving. I hit the Canadian one this year.


Have a safe day all

Brewed a full pot of coffee this morning. 36° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 36° with cloudy skies all day. Son arrived at my place close to 7am. Spent the day reminiscing about all the good times we have had at our place. Had the required lasagna for dinner. Only this year it was Stouffers. Lots of wind, rain, and lighting thou out the day. Lots of branches but no real damage. I can put the Trac-Vac away and get snowblower on the mower. Wind sent all the leaves into woods next door. Thanksgiving will be at a restaurant in town where youngest son lives. Oldest son will be back on the road with his truck this evening.
Had a different bird at feeder yesterday.


Mostly, I have looked into a laser sight for my pistol. Haven't purchased one yet. At local gun shop I was able to check out all the different models. My eyes say a green dot is the best all around especially if it is going to be use in daylight. Now that I have time I need to get over to the shop and get one for my 9mm.

Drew, glad you made the trip safely. Took a long time. But I weened myself off anything in my coffee.

David, hope Sophie's procedure went well.

Kyle, Detroit has a very good Thanksgiving Parade. No sure you cans see it in TX.

Mostly, nice picture.

Buckeye, glad you are off the meds and feeling better. Enjoy your OH trip.

Prayers and best wishes for all.

Good Morning All.
