We decided to say good night to another wonderful Easter by watching the sunset over the Gulf. The breeze was perfect and so was the day.

It was nice going to church and back home and seeing all of the closed stores. Traffic was light and there were empty parking lots. This only happens a few times a year.
I sure want to thank you for sharing this video. It is exactly how I was raised and a time that will never be again. They have taken away several things mentioned in that song from us and you can get in a lot of trouble even singing the song that was the favorite of Abe Lincoln. But I can still hear the lonesome cry of the whippoorwill and that is important because in some areas even the whippoorwill is long gone.

Thanks again, much appreciated.
Bert, this picture was taken in Jacksonville on the St. Johns River. With an I phone. I love the colors. I found the photo on a Florida Cloud Appreciation web site.My last house in Jacksonville was in Hidden Hills just off the St. Johns river. We had whippoorwill's all over the place. My property back up to a swamp and it was apparently whippoorwill country.
I saw this old picture and I immediately thought about being a teenager when cars were the most important thing in a boys life and most of us knew how to break down on old flat head V8 and put her back together again. This was a common sight in those days. We had a favorite old live oak tree that had limbs of steel that would probably hold up a tank. Gettin' her done.

TTH.Hey D league! Been a great day so far. Was out in the workshop to put together the little cedar box for the dryer vent. Got that put together with glue and then applied a coat of spar urethane. For the next two or so hours I literally sat and watched paint dry. Not as cool as watching grass grow, but give me enough beer and classic rock and I can accomplish superhuman levels of passing time with no end goal in mind.
I'm in the house now and all I can tell you is that there is a difference in beer stored at 34° and beer stored at 28°. The workshop beer is just better. Sitting on the couch in my nest though, far outpaces the stool I sit on in the workshop. Let's call it even.
I like beer. It makes me a jolly ole fellow!
They have made it impossible. You have to plug it in to find out what is wrong. Years ago you could tell by the sound of the engine.Today's cars, beyond the basics, tend to be a lot more difficult to work on, with all their electronic, computerized gadgets.

I think that the rule has been changed.I have a question for the golfers on, I used to play but 2 rotor cuff,2 screws in my neck and 2 new hips stopped me from playing, but in the Masters I saw Adam Scott putt with the flag in the cup, I thought the flag had to be pulled once you started putting?
Ok thanks, I don't remember but I think he was the only one, but you have to be right or it would have stopped.I think that the rule has been changed.
Where I grew up the town shut down at 1200 on Wednesday. Was open until 1400 on Saturday though, and then closed until 0900 Monday morning. Not a 24 hour store within 30 miles.
Somehow, we survived.

That's what I'm talking about. An all-American meal served with hush puppies. And down here we add swamp cabbage to make it a meal. Looking mighty good A+
