It's a shame that the true America loving athletes get/got caught up in all this crap. Train and work all your life...love your country....perhaps dream as a kid growing up of winning gold and wrapping yourself in an American flag as you celebrate....to have it overshadowed by these morons...and nobody/few of your fellow citizens watching because of the actions of idiots.Love it when amateur Americans, like Will Shaner, win gold for the USA. NBA and USWNT can kiss my you know what.
Think I'll have one of those here in a few...without the 'milk' and without the 'shake'.Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F in North Austin. Today's high expected at 99°F.
I'll admit I'm keeping up with the Olympics. Perhaps not watching, but keeping up. Love it when amateur Americans, like Will Shaner, win gold for the USA. NBA and USWNT can kiss my you know what.
Monday, Monday....
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.
Thank you for the spectacular photos of your trip. Beautiful does not adequately describe them. We visited Alaska in May of 2015 and would love to return.I've got more images from our trip but I think you folks get the idea. GNP is a GREAT park. Now that we've been there we will definitely go back. We did get to see a Momma grizzly with two of her cubs. The cubs were chasing each other in a tree and momma bear was trying to keep them in line!

We toured the caves under the falls 6 ft from the water at one point. Don't know if those are still openThe maid of the mist takes you as close to the falls as you would sensibly want to be. i always tell anyone who’s thinking about going you have to ride the mm.
Good Monday morning
The temperature is 71° at the present and our high should reach 89° by midafternoon. We will have plenty of sunshine and a rain chance of 15%. Typical summer day.
After church yesterday we took in the beach and enjoyed a nice Sunday sunset. I noticed 11 California tags (car)s on our roads yesterday which is highly unusual. It is a long way for them to drive to the beach but I doubt they came down for vacation. Chances are they are scouting out a place to relocate.
I see where Disney personnel in California recently demanded a transfer to Florida. These are 2,000 professional employees, not the girls running the bumper cars. Apparently Disney is building another planned city for them on their Disney property near Orlando. They are welcome if they do not vote the way they did in California.
The rumor is Disney will someday pull out of California altogether and relocate with a new park in Texas. That makes sense but Disney was one of the prime reasons California became an undesirable place to live. There is a lesson to be learned,
Have a great Monday. I read Hosea Chapter 8. A nation gone astray will reap the whirlwind

What did you do? On the political board?Hope y'all have a great day and week! I'll be banned here shortly. No idea how long. Make the best of it!
I have never understood the banning process. Especially the Political Board. Politics will breed controversy and differences. It is expected. About the only reason to ban someone is if they are vulgar in their language. And I know you are not that type of a person.Hope y'all have a great day and week! I'll be banned here shortly. No idea how long. Make the best of it!
FaceBook gave me a permanent ban because I brought up the point that theWhat did you do? On the political board?
Maybe they will overlook it!
I should be so lucky Awf. When my wife gets bored she shops. I'd be better off if she canned enough green beans to destabilize Green Giant and Libby's stock value...Well.....it seems once again I have spoken out of turn as they say................we were on the deck when the Director announced we was going to can more green beans.......so we picked almost two 5 gal buckets full........probably enough for three runs in the pressure cooker......(21 quarts)........I thought we had enough green beans in the pantry for the next ten years.......teaches me for talking out of turn......

But liberals love to squash freedom of speech and it seems most of the moderators are liberal leaning. It is what is it.. If I ever get banned I will call Bert so he can get out the word.
Okay folks, my in-"accu" weather is wrong. It is now 93.7°F on my back porch. So much for 90°. It may beat 93.7.Morning folks. It is a warm 77.5°F on my back porch and on its way 90°. Very little chance of rain and we could use some. I got the yard mowed yesterday afternoon when the thunderclouds moved in and cooled things down. It never rained so I got the front and back done.
You all have a good day.
Good afternoon D, Bert We have 95 right now with the heat index at 102, so I am doing nothing and I really think I am doing a good job at it!!!!!

I didn't bother listening to the Love Gov but I figured that he probably wants to go back to MASK ON. I guess he likes being a one term Gov.Forced myself to listen to our guvnah this afternoon. I'm really afraid we might be heading towards another lockdown and mask mandate. If that happens I might wind up in jail for non-compliance.
CatinIl: I live in Montgomery County, about 30 miles due south of Frederick. If you were commuting from Frederick you passed by my stomping grounds on your way.MdW...what area do you live in the DC area? Just curious. I spent 9 plus years in that area...working in DC and living in Frederick, MD. I HATED DC but I did love Frederick, MD and especially western MD.
Anyway, hopefully you'll escape that mess in the near future...unless you like it.
By God that rat bastard better be a one-termer. We still have nearly 2 1/2 years to put up with this boy scout.I didn't bother listening to the Love Gov but I figured that he probably wants to go back to MASK ON. I guess he likes being a one term Gov.
Yep, I rolled right by that area EVERY MORNING. When I moved to the DC the first time it was the Quince Orchard Cluster APTs. there in MD just outside of DC. Then the second time was Frederick/New Market , MD. Much better. The one thing I miss about living in that area was bike riding through the National Battlefield parks...CatinIl: I live in Montgomery County, about 30 miles due south of Frederick.

I’m walking distance from the subway but still in an area that isn’t overly developed - single family homes on decent sized lots.
I like here it fine. I’m a history buff and never get tired of exploring that aspect of the region, love the Smithsonian Museums, and spend lots of weekends hiking in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. There are things that aren’t perfect, of course, but I can roll with all that.
