Very cool Colonel. That's not the place in Bracken County, KY, near Germantown? They featured that on one of those cable shows - Treehouse Masters I think -- Its very close to where my parents grew up, and I always wanted to stay there...

No, this one is in Ohio. A couple of months when I was looking around for a place and I Googled 'treehouse rental Ohio' , or something like that, I was surprised at how many came up. Guess it's kind of thing.

One of my boys sent me some pictures the other day of when they were building Buford Dam outside Atlanta that led to Lake Lanier. Been in front of that dam many times back when I lived outside Atlanta and we would take the boat up there. I had never seen them and thought they may be of interest to some of you .... especially @wildcatdonf and @Sawnee Cat.

A little warm and humid on the porch this morning. Storms rolling in so it might be a wet morning/afternoon.
The Mrs and her daughter and the kids are heading out later this morning for a long weekend at a small resort in east/central Ohio. Place has treehouses you stay in (may just be cabins on poles like you see in the Smokies), but they'll have fun. Not too far at all from the 'amish country' here in Ohio so I'm sure the Mrs will want to go to a couple little towns and shop. Already told her that if they do....to stop off at my favorite all-time restaurant with the best/largest donuts I've ever had...take a cooler and bring a few home.

Me? I'll enjoy the peace and quiet. Nothing else on the docket.

Y'all have a good day. Matthew has stayed where they're going......

As I've gotten older, I've come to appreciate the simpler things more, like peace and quiet.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 77°F and clear. 82% humidity. Slight possibility for showers late day. Expecting 97°F for today's high.

We hired a crew to pressure wash and paint our house. Also need an outside panel replaced. Washing complete. Painting should commence shortly.

Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Never thought of that (likes to all above post). I miss a few days and I am reading and liking at Commander Data's speed. I will have to use that one sometimes.

It's a hot one today, to hot for a UPS driver to get out of his truck and make a delivery. Jan saw him turn around in our parking lot. The back door to our building was wide open and you can see it from the driveway. There were 2 cars parked by our front door. Jan was sitting where she could see out the front door and watched him drive away. UPS says he tried to deliver and we were closed. She's spent a lot of time on the phone with their automated service and occasionally a person who spoke English poorly, basically a big runaround with UPS saying the package is 25 miles away and we can go pick it up.

I should have made a career of being a UPS driver. I’m omitting the rest of my response

Haha. Can’t top that. But today our UPS driver apparently pulled up during a torrential downpour (I came in just before it started) dropped off a cardboard package on the front stoop and didn’t bother to ring the bell. By the time I found the package the cardboard was about as stiff as oatmeal. Luckily the contents weren’t something that water would damage.

Chief, if I didn’t know better I’d think you’ve been brainwashed by CatinIL. Those illegal aliens from another galaxy just want to enjoy the American dream —not abduct us and take our stuff.

Always watched Jaws the week before our family rented a beach house in Delaware for ten days to get in the mood. We did that every summer from the year our first was born til they were both away from home.

I also enjoyed the book. A little different. A little darker. Spoiler alert…in the book the Richard Dreyfus character has an affair with the chief’s wife, then gets eaten by the shark in the end…

Which end got eaten? That can make all the difference
