D-League

Good morning from ATX. Currently 70°F and cloudy. Today's high may reach 80°F before a cold front moves in.

Must order some bourbon for my former brother in-law. Plan on ordering from Total Wine and pick-up tomorrow.

Happy Friday, y'all.

Yeah,

It seems a lot of work and IF you have good people assisting, maybe but that is a BIG maybe these days.

I really only wanted it to be able to park a boat to be able to fish. (I know, I know but that was my thought process.) The home is only two years old so any major issues should be okay for a while...

I see so MANY boats just parked all the time, or in storage....

It would take a natural act (Disaster) to keep me off the water if I had a boat...

I hear a lot talking about paying for the gas. (I'd bring some oars... ;)) (Or get me one of those "Solar" outboard motors....) 😁

The place I was looking at was about 700 or 800 feet from the water. (Maybe a 1000.) A couple streets over. Had a nice lot too.

I was looking at property in Doe Valley just so I could fish the private lake. So I understand your thinking..........

I started flying racing homers again and it takes a lot of time. Especially when fishing season is in.........spring and fall..........I am not really a boater so when I do go fishing I put in and head somewhere and start fishing......I go to Taylorsville Lake put in most of the time......I go right of the state ramp and start fishing.....I fish all the way around to the dam.......I catch my share most of the time.........I wouldn't give .05 to just run up and down the lake.......I don't even like to troll..........the gas is what it is.....I have a 75 HP Mercury four stroke ........so I use regular unleaded gas......I don't know how much the boat uses per trip or???????? it doesn't use much for sure.....it holds 23 gallons but it took me four years to run 1/2 tank out of it.......I got a bunch of new lures yesterday!!!!!!! I am hopeful that between training my racing homers and gardening I can get out to try them.......I have been wanting one of these 8'' trout lures for a while now........

Good morning folks. Thank goodness Friday is here.

Busy day buy should be a nice weekend. I saw an absolutely breathtaking sunrise on my walk this morning. Colors I couldn't begin to name. The world can be so awe-inspiring. And I noted the flowering trees are already starting to blossom a bit. We live in an area where we are surrounded by every type of apple, cherry, magnolia and other assorted blossom so I love the time of year just ahead.

Dinner this weekend with my wife and daughter. Hope it is a good one for all.

What a day, what a day....Been nursing a couple Yuengling's....(Actually one, going for another now...) Think I'll watch a John Wayne movie or at least part of one....

I will sing Rocky Top tomorrow if the Cats beat the Vols...what the heck is a Vol? I know what a Volunteer is but darn, that sounds Dainty....

May even sing a short part and post it here... ;) NOW, that's an incentive..... (Hope my Mic works....) 😅 (Only had ONE 12 ounce Yuengling Lager... Now I will drink another one for sure!!!

Edit: Oh HECK........................................ I just checked, there is a Karaoke version to sing with...On Dang, Oh Dang, Oh dang......

Good morning folks.

Out on my Saturday hike in a light, cold rain. The surge toward spring is stalled for at least a day in the east.

Big chance for the Cats today. Hard to believe the regular season ends today. I’ve really enjoyed it. Great seeing this young team develop.

Hope you all have a good Saturday.

Huge game today. Win and guarantee a Thursday bye and at least a 4-seed in the NCAA (maybe 3 seed). Lose and the Cats will need some help on the bye and probably get a 5 or 6 seed in the NCAA. Hey they beat the Vols twice last year. Underdogs in both games. This team can beat any team in the country.

Hope the Cats win today...would be huge for the team, saw some sad stats today though. Before Barnes became coach, Tenn was 4-35 at Rupp Arena. Barnes after the win this year is 4-5 at Rupp.

Barnes Tenn teams are 5-3 at Thompson-Bowling Arena against UK. And 2-1 against us in the SEC tournament. So he is 11-9 against UK since coming here. From 1993 to 2015 the Vols only won 9 games against Kentucky.

I love cast netting. When we lived in SC a couple piers I was allowed to fish at night had shrimp swimming a lot.

It was fun catching a couple hundred at a time. The very small ones My Darling made a shrimp sauce that was out of this world good eating.

We lived about 22 or so miles from the ocean and when able we were there three times a week most weeks just trying new ways to eat. It was enjoyable.

The fish and crab are better here but we are at best 63 miles away....

Feels like our whole team has two fouls and Grant Hill was wanting more called late in the half...one of the other announcers first play of the game, a Tennessee player trips and falls and he says something like "Kentucky is playing physical early on"...he fell down dipsh-t

UT shot 13 FTs to UKs 2. 5 guys with 2 fouls. Should have plenty of fresh legs for the 2nd half.

Yes!! Little sister dropped in during the semi-meltdown in last few minutes. God, talk about bad timing. This team is special. Man, what a game. Double bye, good seed. Biggest win in years! I think Cal figured out his rotation.

I seriously hope Cal can just stay out of this team's way enough to let them play. Got some killers on this squad!

Most people don't seem to care, but back when Adolph Rupp and UK got in trouble with NCAA, UT was the only school to stand up for UK and Rupp never forgot that. He was going to defy the NCAA and play a schedule despite them. All the SEC schools had privately told Rupp they would play, but the NCAA put pressure on the SEC and forced a vote. The only school who lived up to their word and voted pro UK was UT. After that any time he could, Rupp helped UT. Even though it has been many years ago, I try and remember how Adolph felt about them.
