hope it only gets dryer for you now!
We had our basement flood once when a pipe froze, but fortunately we were home at the time and it was clean water so we only needed to dry things out rather than throw things out.

it´s been rainy the last few days...but weather has been improving today....sun peeked out a few times and it was really, really warm then....tomorrow the sun is going to shine a bit longer...and rain isn´t forcasted...at least not much.

we are bbq-ing tomorrow with my father, my bro´s fam and my dad´s best friend....for my dad´s birthday...it was on April 11th...but he wasn´t there then....so now we are bbqing some steaks, bratwurst and will have potatoe salad and some nice drinks.

I have to agree with you, it is so nice to have that service in your room. Used to be a person had to go down to the lobby and use the communal computer.(yuck!) Much nicer this way!

Good morning everyone!

Cloudy and overcast here, but is supposed to clear up. Today is the sod breaking of my friends future habitat house. I'll post pictures later.

weather was cloudy and a bit foggy in the morning....but now it cleared up and is very sunny and warm....65,1 in the shadowy places...very nice.

Thanks for the welcome Binger!

I also have been a Christmas site junkie for many years - there's a few out there. cheesy The one I've been on has kinda stalled though, so it's great to be in such a big group.

Getting cooler every day.

I think you might possibly be the only one who has never had a bratwurst on the grill! Ha ha!! You really do need to try! Mmmm, mmmm! We have a local market here that makes Green Onion Bratts - oh my are they good! Haven't had one since last grilling season, but I have 2 packs in the freezer...I know what I'm having this weekend!!!

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!!!!

 

[Bradmac]

Good Friday morning, everyone! Another beautiful day on the way here!

We went to my son's Little League game yesterday. We won 14 - 1. We haven't lost a game yet, and many of them have had that large of a spread, but I feel bad for the kids on the other team when it's that bad.

Well, the last two seasons for us were losing seasons, so maybe we earned this one.

I hope you all have a great Friday!
