The sun did not shine. It was too wet to play. So we sat in the house. All that cold, cold, wet day.

Life is a mixture of light and shadow, calm and storm, and it's all good.
Susan W. Krebs
According to a local campground owner:
It's not a hurricane if Jim Cantore isn't here.

I'm on a Raymond Chandler kick.
He sounded like a man who had slept well and didn't owe too much money.

Loading up on the local French bread. I freeze it, and thaw as needed. Yes, its that good.
God gives us the ingredients for our daily bread, but he expects us to do the baking !

After a thirteen year affair, I traded my first Corvette (Big Bird) for a newer model, a 2016 Corvette Racing Yellow ZO6 called Big Bird II. This, explains today's quote.
To say goodbye is to die a little.

Its the end of regular season baseball. We now start the playoffs. This year, the Yankees are out and playing golf. To Karen's delight, the Phillies play for a wild card slot.
A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.

Got the "new" Corvette. Three separate manuals. None of them are written for (non engineer) "people".
Always be wary of any helpful item that weighs less than its operating manual.
