The old blue and the new blue look fine to me Wook, still gets me that some think its okay to limit other folks expressions, words best served in person come to mind. There's a lot said and done here that I've no use for but I believe others have a right to their own thoughts and actions.
The Watering Hole
6
WELCOME TO THE WATERING HOLE
A stress-free place to gather and share whatever is on your mind! A fun place of mutual respect where you can hang your hat, vent, relax and shoot the bull for a while!
Happy Easter to all who celebrate that faith.
To all others, Happy Spring!
Easter symbolizes a new beginning, so it is fitting that TWH has a new beginning as well!
Along with RFC, TWH has been remodeled!
Actually, it can be anything you imagine it to be!
I am happy to announce that due to the increased bandwidth of the new RFC, there is no longer a need for the weekly closing and re-opening of TWH!!! After 10+ years of weekly "flipping" we now get to keep the doors open continuously! My sincere thanks to our moderators, especially Sophia, for making this possible!
I would also like to thank all the members who have kept this boat afloat for so long! We have become like family here, and now have a permanent residence!
While we have many long-time members who have been enjoying the company found in this amazing virtual bar, we also welcome all new folks. Jump right in! The first drink is always on the house and Veterans always have an open bar!Al The Infidel (Tubby Slayer extraordinaire) is the bar manager.
So, let's get this re-opening celebration going! Set 'em up, Al! Drinks all around!!!

Thanks, Brent!! You saved me some green there. Now, I just have to remember to re-up in November before this current on runs out.
We’ve had about thirty inches of snow since the announcement of Spring now, stop!
Yesterdays Easter ham was a hit cooked in the Dutch oven. Of course everything is good cooked in my 120+ year old cast iron. I found it setting atop a fence post and drug it home fifty years ago while helping dad track a buck he hit.
It warmed up to around 45° yesterday and had the pups out in the sun for a little play time. Son and I worked off our meal with 10-15 miles of biking. It was nice to get out. He tried one of the local trails with my Gary Fisher Fat Possum until the trail ended with downed trees. I’ll be walking sections of trail this week with the saw cleaning up downed trees and limbs from recent ice/wind storms preparing for real Spring this week. Volunteered son and my help with the local trail network group to help out. Pretty much three people are taking care of the hundreds of miles of backwoods single track while thousands enjoy them. Plans in place to have connectors for the entire trail system in next few years are being authorized by the DNR. We will have world class trails and become a destination place for mountain bike riders.

Didn’t we used to get a notice when the membership was about to expire? At least I think I did and that was when I re-uped.Thanks, Brent!! You saved me some green there. Now, I just have to remember to re-up in November before this current on runs out.
Mo better.
That is an interesting bit of history Al! I can't imagine you being a thorn in anyone's side....your star just shone too brightly for her, it's the only explanation

I 'm on the dark side and can see you again wook.
Now Easter Sunday was a right good day, today is lookin' pretty rainy...
Shopping today for milk and leftover Easter candy
Went down to the river. Pix were taken, planes and goosies being the most predominant.
No eagles but we saw our first osprey of the season. That makes two different parks now we've been lucky enough to see 'em.
Ordered another camera... It's been a year or so since the last one
Used, excellent condition, Nikon D810. Got it for 1/3 the cost of a new camera...
Thankfully I've got lenses & other stuff.

Perzackly and my 2¢ from the lighter side.
Who is she named Dyngus?
I posted some almost headless bunny pix demonstrating what a 17HMR V-Max round does to em, everywhere that she had to delete. Guilty as charged. It really set her off. 😳That is an interesting bit of history Al! I can't imagine you being a thorn in anyone's side....your star just shone too brightly for her, it's the only explanation

E-4 Mafia never get lost Frank. We just leave a breadcrumb trail of empty beer cans and tequila bottles for quick egress back to the barracks 😎
