Nope, I made dinner here at home while she was mowing. Beef wieners
wrapped in a crescent roll and baked, small batch of chili, some Swiss
Chard and beets on the side. We won't discuss dessert. <G>

I truly never expect to live this long, you know the reasons why. Not in
the best of health but still getting around and have all of our get
coming over on Sunday, only day all of them can get off work and duties.
Cake and ice cream and NO presents. I got greetings emails from my
dentist and the owner of the dealership where I bought our latest
vehicle plus an email card from my friend in Louisiana. That's enough
stuff for one day.

My next birthday party will be 25 years from now as the last one was 25
years ago. No point in having a party every year when we have 21
descendants parties to go to every year. Our youngest great
granddaughter was three yesterday.

Add my wishes, too, George. Thirty-nine years old, aren't you?
Happy birthday and many more.

If we're both around in twenty-five years I certainly will invite you.

I'm going in November, here in Texas, haven't hunted deer in over 25
years. Grandson has a free lease with lots of deer. Texas is allowing
two bucks and three does this year or just take five does. Can't eat
antlers so I'm looking for does.

I can remember when Texas allowed only bucks, no does, and any of them
were hard to find in East and SE Texas. I see deer alongside the roads
around here in broad daylight, carcasses also. Lots of buzzards floating
around all the time, you can nearly always tell where a deer was hit by
a vehicle by the circling buzzards. I nearly ran over a coyote the other
day on the street I live on.

You would think that with over 5 million people living in this area
there would be nothing wild left. We deer tracks behind our house nearly
every morning. Alas, no stands here.

Happy Birthday to George!

we only get to say this once every 25 years? hmmm...


picked three very nice huge red peppers today and
ate one of them with homemade sourdough bread, pulled
pork and a splash of mustard.

the green peppers think it is the middle of summer
and are flowering up a storm. all these nice sunny
days and reasonable temperatures.

We're having some pretty nice weather right now, low sixties at night
and early morning, up into the nineties again by mid afternoon.
Harvesting cucumbers today,probably going to make a nice salad with some
store bought lettuce, chard from the garden, scallions, and some tiny
little tomatoes, and, of course, some store bought celery plus whatever
we can find in the herb garden. May even be some rain in sight.

George

Barb was with us in 2007 for a week and she realized she had met an "Old
Goat" right away. I have a tee shirt my grands gave me years ago, the
back says, "Warning, Grumpy Old Goat."
