Troy being married to the same women going on 46 years next month and living with her for over 50, shouldn’t I be the anointed saint? She says no! She’s the saint, no humbleness there.Well howdy there internet people and those who rescue lost computer techs

TomO your wife is due to be sainted.
My own wife needs a vacation, and I keep thinking of Wisconsin from all the pics you're post. When I was little, we used to visit extended family in Waukesha WI, and go to whatever the deer park place was. I remember being amazed that every time we visited, someone would put a wired wraparound-the-bumper advertising thingie (nonsticky bumper sticker in today's parlance) around Dad's back bumper to advertise the Deer Park or whatever it is/was.
She's in a cycle where we can't get a solid week to make the drive past Chicago to get up there, but it's on the list for later. I've got an author friend that writes a mystery series set on the Mailboat on Lake Geneva, and it would be fun to coordinate trips with her and finally get to meet in person.
In other news, we have gutters! We were the last unit finished yesterday. No Amish crews on this part. In fact, haven't seen the Amish woodpeckers all week. Looks like they're on another project until the gutters get done. So, I don't have to move my patio furniture and grills just yet. But, rain is in the forecast, so who knows?

And, finally, my plantar fasciitis is on the mend. Been doing my stretches, my tennis ball massaging, and wearing the Birkenstocks. So, of course, bursitis in my left elbow is acting up.
hurts to rest my arm on the arm of the patio chair so I can type. 3D printing to the rescue... and I didn't even have to print anything.

That's the foam insert that wraps around a bottle of liquid resin for the 3D printer. I cut a 2-inch section out of it to raise my toes when I do my stair stretch for my foot. So, I trimmed off the sharp corners, and drop it over the metal arm. Then I let my elbow hang off the foam, leaving support for my forearm.
Today shall be plotting out the new mystery. I know who the victim and perps are. An architect stabbed with his own pencil! (stylus since he works on a tablet). Now to figure out all of the connections to the red herrings, and how to frame a merman for it.
That's where we camped on our annual trips to Glacier Park, back in the early 70's. On the west edge of town, was a campground right next to the highwayBest steak I ever had was at a small place in Cutbank Montana.

Deer Forest! That was the place - and it was in Michigan. Sorry... got the lake sides messed upTroy being married to the same women going on 46 years next month and living with her for over 50, shouldn’t I be the anointed saint? She says no! She’s the saint, no humbleness there.
Waukesha. Nice city but very right wing as is the county it’s in. Nice old downtown that we had a couple outdoor lunches at in Summer of 2021. It’s very close to where GregMmr lives and who I miss on the forum as he recovers from his fall a few weeks ago.
I am not from the area but I don’t recall those bumper stickers. I know in the Wisconsin Dells at the Tommy Bartlett ski shows (closed forever) everyone came out of that parking lot with those type of stickers
enjoy the silence of the missing workers till they return to the other side
Karl, if I may suggest, a roll cage, helmet, four wheel disk brakes and a really good set of tires.Good morning gang!
The circus comes to town today. Chevrolet is bringing a new Z06 Corvette and all the hoopla and display paraphernalia that comes with it to the dealership today. I am going to try my best to stay in the back away from all this today. GM's corporate clowns annoy me to no end. I'd rather them build real quality cars for the masses and stop building limited production headaches. If Toyota can do it, so can GM.
BTW, I am getting another S10 tonight. Very straight 2003 2wd extended cab. The 4 cylinder runs great, but will be sporting a V8 soon enough, and will be my "toy".

Oh no! I gotta disagree with you Louis! Royal Farms Stores and Roy Rogers are much better! Last time I had KFC it wasn't chicken, it was Squab! Must be how Baltimore controls its pigeon population!Jaz, I'm with you! KFC is the best chicken money can buy! If you are ever in Baltimore, stop by. My wife's fried chicken is even better. Everything my wife makes is better!

Ken, I hope your back feels better. Heat is my best medicine.
You probably already know but ill say it anyway. Be careful of NSAIDS, they can wreak havoc on the digestive system and they can harm your kidneys.
Maybe should add training wheels too?You forgot the wheelie bars!
