Sure. I'm in the "Wordle, Scrabble and Sudoku" crowd. Zero idea of what that pic is. My wife was gone for 11 days on a cruise; the TV in the family room didn't even get turned on during her absence!

On the flip side -- we recently had a forecast of 22"+. I think they were confused, we only got 2-3" out of that 'storm'.

Went to a local restaurant for dinner. The "room" they put us in had its ceiling covered in hub caps. Almost directly above my head was this...

Yep. Somebody needs to give the current one an ear of corn. I've never seen him smile. Cool to have that issue from your birthday.

A friend had his Chevy out at the end of his driveway for sale. Someone came along and bought it the wrong way. A very hard hit for the poor old Chevy. what's interesting to me is how the windshield didn't get hurt at all

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’

This is a sad post. Westminster, MD is my county seat. I've been driving straight through the center of town (takes about 3 minutes) getting to a job. White's Cycle Shop has been at the square corners as long as I can remember. He was a collector and I'd drop in to talk or show him one I got. He always had a yellow Schwinn Twin standing out front. Found out a long time ago, NFS.

Well, that bike won't be sitting out front any longer. Brad White has passed away as of early last Sunday. I checked my local news website for weather and saw the headline. I couldn't believe my eyes. There was a fire in his office and it took his life. It's so sad. It won't be the same driving through town not having that bike shop there

Local radio report:
https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=f1069...LWZpcmUv&ntb=1

White's is second building left of corner

That's sad to hear. Said he was living in the business so one could wonder if an electric space heater was the cause or if he was a smoker maybe. Sprinkler system in apartments above his business but none in his business.

Looking at that I can hear the sounds and feel the ride. Pack three in and lets go. As basic a truck as could be had* and all they needed.

Got a little windy here last night. My grill almost went for a swim. This thing is so heavy and the wheels were locked. It went about 20 feet .

That's took some serious forced air. The gusts came in at greater than the 50 mph forecast. They are now saying we had 55-60 mph gusts

My computer only shows the two in the middle

It was a cold night in Carlisle that night in April. 22* in the morning. Pretty cold for being outside night and day for four days. we had to stay entertained and Hanson here is good for that!
