Day late to the party. I'll have to put on a fresh pot of coffee. I was on OT yesterday, my partner was kind enough to bring me a blueberry muffin. Left work this morning and met the family at Church. Came home and the Wife made me a few sausage egg and cheese muffins. Really starting to cool off here in North Central Massachusetts. Coal Boiler plans remain on the back burner, fortunately fuel oil is cheap enough for the time being. Gonna clean out the Chubby upstairs and inspect the stove pipe for rot etc. I'll be getting a ton of nut coal from C&T Coal in Baldwinville pretty soon. He sells Sherman Coal, I've had excellent luck with it. Wife is preparing a nice Sunday dinner, spiral ham, broccoli, carrots, and au gratin potatoes. Living the high life! Enjoy the day! God Bless!

Man,I Mistakenly Thought Things Slow Down When You Retire! Baloney,And Thank God They Don't!!
Greetings on a cool,rainy night back Home in the N.E. Ohio! Blew out of The Bay Friday(literally,as we had a gale blow in last week) and have been with The Bride since Friday! Nice Times with my LSB(long suffering Bride)!! I'll be breaking Camp by the 31st this year. A little earlier than normal,but to have had a Wuhan Shortened Season was better than no Season at all! Zero Complaints here means We've done well with what We've got,and "Keyboard Season" with You Animals is about to Belch into Full Bloom!! Down Da' Road,I'll be asking if anyone has any experience with a Transaxle Tear Down and Rebuild from a 2000 Club Car Golf Cart I just picked up. Quite an impressive little final drive system,but it had a Lil' Ol' Growl starting,so that means Lumpy Da' Retired Guy gets to play with that over the Winter! I'll start a thread on it in the appropriate section of Da' Board! Probably expensive parts,but well worth it!! Past all that,so far,so good on my and my Family's Health Front! I do believe We'll hit into the Winter at Full Steam! Take Care,Gang! Hopefully my Slacker Butt can arrive here in a more timely manner next Saturday!! Stay The Course,Everyone!!

A late post here. A group of us old Ford truck guys try and meet once a year. This year we were at Bald Eagle state park. We had 10 trucks and did some driving around the countryside. Here’s some pictures. Can you believe some people never ate scrapple or Teaberry ice cream? 2 trucks were driven from Wisconsin and 1 from Missouri.
