Greetings,Coalers..!! Yes,Believe It Or Not,This Is Our Last "Coffee Of April" Together...!!
That's right,so let's get in,get seated,and get at it..!! While April Showers Will Bring May Flowers,And Possibly Yet More Below Average Temps,Snow and Monsoonal Rain with,of course,High Winds,I'll ignore all of that...
Seems We could use some Good,News..!! Namely,"Pancakes & Waffles"..
At least that's how Freetown Fred muttered out the "Deal Of Da' Day" as We were " Smokin' & Jokin' " on the back porch this mornin'..
You Know What To Do,Ya' Know What Ya' Want..!! So get on in here,have at it,and share..!!

Holly crap Bob. 4:26 ! Old habits die slowly but it's been a few years. You got to learn how to sleep in a bit. I'm up early cause the dog had to crap but I'll nap in the chair till the better half gets up. Coffee now, breakfast later and on we go.

Just noticed this board must run on standard time.

Sunny day here, but a slow start...I stayed up too late. :roll: A few of the boys came over last night and we had a fire outside and listened to the Bruins game. For the first time in quite a while I don't have to be anywhere before lunchtime. This afternoon I am headed to Massena, but compared to last weekend it will feel like a short drive.

In other news, my neighbor just returned from Willamsport with something big...I bet StokerDon can guess what it is.

You better brush up on your skills now. Might I suggest some Van Halen at 3/4 volume as soothing background music to work by.

I’m thinking more along the lines of classic looney toons on youtube.
