This directory would be a great asset to have near by. Sometimes when I'm posting a reply I forget if I should use my Arkansas twang, Georga draw, TEXAS big talk, are what ever they talk up younder, that's north of the AR line.

I am honored that you would pause, and ponder at my ponderance that started this here fracus.

So, April, a Curiosity.

Shall we each have a campfire-side ponderance to tell?
Perhaps also a musing?
A bit of prose? Poetry?

Film at eleven?

Well Well Well !!!! Welcome Back Dave !!!!

We have been trying to carry on in true mutant fashion, and we have missed your insights and such, I dont know when you passed exit 289 on I-17 but consider that Marcia and I waved as you went by. Things are looking up.

Cheers !!!

I ended up moving the bulbs around and determined it was the light fixture, not the bulb(s), usually

Great photos!

Hi Don,

So did you replace the fixture, that is something that would be easy to do, but I sure hate to change it if it isnt bad, Ill get a couple of new bulbs to test it. I used to have florescent fixtures in my store and sometimes I would get one that would give me trouble, my brother the electrician, always said I'd be money ahead to buy new fixtures cause you can get them for about $10 or less on sale. Sometimes the throw away life really bugs me.

Cheers !!!

Hey Les,

My wife and I laughed so much looking at your post, we had a cat much like the one that ate the hamster, except he would just bring rabbits in out of the field and leave the remains on the back step, sometimes it was birds or even a mouse gall bladder as well. Our huskie didnt mess with the cat very often, hahahahahaha.

Cheers !!!

The throw away life bugs me too...that's why I fought for Honey when she had her engine troubles right after we got her. She's a little more care needed...but anything vintage deserves a little extra TLC simply because they are still around to bring joy.

We would love to bring the tear, however one of the advantages to being married to a teacher is June July and August, the disadvantage is June July and August, and while I am retired she has a few more years. Quite frankly I dread when she does retire because she doesn't do nothing well.

Being retired and doing nothing is worse thn a job. There are no days off, it's 24/7. The unretired just don't understand. You find yourself in a RV mutating.

Dogpatch OR someone, please tell me how to load more than one pic to a reply. I tried choosing the four spots under manage attachments but only one pic will show up.

I know they love solar lights.

There was one in my back yard that they just filled with red clay.
It looked like one of the "ant farms" they sold years ago.
I think the Queen was a typical boss, and used the light
to make them work 24/7.

You have to pick one picture and upload it then add another picture and then upload it and so on. You will see once you pick your picture, there will be an upload button on the right.
Once you upload your complete post, all the pictures will go with the post upload. Otherwise it will only give you the one.

I use my iPad and use the iPad app for irv2 for loading pictures. It's easy and the pictures don't come out sideways. When I use the standard version of irv2, it's always more difficult with the iPad.

Let me know how you make out.

The art of doing nothing takes practice, training, and of course retraining. The new void of doing nothing is filled with long days of a heavy schedule of "gotta finish this project" and "I don't get a break from all the lists to complete".

I thought retirement was going to be like my little avatar up there. Let me tell you, this old rooster got more rest like that during the "working years".
