Welcome to the meet & greet coffee. Some of us will be lucky enough to have real life interactions with the group today. Have fun!
For now... cyber coffee is hot & scrambled eggs, ham & home made toast is about to hit the table. Join in!

Another darn beautiful week here in Maine. This summer isn't over yet! It is some cooler.... I haven't used the Ac as much, but every day has been quite warm & just sooooo nice. Love it!

This Tuesday is the highest tide of the year. My buddy John & I are going to take the Seadoo & see just how far we can make it up river. A little risk, but it shouldn't approach dangerous. If we get stuck somehow, we just wait for low tide and walk to shore. ;)

Maybe later we'll read of some stories of today's meet & greet. Wish I were there!

Enjoy this wonderful day!

Good Morning,Gang !

There may be a Few Fine Folks having a Real-Life Reaction after having experience a Real- Life Interaction with this Scoundrel ! toothy Property Values have declined significantly since my arrival yesterday. Folks can't find a Moving Van to rent upon word of my arrival. These things happen,and I'm semi-flattered. Poor Miss Julie,my onboard Mental and Moral Compass,is Peacefully sleeping in while I initiate my assault on the Tamaqua Diner..... Hey,since when is a straight jacket part of a table setting? :fear:

Enjoy the Weekend ! I'm sure that You'll see various and a sundry of updates on the Meet-n-Greet thread. Most likely I'll be viewed this morning as a Human Appetite Suppressent but what the Hell,You only get one first chance to never be invited back to NEPA ever again !!! :jawdrop:

Love that coffee Freddie!!! Can't partake of anything else though. Gotta lose two more pounds to hit my goal weight. It will be the first time in about 20 years I weigh what I'm supposed to weigh!!!!!

Need the coffee today as today is work on my own heating system day. I got 5 rather ornate radiators off Craigs list and I have two of them placed in the dining room. I will cut out the baseboard rads and remove them. Slide the cast iron rads in place and pipe em up. Sounds so easy :roll: I spent a couple of hours last night trying to get an idea of who made em. The closest I came was National Radiator in the UK maybe, possibly, :cry:

Momma isn't feeling well enough to go to the Meet N Greet so we will follow the exploits of those that go on here. Here it is right in our backyard almost and can't make it. Hopefully we can make it next year.

Later all, I gotta hit Marks Supply in Shenandoah when they open at 9 for a radiator spud wrench. I can't find mine. I use it so little that I put it somewhere safe and it's so safe I can't find it. :lol:

Good morning all. Feels strange to be home after all this time I spent in Hopewell. My galley slave is wippin up a late breakfeast of sausage, toast, and fried eggs. hmmmm, Washin it down with my French press coffee loaded with brown sugar and light cream. Good enough for desert. Wife-e is complaining that the butter left out is not soft enough to spread. A chill was in the air last night. Great weather for snuggling....... Ut we have a problem,....she busted the yoke!

Once again,many thanx to Jack(den) and Crew who taught and amazed Us !

LOL! They had to peel me away from Jack to go eat....I would have bent his ear and listened you him for much longer. What a day! The missus is very pleased and that is a bigger victory......success! Special thanks to GAW and his wife for being so personable right from the start.

I didn’t have time for coffee yesterday because we were running around with a bunch of degenerates from some online coal board.

Rev. Larry, did you retire or start a new job? It seems like you’re always busy these days. Best to you and the Mrs. Sorry it didn’t work to come out to yesterday’s gathering.
I have one of those “safe” places too. I can’t wait to find it one of these days, it will be like Christmas when I find all those things I put there.

Dennis; it would have been nice to see you yesterday but I understand the family frowns on skipping out of family events to visit cyber friends at some coal mine museum. They picked a good day to get married my wife and I celebrated our 11th anniversary yesterday. We were married Saturday, September 17, 2005.

Today’s morning agenda is to go to a local fire company breakfast and then go see Sully at the movie theatre. This afternoon depends on the weather.

Well, I hope you had a good anniversary. I know a coal mine tour would have made my day. Dennis
