The Summer House Hang Out for June 3-9

Summer is here, so here is the menu:
++++ Sweet Ice Tea
++++ Unsweetened Ice Tea
++++ Four flavours of cool aid
++++ Assorted fruit juices
++++ Several flavours of Ice Cream in the freezer

AC is on, pictures of skiing in Austria is on the 82" LED TV right above the sleeping giant.

Now, get your fannies out of bed and come and get it.

Bob

Mornin' Bob, and all youse lazy type folks.
Welcome to Sunday.

Last day of my Vacation, slept in until 6:30.
All chores completed yesterday.
Hope to get the SeaDoo on the water today for the first time if the weather warms up.
Spotty T-Storms in the forecast for later this afternoon.

Reminants of yesterday's "coffee" sandblasted out of the pot, 'fresh' coffee brewin.

Yeah, but I'm sitting 20 ft away from my tv, and it's almost too close.

Afternoon all. Just about ready to head to Calgary for the 4H Steer Auction. We are buying 4 steer this year. We have gotten many of our friends and family hooked on real beef. The difference between this stuff and grocery store beef is truly stunning as long as you don't mind the fact that your beef is a little darker color than you are used to since there is none of the red dye in the meat that the grocery stoes use.

BTW - the septic pump out is working very well.

I just re-read this post and realized one thing isn't clear. Only 1 steer is for us, we are buying the other 3 for the aforementioned friends and family.

Hi there Bob, that looks goooood, I´ll just get a little of everything, and then run out before that 80" thing shows a tennismatch

I still got my 28", the old heavy style, these things are so good, when my mom had her break she bought a new flat one, but even though they said on the phone that they would take it away when they delivered the new, they didn´t.
That wimpy guy just looked at it, " I´m not alloved to lift such heavy things" he said.
The worst part of it all.... he wasn´t even making it up, we do have rules for that, we have rules for that too....

getting rid of the kids on Wednesday for a month
How... do you do that...

Yeah, me too. I might even be farther than that, lemme measure it just for the fun of it...


Yep, 18" from it and I can see it just fine!

I think you're trying to steer us in the wrong direction. Why? What's your beef with us? What'd we do to you? I think you need to hoof it over to your keyboard and write a mooooving apology! AND DON'T MILK IT!

Oh my goodness -- - that is almost as bad as shrews and LEGGS. ....

Stopped by the Mexicali restaurant on the way home to warm things up - - been a while. Good company with a pretty blonde. I've seen her around before - - think I will get to know her better - - pretty nice. ....

Grabbing some ice tea and out of here heading for the lanai and pool. See ya,

Bob
