Morning-

56 / 48 and clear.  Although enjoyable its very different spending 5 days alone at the cabin when I don't drink.  Ive run out of stuff to do.  Used to be a real vacation cuz no one could tell me to slow down or count the empty's.   Well, that ends today when YS, his wife and mine show up  :)    Dont care that they get shorter by 30 seconds tomorrow... Let the longest day of the year begin!  :bc:

I was going to ask you about that but it sounds like you have a good handle on it...after I quit I found it pretty amazing just how many activities and events involved the sauce....like all of 'em:lmao:

Glad you are having a nice time up north. :ylsuper:

Wow , didn't see that kind of rain here. John do you fish?

Not since I was a young lad. I may take my neighbor up on his offer sometime and go out with him this summer.

Good way to relax. You don't have to catch fish to have a good day of fishing.

Any idea what the lake / pond in IP is like?

My neighbors fish IP quiet often for Walleye. I didn't even know that we had them here in the East. They also fish Echo and Memphremagog for lakes. I can ask them about the brooks that they fish next time they are up if you are interested?

Sure , we always get up to the burg at least once in august. Fish the river below the spa a bit too. There is a boat ramp ( cartop) on the vt side across from the spa . There to the rest area ramp is a nice 6-7 hr float with a run thru the s turn that holds a lot of rainbows. But want to try IP.

Yay summer!!  

Heat index is going up to 107* today 🥴

 

I couldn't deal with temps like that. If I lived in TX I would be inside with the AC going all summer.

x2,  no desire to be south in the summer but no longer have the desire to be north in the winter either.

I just got a blanket to cover my feet as I sit here!  🤣.    It’s 84 out and 69 inside!   Step mom is a freakin tahd with the AC.  One extreme to another 🤦‍♂️

He’s doing ok thanks. This really took the wind out of his sails though.   He will be 80 on 7/1.    

I've been watching how quickly my parents have been changing as they get older.   My parents are doing a 12 day cruise of the baltic sea in September and to hear them talking about how it might be the last chance is kind of weird but at 73 my fathers health isn't the greatest so it might be

Yeah it’s a tough reality to accept isn’t it.    

No sooner did I get here I got a call my brother is in ICU in Marlboro with a tube down his throat because he was going to die from blood gasses building and shutting down his brain 🤦‍♂️  Copd.

thanks   It’s the second time in 30 days he’s been admitted.  Trying to get him to stop smoking( for years) has been impossible.  Mental illness is not easy for anyone to understand  :sad:
