Didn’t go to the lake house. Got all those Christmas decorations front and back packed up and stored. We were going to do that Tuesday but the high is suppose to be a Yankee 37 degrees. High today was 62 and the high tomorrow is supose to be 65. Then the Yankee invasion of cold winds. Then Wifey got sick [throwing up]. We see as time goes by.
Sleep tight.
BTW: 2012 is the 175th Anniversary of Rolesville. January 18th.
It is cloudy and still mild in SE Indiana. Happy New Year! Hope Mrs. Chief gets well soon. Had a nice visit with friends and stayed long enough to watch the ball drop. I hope everyone has a good year!
Had a great time at the inlaws as everyone was there. Had 0 [B], just some wine and champagne. We were the last to leave, after 1:00, and stayed to clean up as they have a hard time doing everything by themselves.
I was the first from the Pot to celebrate the New Year; however, I was working on a school paper when it struck 12 here. Yes, we had an earthquake today; it was about 200 miles from us. It was a good one as the wife and I could feel it when we were having a nap today after church. I’m making dinner now: grilled pork chops, roasted potatoes, and sauerkraut. For some reason, my mom always made pork and sauerkraut on New Year’s Day for good luck. I believe it is a Pennsylvania Dutch (German) tradition.
Dougdagrump - Thanks for the PM.
I hope everyone and their wives feel better and enjoy the day.
Mornin’ boys, and HAPPY NEW YEAR to all. Trying to type with left hand, as Fifepops is holding a hiccupping 2 month old with the right. Little guy kept Wifeyma-ma up most of night, so his parents could go out. She and I celebrated earlier with dinner at Outback.
Big football day today. If our RAVENS win, they could dominate the AFC. Lose today and sticka fork in 'em.
Morning everyone, and happy new year! Joe, thought about you when I heard about the earthquake. We had a quiet night, no one stayed up till midnight, though there were plenty of folks shooting off fireworks and perhaps shotguns? Wife was sitting next to me on the couch this morning and said “I’m hungry, I need breakfast”, to which daughter replied" I need to goto the mall". What’s with that? How early does that shopping gene kick in?
Anyway, hoping to pick up some layout figures and structures to get some of those projects done. Well, we have church a bit later than usual today. No Sunday school, so we will still get done in time for lunch. Got a little present in a sense in that we got a few more photos of the boy we are adopting. The little girl is still at the orphanage and they do not have more photos available. We may get some updates, but they are not expected. It is all a waiting game now.
May you each be blessed in the week and year ahead.

I don’t care who you are, that’s funny…[(-D]
Happy New Year All!
It is a beautiful, quiet new years morning here on the mountain. We are open and ready to start collecting photons, just waiting for the observers source to rise.
Will be by myself until tomorrow evening, so it will be an even quieter few days than it usually is.
Found some more good used books on the Barnes and Noble site. I’ve gotten some pretty cool books @ great prices recently from some of their used book sellers.
Hope everyone has a great day
Bob
P.S. Time to see what’s for breakfast on the dining car and send it to points west. Doug, Don, and Ray she’ll be coming soon!
TANKs for all DA BIRTDAY greetings, I feel[:$]. Today I become a SENIOR CITIZEN? I am 55! WOW, time flies. Oh well at least I’ll get the senior citizen discount at the super market on Wednesdays.
Went out with the Flintlock yesterday with BRO. At about 500PM all the deer came out of the woods into the field about 50 yrds away. I was in the woods. 14 of them there and because of cloud cover I couldn’t see mt front site. I waited hoping they would get closer instead they got out about 80 yrds and with the impending nitefall, I unloaded the gun into the ground and scared the daylights out of the deer. The field had about 14 whilst the woods came alive with the shot and deer ran all over the place. Neat scene but nothing to show for. Oh well maybe Monday? Came home cleaned gun and had nice evening with BRO and Wife. Fell asleep at 1130. Oh yea, played trains for an hour NO PILE UPs!!!
