Good Morning All! I'm running a little late this morning, getting prepped for the four grandkids to show up. We have a day at the firing range set up for them. They will be firing pistols and rifles, generally blowing the dickens out of things. I was busy prepping the steaks for our mid-afternoon meal.


These are going into the chill chest for the adults:


I invited this fellow and he accepted.

The weather is fine today, Sunshine and warm temps so I will be firing up the grill later to Sizzle these beauties. Drop on over, there is plenty for all.

Npp, SWMBO has gone next door to help with goat delivery. Three does decided to have their kids this morning and she is great helping get the kids out, dry and cords tied. Last year we ended up with two male kids living in our bathroom because they arrived during a snowstorm 4 kids to one doe the neighbor kept the two doe kids in their house until they were old enough to cope with the cold weather. The two males ended up neutered and now belong to one of "our boys" who was adopted by a great couple and has come a long way. He has trained the kids to dance and do goat obedience. What it has done to his self esteem is nothing short of a miracle. Abused children all are different in their responses but Pete is really great. The dancing goats are a riot and get him a lot of new friends, plus something he knows others don't. Now I have to start the dough for pizza so we can have pizza for the whole delivery crew, plus the other one of "our boys" David and his foster family are going to spend the day with us. He is working on a secret project for a poster on OPP, and his artwork is outstanding.

Today's the day! The day we've all been waiting for. There are so many activities lined up for today it's hard to decide where to start!

Just one or two rules before we begin:

1/ No ad hominem attacks. Period!
Name-callers will be put in time-out. No Exceptions. If you think I can't and/or won't do it, try me. You can be nasty to each other for the other 364 days of the year. This day is reserved for civil society. Unless the rest of us think it's funny, then you get a pass...

2/ No naked posting.
In order to post to this thread, you must be wearing your underwear, at the very minimum. Anyone caught posting naked will be required to post a photo of their nakedness for the world to see.

3a/ No picking on Lindajoy allowed.
She's our honored guest for the day and as such will be afforded the respect and deference she so richly deserves, because Linda, and that's all you need to know.

3b/ Lindajoy is allowed to pick on anyone, at any time, for any reason, and there's nothing you can do about it.
So there.

4/ And finally... If you chew gum, you must bring enough for everybody.
Don't wait, just hand it out and hope you have a piece left for yourself.

Now, for those who made it this far, here's a little treat:
