I missed you, Patton.
Glad you're back.

As a Navy vet (8yrs in the nuclear sub service) I want to thank YOU for being a voice of reason and respect in these disturbing times.
Thank you for your service and dedication, both in Government and in your military service.
I salute you, sir.

That glass of Merlot is starting to kick in...
Time to stop writing on my WIP and say 'Night, night' to the world.
I hope your day was interesting, fulfilling with a big dash of happy!!

Thanks, Moz!
I hope your fit as a fiddle and enjoying a brew at the pub with mates!
I raise my cup of matcha tea in your direction.
Salute!

Have a great one, my friend.

Finally had to toss my outdoor 'Dali' clock!
The heat made time 'flow'... ;-)

My personal fav is a marinated jalapeno martini.
Local bar used to serve small sashimi platter and these for happy hour.
I MISS that place! ;-)

OK, I confess... I had a glass of cold buttermilk with a sprinkling of black pepper on top!
Another drink that I've loved all my life, but the doc says to minimize it.
That buttery, tart taste is sublime!
What drink/food is your guilty pleasure??

Bryan Turner stopped by to deliver my fan 'bling' early 2024.
It hangs proudly in my 'Nerd Den' now.
It was special to have him hand deliver it to my favorite cafe 'Korner Cafe' in Lewisville.
THANK YOU, Bryan and Apogee Entertainment!

Ever been to Yellowstone?
Last week we took a few days of vaca and toured it a bit. In 3 days we only explored a fraction of it!
The hot pools, geysers fields and lakes are AMAZING!!
Yes, it was crowded and traffic not fun, BUT it is worth it.
Go!
Take your time and experience this wonder!!

Mark Knopfler and Chet Atkins.
Chet is was favorite guitarist, I'm trying to learn his music on my Gretsch hollow body.
At 73, it's hard on my hands, but I'm determined... ;-)

Sounds like a grand way to spend the week.
What kind of guitar music?
I have a classical guitar and a Gretsch hollow body.
I enjoy playing spanish pieces on the classical and a mix of old pieces (Knoffler, Atkins) on the electric.
I need to play more! ;-)

Yes, I'm a Nerd...
Over the years I've collected lots of miniatures.
Here a few of them.
Anyone know who the silver robot is? ;-)

More fun than a barrel of Cajun Gnats!!

My Lester 1950s spinet. Mom bought this for me out of her own savings when I was 10.
I loaned it to a grandkid years ago.
Now it's back with me.
Time to limber up the fingers!

For Father's Day I was treated to burgers and dogs on the grill, baked beans with bacon, coleslaw and chocolate cake!
I spent the day watching Star Wars non-stop!
It was AWESOME!!!!!!!

Nap News:
Arrggghhh!
NO NAP today, I had to stay up to help the guys fix our lawn sprinkler system.
Nuts!
But... I DID spend time replacing a broken lifter elbow on my Lester Spinet piano! Time to start practicing again!
Yea, Me!

Movie Review:
Just watched 'The Wolf's Call'
Excellent submarine adventure movie.
As an ex-nuc sub sailor I have to say it had more real life authenticity than most Hollywood movies (though I love those too ;-)
White-knuckle suspense and action.
Highly recommend.
