Annoyed at thread drift

Good morning drifters. It's 59 degrees in the desert this morning and the sun will be up in a little while or at least I hope it will if not it will remain dark and get really cold.

Not much on the drift overnight and I guess this means that everyone got a nights sleep instead of sitting in front of the computer. I actually got a little sleep myself as there were no apparent hordes wandering around.

Have to go to town and buy food again today or go hungry and I really don't like to be hungry. True, I could miss a few meals and it wouldn't hurt me but I like to eat. Plus it's good for me to eat, otherwise I would starve and I figure that's one way I don't want to leave this old world.
 
Friday

Cool here, low of 43° and 48° right now! The sun just peaked through the clouds!
Really green and as soon as the dew burns off, mowing will begin. Ferns up, other wild stuff blooming, newly planted wildflower seed is up. Leaves getting bigger on the oaks.
Horses were frisky on the way to the pasture, too bad I wasn't? 😞 Wife is off today so she helped.
SS was posted Wed.night, today is payday for my part-time! So will be off for shavings and horse feed. 0.02¢ left in the pocket, so wildness may occur! 😙

BCC, Idaho Cafe in Cork , Ireland, there must be a story with that? Do you know?

* Idaho is an invented word! Mining lobbyist George M. Willing presented the name "Idaho" to congress for a new territory around Pike's Peak, claiming it was a Shoshone Indian phrase: "E Dah Hoe (How)" supposedly meaning Gem of the Mountains.

I was told the Shoshone "Gem of the Mountains" referred to the sun's shining upon the Idaho Tertitories through the mountains and that the cafe owner's brother emigrated to Idaho, both reasons for the naming.

Good afternoon all, Hoping everyone is having a great day? Not a nice day in the neighborhood here! Cloudy, overcast day and the temps have dropped! :(
An old friend is visiting from Georgia so we were out for dinner and for breakfast this morning? Remembering a lot of things we did in our past, some good, some not so good but we had a lot of fun! :confused:

Robert great pics, enjoy your trip and be safe! ;)
BCC same deal, keep enjoying your trip and be safe! :cool:
 
My dad's family came from Cork in the late 1700's. Wish I could see it before I croak.

My wife and I and two of her sisters were going to go about 20 years ago, I sent for some fishing info, when it came in my wife said what is that, I told her it was fishing info for Ireland, she said we are going for sight seeing and to look up family not fishing, I said good, you and your sisters can go to Ireland and I will go to Mt and do some trout fishing, they found my family but none of theirs, I shouldn't have been so thick headed and gone anyway but that's the Irish in me. :D
 
I like my Foodsaver vacuum sealer a lot. I went to the store this morning and found deals on two kinds of sausages I like, so a total of 5 1/4 pounds of links came home with me. Zip zap in nothing flat the sausages were repackaged in small quantities and in my freezer.
