Here for cats, sports (go Lions, Tigers), travel, music. Michigander spending cold months in Florida. Ooh-woo, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now I been feeling it since 1956, now Might be over now, but I feel it still Operationally noncompliant
@grenadine.bsky.social Two of the roses are still growing. The deer pulled one out and it didn't make it. These two got mowed over when I had someone cit my grass last year but they came back.
Happy Fourth of July. Just watched the local parade about 100 yards from our house. Fireworks on Thunder Bay last night. Wordle 1,841 3/6 ⬛⬛🟨⬛⬛ ⬛⬛🟨⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
A pleasant Memorial Day to you all. Today we saw some rather unusual scenery. And I got Wordle in 3.
Greetings from Kauai. A Happy Friday to all, especially those still working for a living. Wordle 1,798 4/6 ⬛🟩⬛⬛⬛ 🟨⬛🟨⬛⬛ ⬛🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
So Happy It's Thursday. We took a sunset cruise off the Na Pali Coast yesterday. Before we started, the captain gave us instructions on how to strangle annoying shipmates. Wordle 1,797 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛🟨🟨🟨⬛ 🟨🟨⬛🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Good morning. I suppose it's Tuesday. I have a feeling we're not in Michigan anymore. A birdie in today's Wordle. Wordle 1,795 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟨🟨 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Hello again from Pikeville KY. Woke up, got out of bed, ran a half marathon. Brutal hills in miles 3 and 4. And now... On the road again. Wordle 1,765 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟨🟨 ⬛⬛🟩⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Greetings from Bentonville AR. Home of Wal-Mart and a big bicycling culture. We had a beautiful hike in the Ozarks yesterday. Many possibilities on turn 3. I was pleased it got close enough to get the par. Wordle 1,758 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ 🟨🟨🟨⬛⬛ 🟩⬛🟩🟩⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
There were green alligators and long necked geese Some humpty-back camels and some chimpanzees Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you're born The loveliest of all was the Unicorn Pedantic note: alligators are black, not green.
Greetings from Hot Springs Arkansas! Yesterday was another long drive. I drove the whole way on Monday but not yesterday. We'll stay here a couple days. My first two words served me very well. Wordle 1,753 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟩⬛ ⬛🟩⬛⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Happy Saturday! Got up early to run a 5k. Beat last year's time by over 2 minutes. Best part was having cake after the run. Wordle 1,750 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟨⬛ ⬛⬛🟨⬛🟨 🟩⬛🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Happy Friday. We went out for a 15 mile bike ride today. Our total for the week is over 53, our best. Our turnaround was 803 miles from Richmond VA on the old railroad. Par in today's Wordle. Wordle 1,742 4/6 ⬛🟨🟨⬛⬛ ⬛⬛⬛🟩⬛ ⬛🟨⬛🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Here's a couple of pictures of the front of our house taken by a neighbor. The third I found on Facebook. It's taken a block from our house. I live Northern Michigan. In the summer.
Here is Salty AKA the kitten factory being released. She's very trap savvy. She's also been delivering a litter of about 4 kittens every six months for at least 2 1/2 years. My neighbor managed to trap her and I took her for TNR.
Happy Friday, especially those who have reached the end of the work week. We saw the Blues Beatles last night. A Brazilian group who arranges Beatles song as blues. Very entertaining. Little snip from the show below. Got a birdie in Wordle. Wordle 1,707 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟨🟨 ⬛⬛🟩⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Here's a little snippet. There were two shows, 11:30 and 1:30. Almost completely different.
We love the Withlacoochee Trail. Cut the ride a little short due to impending rain. Rain that never came.
I hope you have a great Wednesday. The weather is nice, good day for a bike ride. Along the trail are the old mile posts from the railroad days. In Wordle, didn't get lucky enough for the birdie. Wordle 1,698 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛🟩🟨⬛🟩 ⬛🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
National Umbrella Day? Time to party. Picture taken in Micanopy, FL, just over 5 years ago.
So Happy It's Tuesday! Started the day with a visit to ZooTampa. Florida is back to typical weather, i.e., warm. Today's Wordle was just a methodical par, getting more positive information on each turn. Wordle 1,697 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟨⬛ ⬛🟨⬛⬛🟨 🟨🟨🟨⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Not the Super Bowl but it was a bowl game at Ford Field. Back about 11 years ago when I was still brave enough to spend winters in Michigan.
Good Sunday morning. Another day in the Virgin Islands before heading back. The hotel cat is totally unimpressed with being petted. Probably needs some mahi mahi to get his attention. Wordle 1,695 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛🟨⬛⬛⬛ 🟨⬛🟨⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Greetings from St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. Now reached 1300 games in Wordle. Wordle 1,694 4/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟩 🟨🟨🟨⬛⬛ ⬛🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
Happy Sunday! It's really cold for Florida, down to 20 last night. Opened our screen porch for some shelter for the ferals. Wordle 1,688 4/6 ⬛⬛🟩🟨⬛ ⬛⬛⬛⬛🟨 🟩🟨🟩⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
I was looking at my weather forecast. Four nights in a row below freezing? Yikes. Closer to the Gulf, there is a chance of snow.
