Simple Pleasures

Walking around a store without a mask on.

Scuba Diving -----

Enjoying blue water therapy and the liquid prozac .... washing away all shit terestial

It was topless Jeep weekend and we celebrated by taking rabbit’s top off, strapping the kayaks to her and spending a few hours yakking in the swamps of Pearl River.

Confused? Rabbit’s Jeep is named...rabbit.

Natural, All you post was on my HONEY DO list. She never comes home without a pot for me to plant. Rain coming today.

The year before last we put in an 8' x 16' raised vegetable garden. This year I tilled and fertilized it and put a 6' deer fence around it. We didn't do a garden last year, but the year before, the deer wreaked havoc in there. Last year they almost destroyed a new apple tree we planted. Come archery season this year, I may have an arrow with a deers name it.

Already had pea pods in and this weekend we planted 6 different kinds of tomatoes, 4 different kinds of peppers, green beans, zuchinni, pumpkin, eggplant, brussel sprouts, cabbage, 2 different kind of carrots, and bordered the whole thing with marigolds. The pumpkin went into a separate area from the raised bed, as did a Stevia plant.

The Mrs planted some new bulbs and annuals, and it's a really nice feeling getting it all in the ground. Other than the weeding, the hard part is done.

Getting my new flower bed planted-took three days of turning over the soil, putting ten bags of compost and soil in, and two trips to the nursery to buy plants and flowers. It was a lot of work but it looks so good!

Going for a ride on the bike on any nice sunny and warm day. I love this time of year where we transition from bare trees to trees with leaves, and the spring flowers and flowering trees.

climbing Sentinel Dome for the first time since the snow melted-good to be back

spending time with kids and grandkids

Outside enjoying a beautiful springtime sunset, a glass of pinot noir with some very special pignoli cookies <3

Congratulations, gentlemen! There's a pretty good chance my kids are genetic cul-de-sacs, which is fine with me, but babies are pretty terrific.

Congrats-@Fokkers and @Mayhem! Still waiting for my first grandchild.

Lol... I guess although technically I would be a (grand)mother fokker then.... lol

...and the Moms of the kids would be mother Fokkers?

Although the ‘GrandFokker’ does have a certain aura to it...

Pops Fokker... has a certain ring to it.

Congratulations as well Mayhem!

Thank you everyone, mom and baby are doing fine. The little fokker was 3 weeks early because Mom had preeclampsia.

Yeah #1 I was weird I wasn’t even 50 yet so I wanted something ‘cool’ so “Pops” it was. The other grandfather goes by PopPop so it was in line.

Congrats Fokkers. Three days ago was #6 for us.

The first is an eye opener. My wife asked what I wanted to be known as. I asked what she meant. She said, "You know, Grampy, Grandpa, or....". Hearing that literally made me shudder. It's kind of old hat now.

FWIW - I chose Papa. Didn't sound as "old" :-)

Fokkers,

Awesome! And congratulations!!

Simple pleasure: our second grandson was just born.

“Dude “ is still spelled, “d-u-d-e,”...... dude.

Is that a "cat in the hat" aka "pussy in the hat" you want. I will take one too. Wear the hat, certainly a way to get lucky. Send the free hat to every member We will know who we all are. Vanillas will not know the logo meaning.
