LOL, altho that's really not funny.

It's chilly here today, the wind mostly. I feel like being lazy today:) I've got so many projects going right not, I'm wondering around from one to the other. I've got a good book started, I like doing those puzzles (I think I'm finally getting the hang of them, I just did one in 17 minutes:), I have to check in here, of course,:) and yesterday I finally got started on going thru all those old old newspapers and cutting out the interesting stuff and making a scrap book. I think it's going to be a lot funner then I thought it would be. Reading some of the other events in these papers, other then the headline that it was saved for is really interesting. I made it thru 1 paper last night, Nov 22, 63, Kennedys assasination.

For example:): Tbone steaks for 69 cents a pound, new houses for $10,000 with a monthly payment of $60!!!!!! The movie section and TV sections are so funny. Also in this paper that announced his death, there was two articles about things Kennedy was going to do in the future, like dump LBJ as hisVP in the next election, and a phone call to some old VP who was celebrating his 94 birthday.

Those papers and the old ads are great, they are a lot of fun and will only become ~more~ interesting the older they get.

We had fun with some wadded up newspapers that had been used as insulation in our beach house. We looked and could tell when they had done that and what was going on ;~D

That's pretty neat putting those old articles in a scrap book. I also have a Kennedy, and Nixon resigns one.

Nice pictures of your ride. Harley looks like he put on some weight. Or maybe that is winter hair. SIL brought home a palomino pony. Registered QH and Q pony. She must be only about 14 hands. When they get her out, I will take some pictures. They will work with her and sell her for owner.

We are having a lot of wind today also. Not too cold. I got my cleaning done this morning, so I can play my game this afternoon. My group is planing a big battle...
