The new and improved Good Morning thread!

Good morning everyone. My family is getting together today to see my niece enter holy deadlock ... wedlock. The National Guard is on alert.

I want to thank @OldDevilDawg for driving out of his way to introduce me to the joy of meeting up with our MB friends. Were it not for that, I would not have taken the time to meet two other great guys, @RTR...USN (ret) and @Bama Believer. Can't wait for Boone!
 
Good morning everyone! Had a great time last night! @Bama Believer and @batchaps4me are two great people! Thankfully the ladies were there to provide some adult supervision so no bail money was needed. Although the young waitress did raise her eyebrows at us a couple of times lol!
Prolly kept her eye on the nearest exit, just in case? LOL!!! Happy B'Day btw.
 
skipped Lowes, put the old belt back on,, cut for about 10 minutes and belt came off again,, both outside belt guards/keepers have the tabs broken off that has the screw holes to hold the belt guard on,, so no belt guards,,
belt is stretched/worn and is bigger than a new one... probably..
...

...
put the belt back on.. cut for 10 feet and the belt popped off again...
sweaty, wet, grass on knees and elbows..
...
...
Mower is 10 years old,, maybe its time... looking at foothills tractor website where @RTR...USN (ret) bought his new mower..
...
..
I don't have enough yard to justify in my mind a zero turn...
calculating how many times I can pay someone to cut my yard vs the cost of a new mower, gas, tires, batteries, blades, belts, spindles, etc.

I love my new zero turn mower!
 
Good morning folks.

I'm sure most of you are disappoint, but in spite of my best efforts, I am in fact still alive. Triple digit speeds on the water at night is right up there with the top most fun ways that I've tried to kill myself.

@RTR...USN (ret) sorry I missed wishing you a happy birthday, I didn't read back and scarcely post anymore. Don't feel too bad though, my family and friends all forgot my birthday one year, but they still love me.....I think.
 
Good morning everyone. I am fixing to leave for a quick visit with my MIL in the hospital and then on to Alabama. My family there is on the access road that runs parallel to the information superhighway so it will be the first of the week before I can post about meeting old friends for the first time. Be safe and have a great one until then.
If you ever make it to Vegas, Id buy you a beer.
