Good morning post 3.0

Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0420 and it's already "Hump Day". I see that the NY Rangers dropped another one last night, lets go fellas and turn things around. They play tomorrow evening again, hopefully they can figure out a way to win one for a change. Anyway, enjoy everyone and remember to be safe out there.......?

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and a happy start to your Sunday. There's a lot of sports on today to include, NFL, NHL, NBA, and NASCAR. Beth and I are going to an Honor Flight fundraiser later on today at the Rushing Duck Brewery in Chester, NY. It's always a great time and a well worth event. I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys it as well....... 🍺

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's looking like we'll be having another beautiful day here in the Hudson Valley. I've got some yard work to do today as a lot of the trees have dropped their leaves. According to NOAA, we have rain coming our way tomorrow and Friday:

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it’s looking like we’ll have a nice Fall day today. Weather wise, I think the kids in the neighborhood will have a good time tomorrow going around trick or treating and we’ll be outside giving away candy to all that come by. I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy…… 🎃

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's a work day here at the Baranyai's house. I'm going to start with replacing our old mailbox and post. Up here in New York, they recommend you go at least 36" deep because of the frost line and all. After that, I'll trim the back hedge row the season and that should be enough for today. Have a great day all and enjoy...... 👍

Beth and I are going on a day trip today to do some shopping at the Smoke House of the Catskills up in Saugerties, NY: https://thesmokehouseofthecatskills.com/ and then afterwards to Deising's Bakery in Kingston, NY: https://www.deisings.com/. Tomorrow, we are going to Krucker's Oktoberfest in Pomona, NY which is one of our favorite Oktoberfest of the year. I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy it as well........ 🍺

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's a bit chilly as we speak (45°F). Fall is definitely upon us with temps ranging from the upper 30s to the low 70s:

    I see that the Yankees lost another one to the Rays and now have their backs to the wall down 2 games to 0. Let's go fellas and take 3 in a row (got to have faith). I hope you all have a great week and enjoy a favorite or two or......... :)

    Good morning all, the espresso is on and it's a beautiful start to the morning. Congrats to the Yankees on sweeping the Red Sox in the Wild Card and advancing to the ALDS where they will now take on the Rays starting Saturday. Today we have a work day at the American Legion, a couple of camaraderie with fellow veterans to make the place better for all. Later on this afternoon, we'll be heading over to the Brothers of the Leaf in Newburgh, NY to enjoy a couple of tasty stogies:

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's looking like we'll have a nice Fall day today finally. Beth and I will get some yard work done today after going out to the market. The Eagles lost to the Bears last night, it's time for the Birds to regroup and get back to the way they played a few years ago. I hope you all have a great day and enjoy...... :)

    A number of outdoor events have already been cancelled and the Tri-state area is hunkering down as they say. I hope everyone has a safe and relaxing weekend....... 👍

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's a brisk Fall day here in the Hudson Valley. I see that the Yankees lost at home last night to the Rays, let's go fellas and turn things around with a couple of "W"s. Today, a number of us are going to a Veteran's appreciation brunch put on by the Orange / Sullivan Counties Hospice group. I'm sure that there will be a number of veterans from the area I'll know and enjoy spending time with. Have a great day all and enjoy....... 🇺🇲

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's the last day of summer. We had a great weekend overall: We had a great day in the City watching the German Day Parade and the afterwards we went to Reichenbach Hall in Midtown where we enjoyed a few cold German beers and tasty foods:

    Yesterday was our 23rd anniversary and enjoyed brunch together. Afterwards, I went to Brothers of the Leaf and smoked a couple of cigars watching the Eagles win in the final minutes. I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys........ :)

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and it's a foggy / humid start to the weekend here in the Hudson Valley. We had a good time at Brothers of the Leaf in Newburgh, NY yesterday with a packed house watching Thursday Night Football and enjoying primo stogies. Tomorrow, Beth and I are taking the train down to Manhattan, NY to watch the German Parade and take in all the festivities:

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's a muggy morning here in the Hudson Valley. Congrats to the Yankees on their win last night, keep it up and put up another "W" tonight. I see that the Seahawks came back last night and beat the Patriots in the opening game of the 2026/2027 NFL season. The 49ers take on the Rams this evening which should be another good one to watch. Have a great day everyone and enjoy....... 🇺🇲

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's the calm after the storm. We had high winds and a good amount of rain late last night into early this morning. The next fews should be nice here in the Hudson Valley according to NOAA:

    The Yankees have a 3 game series this weekend in San Diego against the Padres and the NASCAR drivers are in Darlington, SC with racing tomorrow and Sunday evenings. I hope everyone has a safe and relaxing Labor Day weekend and enjoys...... 🍺

    Good morning everyone, the espresso is on and a hearty breakfast is on the menu. A number of the regulars met up at Brothers of the Leaf last night and it's definitely going to be our new home for a while. I see that the Yankees got their butts beat late last night 10 - 1, let's go fellas and turn things around with a few "W"s. One good thing is that the Mets beat the Rays 3 - 2 keeping the deficit 4.5 games behind. Have a great day all and enjoy....... :)

    Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's a beautiful Saturday morning as we speak. Congrats to the Yankees on their win last night over the Red Sox, keep it up fellas with a few more "W"s. The NASCAR racers are night racing tonight in Daytona which is always fun to watch. Unfortunately, the Aroma Cigar Room in Monroe, NY is closing their doors this weekend after being open a good 6+ years. Between the economy and the NY taxes, they were forced to close. We are now transitioning to the Brothers of the Leaf by Stewart Airport in Newburgh, NY. A very nice private club that I've been to a few times already:

    Good morning all, the espresso is on and it's a brisk Friday morning. I've been up since 0415 (4:15 AM) as I put a 8.75 lbs pork butt on the smoker at 225 degrees. It will take a good 12 to 14 hours to reach the desired 205 degrees internal temperature. Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy it as well....... 🍺
