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 as usual and it's Friday! We had a good time at Schlesinger's last night, more and more folks were last night as the temps continue to drop in the area. I know today will be a busy one getting ready for tomorrow's football game at West Point with Army taking on Georgia Southern. It's a 1200 (12 o'clock) kick off which means we'll have the EOC up and running by 0700 (7 am). Tonight, a few of us are going out for restaurant week as we picked The North Plank Tavern this time:

    I hope everyone has a great weekend as well and gets to enjoy a few of your favorites throughout it....... ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and it's a brisk Fall morning here in the Hudson Valley. Heading out the door in a few as we have an early Army / Navy meeting starting at 0700 on MS Teams with our Navy counterparts in preparation of this year's game:

    There's a lot of logistics involved this year as the game will be played here at West Point (first time since 1943) and it'll take 175+ buses to get the Midshipmen up here alone. More to follow as we get closer to December 12th. Anyway, enjoy all and have a great day....... ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a good time at Schlesinger's last night, the stogies were burnin' and a number of the regulars were there. Tomorrow will be a work day in the backyard as most of the leaves have fallen and it's time to rake them up. Hopefully the weather clears up as it's been raining off an on since yesterday and will continue through today according to NOAA:

    Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0400 and it's Thursday which means we'll be at Schlesinger's Hudson Valley Cigar tonight. Beth and I had a nice day yesterday starting off with a tribute to Medal of Honor recipient Captain Robert E. Brown from Highland Falls, NY. Bobbie Brown was a 30 year vet and served in WWII:

    Afterwards, we went to the New Windsor, NY American Legion Post 1796 where we celebrated the day with fellow vets. Enjoy everyone and I hope we see a few of the local S/BOTL this evening........ ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and I'm another year old. Plans changed last night as the restaurant we choice to go to is closed now on Mondays now. So we stayed home and sat out back enjoying a few cold ones and I smoked a well aged Don Pepin. We're going to hit up this new place in town tonight instead and see what everyone is raving about:

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and it's "Hump Day". As we all await the election results, the Army football team is getting ready to take on Air Force this Saturday here at West Point. It's an early kickoff for the game, 1130 (11:30 am) which means we'll open up the EOC roughly at 0600 (6 am). Have a great day all and remember to stay safe out there...... ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday. Beth and I had a good weekend overall, had a couple of friends over on Saturday to watch some college football and enjoy the Halloween festivities. Beth and I did some yard work yesterday before the NASCAR race / NFL games. Congrats to Chase Elliott for taking the checkered flag and advancing to the final four in next week's championship race:

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's Thursday which means we'll be at Hudson Valley Cigars this evening as always. Congrats to Kyle Busch for taking the checkered flag in yesterday's NASCAR race that finally happened. I see that there's a chance of snow tomorrow as the weather guessers are calling for up to a half inch over at NOAA:

    Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and it's already "Hump Day". I got to split a good half a cord of wood yesterday after work as it dried out here long enough to do so and before night set in. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the NASCAR race in Texas:

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's chilly Fall morning out. It rained off and on yesterday and throughout the night. Hopefully it'll stop this afternoon for a while so I can go out back to the wood pile and split some wood for the fire pit. The NASCAR race never got restarted yesterday either as it's rescheduled for a second day in a row with a noon start time today:

    https://www.nascar.com/news-media/2020/10/26/nascar-cup-series-playoffs-texas-motor-speedway-tuesday-restart/

    Fingers crossed that they get er' in and race today. Anyway, enjoy all and remember to be safe out there......?null

Yesterday NASCAR race got rescheduled for this morning as a result of rain, the checkered flag will be flown at 1000 (10 am) on NBCSN. Have a great week everyone and enjoy........ ?

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on as always and it's Thursday which means we'll be at Schlesinger's Hudson Valley Cigars this evening. I got the base of the gazebo all buttoned up and sealed from the elements and especially from the local varmints, i.e., ground hogs, skunks, etc. The gazebo sits on a foot of packed gravel but I didn't want anything to nest under it for the winter season. This evening, the Eagles take on the Giants which should be a good one. Anyway, hope to see some of the local S/BOTL and enjoy....... ?

    Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0420 as always and it's already "Hump Day". I got half the yard work done yesterday as I cut/miter sawed all the base board finish cuts done on the gazebo. All I have to do is pre-drill them this evening and set them in place. I used a PVC trim board from Lowe's versus wood for a longer lasting and rot free finish:

    Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's looking like we'll have a little rain off and on for the next two days according to NOAA:

    Hopefully it holds off for a bit as I have some yard work to do this afternoon. If not, I'll get it done Thursday as the sun will be back out with a high of 70 °F. Anyway, enjoy all and remember to be safe out there...... ?

    Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and it's back to work Monday already. We had a great weekend overall, the rain on Friday delayed the delivery of the gazebo until Saturday morning. We had a super time Saturday afternoon / evening with friends over from work enjoying German and Hungarian foods, drinks and cigars. Yesterday was a relaxing day out back smoking cigars and all. Congrats to Joey Logano on taking the checkered flag in yesterday's NASCAR race and being one of the final four in the championship race which is in 3 weeks. The Eagles almost came back to win yesterdays match up against the Ravens losing 30 - 28. I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys...... ?
