I'll post them in the morning. The plane is heading back towards town. Maybe the manhunt is over. Nope. He's back and circling closer

Well, it's a gunshop and they know about it. I used to be an ffl holder but I've been inactive for a long time. The plane is flying tighter circles NW of me,about a half mile.

KHP has a 182 in the air doing circles around our section. Eating my steak and baked tater.

Dog is underfoot. Pulling steaks out of the oven, ready to reverse sear. A cruiser goes by the end of the lane every 5 minutes. Probably over already.

To tell me a couple of fugitives are in the neighborhood. They looked through my shop and shed. Nada. I'm cooking supper. .45 is by the range.

The instrument hasn't been invented that could measure the disappointment. Said my wife once

In. You might consider renting a venue unless all of your furniture is vinyl covered.

I will have business in the Emory area sometime in the next 6-8 weeks. We will likely come down through Greenville. Are there any "must stop" eateries in the area? I'll be staying with family just outside of Forney so minus well include that. Thanks in advance.

One daughter, probably too old to hang with that crew. I really fucked up that sentence. I might have been distracted.

An indigo is at the top of my list. Badass snake.

This guy is a friend of my daughters. He is on the piano faculty at the music school she is part of.

We call those Blacksnakes in Kansas but they are actually a species of Rat snake, Pantherophis obsoletus. They can get well over 6' long and as big around as my wrist. They are probably the most common snake in these parts. That looks like the same snake we have here. ETA, wiki says that they are found west of the Mississippi. Not sure what you have there.

This sucks. We always ate at least one meal there whenever we visit our daughter. Like Brisket, I liked the food just fine. Lots of memories.

Kinda looks like Sarah Jessica Parker.

Dammit @Beau Vine, you made me tear up. I don't know who @katiedaymusic16 is but that music is perfect for the video. The lyrics are outstanding. Don’t let em say it’s just a game And there are better things to do 'Cause we’re all lookin' for a reason, for a story, for something to hold onto We’ve had rhythm all along Artists, storytellers, gods And we’ve always had a game to play so don’t tell me it don’t matter if it’s gone As our sons become fathers And our fathers fade away Then the time comes when even we are gone Lord willin', whoever’s left still plays All these holy grounds we’ve built And these gods we’ve come to know They find us when the days are long and leave us in the winter dark and cold But now the weeks are ticking by And I can’t measure out the time Does the grass outside keep growin, do they mow it, do they keep the fields just right And as our girls become mothers And our mothers fade away Then the time comes when even we are gone Lord willin', whoever’s left still plays So don’t you say it’s just a game Like you got better things to do 'Cause we’re all lookin' for a hero, for a savior, for a god We’re all lookin' for distractions and to have a little fun We’re all lookin' for a drink or drug or person who can take away the pain We’re all lookin' for a game to play Motherfuck, I miss baseball.

I keep a badminton racquet in my shed for just such a thing

Different strokes and all that, I rather enjoy it. Her older sis is quite alluring as well.

Wake snagged a good one. Forbes was on my short list of coaches to replace Marshall if he ever leaves. If Pearl hadn't fucked SF over at Tenn, he would have already been a Head Coach instead of rehabbing his rep at WSU and ETSU. Fred VanVleet and Ron Baker speak highly of Forbes. I expect him to do well. Oh yeah, one more thing. Fuck Bruce Pearl

Nice work.

Peepholes?

The county I'm in doesn't have a wide variety. Black snake, Rat Snakes, Racers and assorted garter types are plentiful. Go 1 county east or west and you get into the rattlesnakes and copperheads. I've never seen a venomous snake around home. It's a constant struggle to educate folks around here to not kill every snake they see. Same as it ever was.

Southcentral Kansas. These are the prairie subspecies. Probably the same as Texas but I'm not certain of that.

Shouldn't be a problem. They are everywhere around my house. My property includes an abandoned quarry. You can't turn over a rock without exposing one of these.

I've had it with these motherfuckin' snakes on this motherfuckin' plain. Ringnecks under my mineral feeder. Too chilly for them to wiggle away.
