Howdy Y'all, well, we're 25% through with this year. Lets welcome the (hopefully )warmer weather.

Hopefully it stays a little warmer this month. Not too warm, mind you, but pleasant.

Not dead but have pretty well slept almost 24 hours, not sure if I'm getting sick again, stress or both.  Feeling better, sometimes you just have to do that.

Well, we were fortunate yesterday as the tornado's storms split and passed our town both North and South of us. Still some very heavy rain and winds, but no damage at Casa Deacon. Worked today, good day, then took the Missus out to dinner. Gonna go over my Sunday School lesson for tomorrow again. You all be careful!

Howdy Y'all, went to the 1st CAS match of the year here. My first stage was a train wreak with a miss, a bad round and a badly fumbled reload that gave me a 48 second time. The other 4 stages were high 20's low 30's with 2 clean stages and total of 3 misses for the match. I guess it could have been worse. Temps started in mid 30's but got up yo low 50's and sunny. Next shoot in 2 weeks.

Evening all, I'll stir the coals.

Hailed most of the day in town, high of 45. Mrs TK and I went to The City where it was 58 and sunny.

Our plan had been to go to the Turtle Bay Park/natural history museum and grab lunch at the little restaurant on site. Unfortunately, they are closed Sat-Tue until the second week of April. So instead we spent 4 hours shaving her horse.  ::)

Major 2

Triannual vampire visit, at 8:30 am
Doc wants the triad, blood, and #1 & 2 samples, was in & out in 10 minutes (#2 is completed at home)  ::).
Then grabbed a bagel & OJ.... then on to my coffee fix  :)

I have to pull out the old washer, the circuit board quit working and its now out of warranty.
Fact is that part has been a bug a boo since we bought it 5 years ago, it had been replaced twice under warranty. We decided not to call for a service person in that just to come out is $95 + the $$$ parts.
The new machine will be installed Thursday.

Glad you are rested up Del, good thoughts continue for Rita and yourself...
when planets align...do the deal !

Guess everyone was busy today, Hope Y'all had an easy one.
