Getting used to these short work weeks. Between trips to the beach, holidays, overnight visits it friends......a 37.5 hr work week it going to be difficult but at least this isn't one of them!

Good morning Nancy and Linda. It poured here this morning. That alters plans for the day. I may have to do some work.
Enjoy the day, pholks.

Morning Lime, Linda, Bill & BN.
I'm sadly counting down the hours til I go back to work on Thursday but today it's supposed to be 86 so I think I'll 'work' in my tan [smilie=battingeyes.gif]

Good morning.

At the Pelicans last home game on Sept. 27, 2 local restaurants had tables set up in the concourse where you could fill out a raffle ticket (for free) to win stuff. I won a gift certificate from Sticky Fingers Ribhouse. I like BBQ and I've never been to this place so I was going to go there for lunch today. Change of plans. I got an email from The Brass Tap, 15% of all proceeds today will be donated to help out with the recovery from Hurricane Harvey. They have 60 beers on tap, it's Taco Tuesday and I can help out a little. I don't know how many locations they have but Brass Tap is a chain so they should be able to raise a few thousand dollars today. Sticky Fingers will have to wait for another day, the gift certificate is good for 120 days.

Good morning BN, finishing up hurricane preps today, making evacuation plans should that be necessary. Sure wish that storm would make a hard right and head out into the Atlantic.

It's not gonna be good wherever she hits. I'll follow your lead in hoping for a hard right turn!
What do you do with your boat if something heads your way?

The last couple of times I had to go to DMV when I lived in NY it was a much more pleasant experience then back in the old days. Instead of one long line for everybody, they gave you a number based on why you were there - insurance problem, registration, driver's license, etc. Much more efficient.

You can even make an reservation for a specific time. That way you don't have to wait too long. I had to do a few things so I was there for an hour. But it's still so much better than the old days.

What's an appointment at the DMV :o . Only appointment in Pennsylvania is for taking your driving test and those are usually about 8 weeks out

The Carolina League gives a Broadcaster of the Year award to the best play by play announcer in the league. There's an article on the Pelicans website saying their broadcaster was voted the co-Broadcaster of the Year for the 2017 season. I'd hate to hear what some of the other announcers in the league sound like if this clown won the award. In my opinion, he's one of the worst announcers I've ever heard.

Since I can't haul it out of the water I'll take the sails and bimini off and put on extra lines. That's about all I can do.

The tacos were pretty good and I had something called Blue Blaze Altbier with them, it's an amber ale. It was a tasty adult beverage. After I finished eating I had a flight of 4 beers - Swamp Cabbage Weissbier, Rusty Bull Piece Of Wit, Red Hare SPF 50/50 and Low Tide Coastal Harvest Gose. The Low Tide was my favorite, the Swamp Cabbage was good, I wouldn't go out of my way to have the other 2 again.
