...wine for m'lady, beer exacerbates her rheumatiz, but yes-that would be outstanding.....if she can put up with you, and Tracy has long experience jousting with me-they would get along fabulously....meanwhile, we'd have to leave while they picked us apart in their chit-chat.....hop in the jeep and find an old dirt road that needs litterin' with beer cans and a stop sign that needs shot up....

Plenty of apple cider being served here. This thing dovetails into the Lincoln Apple Festival which is the next town over and that festival is going on today also, we’re headed there after we’re done here. Plenty of dirt roads here I know of and I could use a smoke anyway...lol

On a continuation of yesterday....
The weather was absolutely gorgeous here in my area and the temperature was around 70 degrees all day. Tamara and I walked around the Apple Festival for almost 5 hours, sampling foods, taking turns pushing Aidan in his stroller, checking out crafts, letting Aidan pet all the dogs and puppies and just talking. I kept noticing how the sun hit her hair when we walked out of the shaded areas into the bright sunshine, how clean and pretty it looked, brown intermingled with red, Autumn colors, the same colors that used to turn my head as she walked past me in the hallways in high school. I saw a smile several times yesterday that used to make a geeky high school nerd’s day and what makes the smile so special is that now it’s a smile for me and it gives me goosebumps every time I see it. As we packed up the stroller for the day, and got all of our goodies we bought ready to take back home I very much wanted to just hug her and tell her what a wonderful day it had been just being there with her, but she beat me to it. “Hey come here for a second my fiancé”, she said before we left with a radiant but somewhat mischievous smile. “I had a wonderful day with you today. It was perfect and there isn’t anyone on earth I’d rather have spent it with. Now buy me and this hungry 2 year old supper and we’ll both love you forever.” I got a crushing hug and a long lingering kiss that lasted long enough to get a look of disapproval from an old biddy walking by us which made me inwardly chuckle. All in all, a very good day yesterday.

Good morning all. I just saw a tweet from Kelly brafett owens wife. People,who,have never read king or are upset that Stephen and Owen dared,to, write a book about women, and as this book is pro women's,rights, they are reviewing it Badley.. just on that premise alone. Or these are people who,do not like kings political views so,they think they can review it based on that alone to some how try and show him he is,wrong,or some stupid crap. If you have read the book or even support king i think we should at least go to places like amazon and Goodreads, walmart etc and at least leave a 4 or 5 star review.. thanks.

Because Blade Runner 2049 hit the big screen this weekend!!! Who ever believed Harrison Ford would do a sequel? It's been my goto for years. "Yeah, I'll believe that when Harrison Ford makes another Bladerunner!" (Trade-ins welcomed! We always treat you right at Harrison Ford!)

And you know what? It's getting great reviews & tanking at the box office. Just like the original! That's about what I hoped for.
HF obviously only agreed to appear if they killed off Deckard, just as he did with Hans Solo. Watch out Indiana Jones! You too Jack Ryan! I mean, I'm not really up for watching Ryan Reynolds, Ryan Gosling, or Goose McDuck, who whoever slog thru 3 more tepid sequels.
A positive review I read said you might have to be over 40 & know the original like the back of your hand to fully appreciate Blade Runner 2049. Done & done! And I mean done!

(1982) "We need you Deckard! We need the old Blade Runner."

(2017) "We need you Deckard! We need the really old Blade Runner."

But hey, at least there are French cars in the future. That makes the "boiled dog" seem almost palatable.
