Shipping last pottery shipment of this year to MO. via UPS.I feel bad shipping these warmer (55 degree)pots to an arctic chill zone

A few outlets are wiped on stock(yes the grocery stores)
seems like the day before xmas is a feeding frenzy no matter what I give them in terms of stock-restock in am before heading offshore to get more crabs.Love the ocean and its bounty.

Going crabbing today-my white stuff will be crab meat not snow

Last day of sales-then time off.I have been making at least 3 drops a day to outlets and today is the last day of that as well-ya.

Been off the last three weeks, and will probably take three more. Trying to decide if I want to hang up my tool belt after 42+ years. Maybe do some flip houses, or perhaps make some clay: or both.

Finally talked my husband into retiring he is turning 67 in Feb. He's not retiring until the end of the year but at least he is agreeing to it. He is doing the work of three or four people at his job, they don't hire new people when someone quits they just dump it on him. He likes his job but the over load is going to kill him. His hobby is restoring old muscle cars it would be nice if he could work on them during the week instead of just weekends. I also want to have him around for a long time after he retires. Denice

I'm back! Drove a 9 point buck out to a young hunter on Friday afternoon. . . his first rifle buck and largest deer. Have seen lots of deer, and have hiked nearly 20,000 steps each of two days, and something like 70 flights of stairs. Good exercise for a diabetic.
best,
Pres

I know a few hunters myself-weather its deer-ducks or geese. Me I stick to hunting in the sea-mostly Tuna halibut and a few rockfish.
-
Yeah, if I were where you are I might also. At the same time, we both get wet one way or another.
best,
