CRAZY HORSE

Morning, kids...the sun is out...the weather is mild...must be a Saturday!...sure nuff...we are still in the 'over it mode' and keep thinking about the what ifs...but, that too, shall pass...moving on and I mean moving on...we have planned an extensive trip up north in Cosmo ... Which, BTW, has its problems...not too keen on just showing up to some camp sites, without a reservation....listen, we have NO time line...so we can take as long as we want...so, why hurry?...thus, I set up traveling times to be no longer than 5 or 6 hours ...depending on traffic, of course... I am leaning towards Good Sam and KOA's ...just cuz they have the best ratings, usually...I prefer the full hookups...yea, near Glamping ...well, it's my party...of course, staying in Santa Barbara, is a must...and...ran into a big problem right off the bat... NO VACANCIES ...OK, then scheduled everything after Memorial Weekend...and BOOM, we are set... Friends in Orygun , we are coming your way.....

Ah, sorry, kids...woke up late...have the early tee time...so, this is just an informative little ditty...the condo sale is KAPUT!...the last gasp extension did not work, and the deal is now officially DEAD!...we stay...we cancel all of the desert plans...for now...take the condo off the market...for 6 months to a year...whenever the uptick happens here in downtown... There is a reason for everything, right?...this was not a good buyer...for a number of reasons...I knew it all along, but wishing and hoping is not the solution... So the immediate plans for movement are done...and now we plan on a trip up north...Cosmo is willing and waiting... Oh my, PDX should have won last eve...they did bring their center up...interesting, as the Warriors did not run that much high pick and rolls...still, it was there for the taking and NOPE...too bad... The mighty Pads got game 1 versus the Bucs... Gotta run...

According to Jeff Probst , the host of Survivor ...there is indeed a word, 'strategize' ... I'll give you a moment to do so ...well now, the finals for this season was last eve...taped it...and have not seen the results... shhhh, don't tell me. ..in the grand scheme of things, this is certainly just a side light, right?... The return to conservatism , is in full swing...as the ban of abortions is on the rise in some states...here is the item of extreme interest, they are talking 'all abortions' ...the rape, incest, and the unfortunate (bad word?) are included...removing all rights of the woman... what say you? ... In the on again, off again, on again, and off again.... sale of our condo ...we have a mixed bag of emotions...we rationalize staying, then, go thru with the anticipation of the new...well, you know what I mean... just hate being at the mercy of someone else...ah, see above ...it truly feels like we will stay put for a year...when the market p...

Hey all...an early tee time, so this is one of them quickees....but, must do a commentary on the Blazer/Warrior game last eve...for you, who have followed me for like years...many years...this may seem a bit redundant...hearing the analysts say the same thing that I have, just makes me cringe a bit... The Trailblazers have increased their talent load...the guard tandem are of the best in the league...the franchise has moved and shaken up their bigs, often...the team can score...in fact, the way to their wins, is to outscore others...BUT...the good teams out there, have outstanding shooters...lots of them...so, DEFENSIVELY, one needs to adjust the coaching technique...ah, when a player does not play, it is termed, DNP... When a coach doesn't coach, it should be called DNC! ...which is exactly what the PDX dude has done for his tenure at the helm of this squad...he REFUSES to hedge his big dudes on the shooters...regardless of whom he has for his defense coach, he must over-ride ...

Life is always testing ya , right?...is there such a thing as a norm?...does everything have to be hard?...why not easy?...can't you just plug in and play the dang thing?...what battery type is needed?...where is the manual?...I can't see the small print...where are my reading glasses?...I just bought a 3 pack at Costco, and can't find any of them...did I pack my regular glasses?...can't find them, either...is the light on?...is that Chinese?... OK, then, that probably triggered Donny in his frustration with them...he was trying to put a new case on his iPhone...he realized that it was made in China...the case he bought, was too....the language needed to help solve the dilemma was in Chinese...that's IT!...he will show them...tariff 'em to he__!...he'll get even with them... I have NO IDEA the meaning of the FALSE POSITIVE TEST ...but, that pretty much sums up the direction of the present inhabitant of the White House... Just have to give a shout...

Hey all...back from the first trip in Cosmo ...must say it handles extremely well on the road, er, highway...well, freeway, whatever...pavement...gets 14 miles to the gallon of petrol...I think that is good...it uses that, in lieu of those engines that are diesel...OK, then... The trip was two fold...to test out the rig and the other...to see the kids and the Lil General ...all are doing great and it was special for Marsh to be with the grandchild on Mother's Day. ..had a splendid time....as we hurried back to deal with the sale of the condo... Had the inspection done today, while we were on the road...some minor things that have to be corrected, but...it sure appears to be a go...man, what a process...so our days appear to be numbered...will see how the contingencies finish up... It's hard to watch the debacle in DC...with Trump muddling up the connection with China...his way of dealing with people...I must say, ALL PEOPLE, is just another example of his inabilit...
