Hell yeah... 1500 feet and 137 is getting it, on a non prepped track... awesome...

Here is the project I’m working on, and yes the Mastiff puppies are lots of “help.”
We are to the point of building the platform... I’ll be up for a while.. my bride is going to get dinner... I’m to continue work... I snuck on here while she is feeding the pups... Shadrach is a male, the bigger one, at about 150 lbs at 8.5 months, and Abbie is a very thick solid female running over 90 lbs at 4.5 months.. she won’t be as tall but she’ll be thicker and heavier than him... he is predicted to go 225 lbs and she may go 250ish. Based on their parents...

That's quite the project!!! Beautiful dogs!!! We have two Scottish Terriers. Corona is on the left Cutty on the right. Corona got her name because she was born on Cinco De Mayo (My birthday too). Cutty got her name from Cutty Sark the Scotch that I drink.....

That is quite a project. You would be a handy guy to have around! Nice doggies both of you.

As for me, I am gettingeady to embark on a big change. We had been gathering bids on getting some renovations done on the 30+ year old house where we live. Some were much needed safety related issues but most just really old, worn & outdated stuff needing to be replaced, painted, repaired, etc. It was proving to be way more expensive than we had hoped & really hard to live through and stay in the house. So we looked once again for a house to buy just to be sure we wanted to renovate instead of move. We had looked for homes off & on forever & have never seen one that checked off the boxes of what we wanted that we could come anywhere near to affording. Well this time we found one that did meet the criteria. Went to see it yesterday & fell in love. Looking positive like we might just go for it. Next few days we will see if it all works out.

Not a bad area to retire to.
Thanks for the info Jan!! Continue enjoying your retirement. You deserve it!!

lol, I love those names... Satchmo, our previous Mastiff was named for Louis Armstrong, he of the big black cheeks. Shadrach and Abbie, (Abednego) are both biblical names. Two of three thrown in the furnace. We had decided to wait on a dog, until my situation came about. We got Shadrach shortly after I got out of the hospital and he was very instrumental in my recovery. Even as a puppy he understood I was still sick. I have a severe neuropathy in my left hand, and to this day he won’t touch it when we play. My poor right hand and arm have been trashed and mauled, as puppies do, and sometimes I bled a LOT due to my blood thinners but to date, he still won’t bother my left hand... Abbie, we got her so Shad would have a companion. She doesn’t give a shit about my hand, it’s all fair game to her... She has become the lovey one though and Shad has bonded strongly with his mother, as male mastiffs are known to do... he and I still have a bond... when I’m not home he sits in my recliner... both are Champion blood line dogs, but we won’t be breeding them. They are our children and neither of us is ready for welping... maybe if we were retired... but no...

For the record, I’m a solid rum drinker... can’t wait for the doc to clear me... I haven’t had a drop since Halloween last year... When I’m released, my wife and I are going back to Jamaica for ten days to two weeks... oh yeah...

i hope it does work out for you... my wife and I look often, both online and in person... weekend sojourns... All are relatively in the area we live though we look closer to both our parents places... if the right house comes along, we’ll jump... until then, we really love where we live...

That's great Jan - Hope it all works out!

We renovated our kitchen 2 years ago with all new cabinets & counter tops. We went almost 4 months without a kitchen. Now we are looking at doing our master bath......
