I would LOVE to have a drenching downpour right now! We haven't seen rain for at least 3 weeks now. It has been a very dry summer. The daily forecast is not showing rain forecasted until 10/3 with a 40% chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judge had a couple of thrilling hits but nothing that left the park. Still, the crowd atmosphere was electric. My brother has a partial season plan (20 games) & he almost always invites me. Free ticket for me but I buy most of the food & beverages so he's making out on this deal. With Metro-North having a train station at the new stadium, it makes getting in and out a breeze...and cheaper than the $45 they charge to park. Our next and last game in this Sunday. Finger-crossed I get to see a piece of history in person. Edited September 22, 2022 by HBE4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get it for a dollar at McDonald's and I agree with @HBE4 that it is good.

Rare A&L_Ont Posted September 22, 2022 #71964 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Owen had football practice all week, with his first game tomorrow late afternoon. Tomorrow night he has a rep hockey tryout game. He made the first round of cuts. Lucy last night. Here are some of the items purchased from Costco today. I guess all could be used at football and hockey games, but the foot and hand warmers are my main pic. Doing some prep work for a week Monday. 😁 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted September 22, 2022 #71965 Share Posted September 22, 2022 You know you go to Starbucks too much, when they greet you by name and hand you your drinks when you walk in the door. Going there 3 or 4 times a week is a habit I would like to break. Just like those Carmel lattes too much. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you haven't tried it yet, you need to give Tim's dark roast a shot. It's been out for a few years and is vastly superior to their regular roast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Wawa around me either but I do enjoy stopping at them. Sandwiches are good, maybe slightly above average as far a convenience store sandwiches go. But I really enjoy ordering them from the kiosk. Between types of bread, size of bread, to toast or not to toast the bread, toppings, etc, there was an endless amount of ways to customize a sandwich. I think I enjoyed the ordering process more than the actual sandwhich. Speaking of sandwiches, is Quizno's still in business? I haven't seen one in ages. Used to like them as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This view is from the Hallway where 2 bedrooms are located at. View from Fireplace toward the Kitchen. Could never see that far before because there was a huge wall there, see wires coming up through the floor where the wall was. This view is from coming in from the garage into the kitchen. This view from the front door. This view from the old pantry that was in the corner, could never see this before.......the new fridge location will now have this view. This view from fireplace to the kitchen area. This view from hallway when coming from the 2 bedrooms on this end of the house. This is going to be the "Money Shot" though, when coming in the front door , you can now see both the Fireplace, Sunroom and the Outside Deck . Before could never see the outside deck from the front door. Already looks so much better being opened up. This will look great when done. What is their expected timeline to have the project complete? Sorry if you said and I missed it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
