    Some of us are also Brewers fans. Does that tell you anything? ;-)

    It had occurred to me that the Brewers could possibly grab the Cubs discarded mantle, of course Cleveland stands in the way of that also.

      I went to bed at the rain delay, too.  Wish I’d toughed it out!

      But it’s Thursday, so that means…..what item did Birdin’ find in her pocket pilfered from the Habitat site?  Today it was just a cover from a tube of caulk.  My hands will never come clean completely after today’s job!

      With the Cubbies finally winning the World Series again, I got to thinking about things that I’d thought that I’d never live to see again:

      1. Packers winning the Super Bowl (pre 90’s and Favre)

      2. Badgers going to the Rose Bowl (pre 90’s and pre-Barry Alverez)

      3.  A black president

      4.  Cubbies winning World Series

      5.  Vikings actually *WINNING* a Super Bowl??

      What are yours???

        FTP for the fourth.

        Vikings? Super Bowl? I can type it, but I could never say it aloud!

            Yeah, growing up in Minnesota, I gave them four chances.  Then when I moved to Wisconsin, I became a Packer fan, back when Lynn Dickey was the QB and they were awful.  It only could go up from there.

                Where did I say that?  I remember it, just not where.

                Speaking of where…..if you were my black notebook with a bazillion puzzle solves entered, where would you be?  It’s not with the rest of my stuff.  I had solved a puzzle a couple years back, and we might just be near it tomorrow.  I don’t want to do the work again!!!!  (I suspect my book is in the girl cave, which is now sealed off in anticipation of painting the center room upstairs. It’s been like that for awhile…maybe some of the tape has fallen away?)

                  You just said it this past week on the book of Faces.

                    Oh, was that when the concept of gadgetry came up?

                    And I found my book.  I’d looked in the right place before, but it was just too buried by folded fabric remnants.  Shame on me for having a hobby other than caching to interfere! 😉

                    Congrats Mr. GT.  You must excited that you are almost done with another step.  I thought about you a lot yesterday wandering those country roads.  I hope all is going the best as expected for you and your family.

                    I am having a pretty good morning.  I am sitting in my pajamas having a ham and egg sandwich.  I just finished logging some caches.  I removed the Halloween decor from outside yesterday.  So, I was able to feed my birds.  They all seem thankful.  Sparrows, nuthatches, and a few chickadees have visited thus far.

                    Bird Story:

                    I was at St Norbert college this week.  I walked out a door and I had a robin fall from the sky about three feet in front of me.  I was a bit dumb founded.  Then, a red tail hawk swooped towards it.  Honestly, it more than spooked me seeing that large bird coming toward me.  I may have jumped and waived my hands in the air.  The hawk veered off…….thankfully.   The interesting part is that the women I was having the sales meeting with witnessed this as she was walking across campus.  She thought this was the funniest thing she has ever seen.  This woman has been a bit cold and tough to work with and this incident had made her much more open to new ideas.  She teased she was going to try to get the security tape.  We walked out together and the Hawk was perched near where this happened enjoying his catch.  She went back and brought out her staff to see it.  A few said that they would have soiled themselves.  I should thank this hawk.
