First Cup Diner!
Re: First Cup Diner!
Yeah, me too Scott. It sure hits the spot this morning. Yesterday was a really nice busy fun day knife collecting with grand-daughter Brittney, picking up a few knives, helping get ready for the Sunday School Christmas program, and spending the rest of the day relaxing with Jane working a jig saw puzzle and watching Auction Kings on TV. Church in a few hours with a 65th anniv. party for some friends after and a fun small groups church meeting tonight. Have a great Sunday. ____Dave

Re: First Cup Diner!
Good Mornin’, Fellers!
We’re waking up in Titusville for the second morning. Hope my brother in law has the coffee ready.
We visited with Miss Joy,s dad at his smoke house demolition at the “Cracker Christmas” yesterday, way too many people in one spot! Lots of folks had interesting questions concerning meat preservation in the old days and Grandpa had a wonderful time visiting with folks from all over the world. One of the most interesting guest was a young Chinese researcher. She was so interested in the old Florida ways and how they actually were similar to her early life in China, she knew the steps involved in smoking meat successfully.
Y’all have a wonderful Sunday, we’ll be attending church with one of Joy’s sisters this morning.

Re: First Cup Diner!
Morning knifers, yestiddy turned out beautifully, got all my trash to the dumpster, put new battery terminals on the ole ford 3000 and she started right up, graded the son's driveway getting it ready for their new Volvo which is in route from Sweden. I'm caught up and should have nice day of rest. Boy this cuppa joe sure is good the man that made it sure knows his way around a Bunn, lets get another cup and solve the worlds problems. Yawl have a good'un.
Re: First Cup Diner!
Trace that's a beautiful sky, but I'm not sure it offers a very good forecast. Be safe in your travels.
Church for me in a bit. Got to get a little more coffee surging through my veins before starting my morning breathing treatments. We have been blessed with an overnight visit from my oldest granddaughter, Abbi. She's up and stirring now so I can stop tiptoeing around.
J.P. Dave I sure hope you find that missing knife.

Re: First Cup Diner!
Hi, enjoying some coffee and watching the sun come up. Its 40 and headed to 58. Meeting with some friends after everyone gets outta church. That should be interesting. Now for the biggest decision of the day which knifes to carry today. Happy trails!

Re: First Cup Diner!
Mornin' guys.
That is a good photo and about the only tree in the panhandle can just be made out in the distance.
I am all scrubbed up and ready for meeting. I just got summoned to the kitchen to cook some hen fruit.
Hope you all have a good day today.

Re: First Cup Diner!
Good morning everyone!!! I'm up kinda early today. I finally have my appointment with the back specialist at the Texas Back Institute. I hope they are as good as their reputation, because I don't know where else to go. Anyway everyone have a blessed day and be safe wherever you are.

Re: First Cup Diner!
Good morning. Thanks Ray, Good picking Scott and Phil. Pray they doctors give you some good answers David. I'm just off to work on the cabin remodel. Some guys are coming today to patch up an old stone fireplace on the cabin. I'm not sure they will be able to work after today for a few days with the weather turning cold. I can't quite see tuck pointing stone at 15 below even tenting over the work area and running a torpedo heater. I'll be working inside with the furnace going. Jason and family are on their way back from Florida and I should be getting him back working with me Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm enjoying fondling my three knives from the show Saturday but my computer won't allow me to post pictures of them. I bought a new card reader yesterday because that's what the computer said was wrong but that didn't work either. My daughter-in-law is coming over to see if she can fix this old relic. It did this several weeks ago and she got it working but then it just quit again. I have a knife coming from Scott that I want to put with another one I have like it for the Matching knife thread for a picture but that isn't going to happen. I suppose it's about time to join the rest of the world with an updated computer and new server but we all know I don't like change. Have a great week and stay safe, especially you travelers. _____Dave
Re: First Cup Diner!
Good morning everyone, just saw a squirrel go by on the high line. Early squirrel gets the nut. Anyway the coffee is good and may need another cup. Not much planned today. Guess I'll be flying by the seat of my pants and a prayer. Have a good one!
David
Re: First Cup Diner!
Morning knifers, now listen to me Dave you are messing with my entertainment , I really enjoy your fine ole knives you need to get with the program so I don't miss any. Nothing much going here the weather's been outstanding for the last week or so, but the guessers are saying rain and turning much colder tonight. The sweetie pie and I are celebrating 52 years of wedded bliss today. I don't know how she's put up with me all these years. We've sure have been blessed, me especially. Gonna get another cuppa joe and contemplate that. Yawl have a good'un. Dm11 if he comes by my window he'll get a load off # seven shot.

Re: First Cup Diner!
BH, congratulation to you and condolence to you sweet bride. Don't know why they say yes in the first place or why they stay with us but thank the Lord they do. Apart from salvation marriage is the best thing that happened to me in this life and it sounds like you feel the same way. Happy for you and the Misses.

Re: First Cup Diner!
Good morning everyone
I have to sadly announce the demise (finally!) of Miss Rat, who was dumb enough to fall for the peanut butter. Thankfully, she was on the small side and showed no evidence of nursing anything.
I finally got to the swapmeet and picked up four knives, a full pack of PAL razor blades and Richards scissors.
Have a good and safe day everyone!

Re: First Cup Diner!
Congratulations, you have two years on Jane and I. Yeah, this computer is old and needs to get replaced but I keep spending my money on knives instead of upgrading my computer. I'm dying to show off the last ones I got and my latest, a knife from Scott should be coming tomorrow so I'm getting behind. Hope you have something nice planned for the bride to celebrate. ____Davebighomer wrote: ↑Mon Dec 09, 2019 2:14 pm Morning knifers, now listen to me Dave you are messing with my entertainment , I really enjoy your fine ole knives you need to get with the program so I don't miss any.
