I spoke to Patwi earlier today and he’s doing well, just a little overloaded on the Internet so he’s taking a break… I was putting up a very large pot roast I cooked earlier in the week, and it didn’t take much for Ivan to drag his carcass into the kitchen for goodies.

A pup has his priorities! Good that he is feeling good enough to focus on food!

OOOH OOOOH -- Gotta pass this on:

My grandling Wolfie wanted to come up with his serious squeeze (Madison AKA: Maddie) to let her shoot the crossbow. Maddie could not come to our Thanksgiving dinner, and missed out on it.

I had the firing range all set up by the time they got to the Chateau. Sat her down in a chair in the shade, set up the shooting sticks, and placed the beast down in front of her.

I 'splained how to look in the scope, and to put the crosshairs on the red bullseye on the target 30 feet away. She finally got the idea, and so I charged the thing and put a bolt/arrow in the slot.

She's looking very carefully, shifting on the chair, and I tell her to push the safety off. She looks down the scope...

Fires. And my $15 arrow goes to the right of the target backstop and digs into the lawn. That thing will never be found. A crossbow bolt can travel 30 feet through roots and loam if it hits nearly horizontal. And it did. I called everybody off from looking for it.

Set it all up again. She put it right in the center of the red dot bullseye. YAY. Wolfie shot the beast a dozen times, too. Fun time. She took her "Shoot 'n See" targets home.

High point of the day. I realized that the pair could be: "Mad-Wolf"!!

I'm from the south. It has always been Breakfast, Dinner and Supper.
Guess the lunch and dinner thing is a northern thing A.

Thanks for giving me a chance to add a modicum of levity while pulling your chain brother!

Kool! The world needs more wolves. Leave us not forget who gifted us dogs in their own image!!

My oldest grandson's ex-wife is named Madeline, and she was a wrath with a German long sword but chose not to stick around, so the " Mad Wolf" position is certainly open.

i'm from the south, breakfast, and lunch. now here is where i differ, dinner is when you go out with the wife/kids and or friends, and where we ate most of the time at the kitchen bar. supper is when everybody sets down to the table and eats a home made meal. my family called it the supper table. only other time it was used was to do homework.

 

[WeedHopper]

You must be from a big city to call Dinner Lunch in the south.

Wife and I passed our 45th anniversary yesterday, .. it's all good .. it made me think of how that daily downpour from the world had layered a crustily crunchy outlook from me concerning most of the human population. .... then I wandered into longing for that preteen. wide eyed and virtually all accepting view I had enjoyed of the world at that early point in my life .. . Life is good guys

Balance is what my wife is to me ..

congratulations Amigo!
