    Watched the Independence Day fireworks at Big Cedar Lodge in Branson on Monday. I am just trying not to ruin the photo.

    Out for dinner at a conference on Lake of the Ozarks this evening with a half dozen guys we are eating at the bar. I am buying dinner and we are having a good time I order up another round of drinks and the dork looking bartender forgot a beer he was walking away and I said Wyatt you forgot a beer. The other bartenders erupted in laughter as did my group. He was a little hurt and said my name is not Wyatt. He got a 30% tip to help fix his feelings.

    Different person brought us our food and all drinks and beers were poured in front of us. It was funny and all was good.

    We were at trumansburg camping and hiking this weekend. While at the lake there was a bunch of little kids so my daughter decided to make their day and take out a paddle board while singing Moana songs lololol. They loved it[​IMG]

    My granddaughters would be screaming with delight to see and hear her at their beach.
    She’s amazing to think of and do that for kids. You raised her well!!

    I wish I could post videos here. My grandson on his electric JD going out to bring the cows in, zero fear he even cuts one off and turns it. The battery in his tractor is not stock.

    Hey, I got off work early to extend my 3 day weekend. Wasn't expecting to be sitting in the emergency room waiting to get 10 stitches in my finger after I sliced it wide open. Did also learn something interesting while I was there. 4 o'clock on a Thursday afternoon, finds a lot of cops and deputy sheriffs with criminals also waiting to go to the emergency room. Apparently, criminals' idea of 3 day weekend is much different than mine. They however also like getting an early start on it like me.

    I have to share because well for me at least just too funny. Back ground, hubby and his Dad twins just 23 years apart.. right down to facial hair.
    My kids do not look like family members at all and really do not look like us either. Sons boys are the same except his eldest looks like his twin just 27 year apart. Today his mom proved it
    LOL.....
