~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...

[Jude58]

Geez Rava, so glad that your condo was spared. I have family in S. Carolina and I guess it was pretty bad, but at least they are ok, albeit without power.

Well, Mr. J tested positive for Covid yesterday. So far, I haven't shown any symptoms so keeping my fingers crossed that I don't get it!

24 more please...

5:07am in Alberta, I'll have 24 more please, and thanks...

Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

[abcowboy]

That's great news about your condo Rava, Helene sure wreaked havoc on other areas though.

Hopefully Mr J won't get too sick Jude, and that you'll stay healthy.

The leaves are turning and falling here as well Mulburry, I think fall is my favorite season because of the crisp cool mornings and pretty colors.

We're still plugging away with harvest dill, almost got the oats wrapped up yesterday but the last field, a small one, was still not ready so we'll switch to swathed canola today and see how that goes.

[Rava]

Good morning Cafe. Jude, I hope your hubby has a very slight case of covid and recovers quickly. Also hope it stays away from you. Dill the food truck selections sound amazing. I would be all up in there! We made it down the coast with a few large downpours to deal with. No flooded streets thank goodness. These hurricanes are no joke and they said there is a 40% chance of another in the same location. YIKES! Well I hope everyone has a great Saturday. 24 more please and thank you.

[Ginger999]

Oats? I think that's what I'll have for breakfast! Thanks for the idea, ABC.

Jude, here's to hoping Mr J has a light case and you stay well!

Dill, what was your favorite food truck item?

I agree, fall is one of my favorites too. Hubby and I are starting to talk about selling down south. We are both kinda over it. We will see how this season goes and then decide. For what we pay in rent, we could rent homes for a couple months each winter to break things up and eliminate the stress of having something baking down there in the 120

Sorry about Mr. J, Jude. I hope his case is light and you don't get it!

Helene definitely blessed us with much needed rain. We got 3 inches yesterday. But it was a case of "be careful what you wish for..." Along with Helene came strong wind gusts as well as driving rain. We lost huge limbs from two trees in the yard and several good sized limbs from other trees. The power went out late afternoon yesterday and is still out. over most of the area. Our back up generator kicked in and got us thru the night, but no internet, so no TV for us last evening. This morning the Generator stopped working. Mr. D had to figure that one out. He said it was the battery, so he swapped it out with one he had that was lower power. So we had to go to the store to buy a battery. It was crazy in town! No power most places so no functioning traffic lights. It was pretty chaotic. We were happy to get back home!

24 more please and thank you.

[Jude58]

Geez Dill, that sounds like some crazy weather! We were supposed to get some rain from Helene yesterday but it turned out to be a beautiful day. My sister and step son in S. Carolina still have no power, but at least they are ok, which I am grateful for.

Mr. J started to feel better yesterday, so let's hope that he is over the worst of it.

Another 24 hours of peace please...

[abcowboy]

5:14am in Alberta, 24 for me and everyone else who needs them please, and thanks...

[abcowboy]

I think it's time for some breakfast...

[abcowboy]

Good to hear that Mr J feels better already Jude, hopefully you don't come down with it. Does you sister have any idea when the power will be restored?

Sounds like quite the day you had dill, that's a lot of rain and a long time to be without power. Is it back up and running yet? Then comes the cleanup of those damaged trees...

Sounds like you're trying to simplify your life Ginger, definitely not a dad thing to do as we get older.

[Rava]

Good morning Cafe. Wow Dill sounds like a crazy day. Hopefully the generator is working now or even better your power is back on. This storm was crazy. So many people in so many different states really had a lot of damage. I wish there was something our country could do to shoot something into the clouds and make the storms less intense. Sounds like a science fiction movie. Jude, glad the hubby is feeling better. Ginger, I understand about the idea of renting being easier. We through that at first too but the rentals got to be quite expensive for what we wanted and we are not picky people. I guess no one takes care of a place like you take care of your own. I wish you luck with whatever you decide. Cowboy thanks for the great breakfast. Today we have breakfast with grand daughter then start our 7 hour drive home. Hopefully will be back by dark. Wishing everyone a great and sober day. 24 more please!

[Ginger999]

Rava, when you say home, do you mean Florida? Sorry. I must have missed something.

Thanks for breakfast, ABC. Dill, sorry you're left with work after the storm passing through. Sounds like it was a doozy. Hopefully, the power comes back on today!

Stay well, Jude! I'll take another day of freedom
