I got a 'Flyer' in the mail about the Casinos reopening, and a 'promotion' for a 'Free Buffet' (usually costs $24.99) to lure me in. Hmmm, after thinking about it for maybe a minute, I figure that might NOT be a Good Move at this point in time. I'll let some of the more 'Die-Hards' be the first to crowd together and see how that works out. Don't get me wrong, I like to gamble, but this is one I'm going to pass on. :(

Nothing wrong with being wise.

I have one son with two kids, a pool, and a Tennis court. They're suppose to have a get-together, got an invite, could go swimming, play Ping Pong, eat, drink, and vie for Chess champion? But again, re-thought my position, and figured I should sit this out too. (Too many kids running around)

So what's YOUR Plans?

Wow!
Maybe I'm over reacting? There's going to be a dozen kids there, who knows where they've been?
I'm still in hibernation mode. I even bought a Slow Cooker (Crock Pot) to cook more at home.
Well, have fun at the Picnic, hope all goes well.

I’ll try to hit the cemeteries to clean and decorate the markers. Plenty of them. Typically, it’s an all day endeavor
 
Barbecuing!

Michigan governor bent the knee and opened a couple places up while the rest of the state is locked down till mid-June. My area is swarmed with out of towners. Having our area be an economic sacrificial lamb is exactly what I wanted for my birthday. How did the Governor know? I am livid about the mess and staying home for a good month.

Beat you to it. My Mom wanted to do that on the Saturday before Mother's day. It's an annual family event. We have lots in 3 different cemeteries all in the same county that we care for.

I appreciate people who still care for and remember their dead! I salute you Sir!
 
Very very very little special is going on.... my wife works in Seattle tomorrow and after she is going to get some Thai take-away and meet Super Woke Daughter at a park.

Otherwise great food and great drink and indica with kief and great sex and hopefully good conversation here is on the agenda.

The Every Day Awesome

I might take a Ride to New Orleans, just to see if the French Quarter has re-opened, but that would be about the extent of it ... just a Ride.

Same to you. We also have 3 cemeteries. All spread out, but we get there. I think we’re the last generation in my family to carry out this tradition. Maybe some hope for my daughter, however.

Because people are so mobile, not many live in the same place they grew up. But I’m 5th generation SW Idaho, so we can still take care of the markets. By now, I can almost find them blindfolded.

If you do, drop by Acme Oyster House or Drago’s (in Metarie). Both owned by cousins of mine. I haven’t talked to any of them about their closures or re-openings

"CHARGRILLED OYSTERS
Sizzling, chargrilled oysters saturated in an herb butter sauce, topped with a special blend of cheese."

These things are delicious!

(they have/had one in Covington, closer, less crowded, and easy parking)
