Peaches and Wiffle Ball: doug rr's Country Living Thread

[wease]

i look forward to more posts from doug, and if i'm being honest...i hope it morphs into a Funny Farm situation for him, where he gets to know the townsfolk all too well.

funny you should mention that...i ran into the neighbors today that we met last time we were here...they're around our age and quite nice..he's from london and she's a local...i was bringing in the trash can and they were driving up their driveway and stopped for a chat..they were headed down to seattle for the night to t-mobile park..home of the mariners..although they were not going to a mariners game...tonight the stadium is for motley crew, def leppard, joan jett and poison...they invited themselves over for drinks this weekend while our friends are here and they promised me a few bags of salt for when the snow comes...

i'm always leary of people who invite themselves over.

They at least bribed him with salt.

woke up early this morning because of the dog..just after sunrise i drove to the golf course to hit some balls..afterwards i stopped by the store to pick up a few bags of all purpose flour for bread and pizza dough..also bought a rack of spare ribs for saturday when friends arrive..taking the dog to the vet later today just to get his nails clipped..they are way too loud on the hardwoods

do you refrigerate your whole wheat? i do; i read it can spoil pretty quickly.

Mrs. Bam created one of these with the last round of blackberries that we picked

pretty much the same story as yesterday..the dogs were restless and awake around 530 am..i took them out, fed them, blah blah blah..my wife got up shortly after and made coffee..i went to hit balls at the course but the range is still closed until at least tomorrow..i hung out on the putting green for about 30 minutes and chipped a bit..went to store down the road and bought the 2 local newspapers and a donut..came home to read the papers and soon i have to vacuum and dust for guests arriving tomorrow..

1. do you recycle or repurpose the newspapers?

2. do you read the entire paper or specific sections?
