Hi guys. Hope you're having a great day!
I am officially visited out! Last night was the memorial service. The church was packed! We had 150 programs made and they ran out! I got to see so many people, some I haven't seen since high school! There was a visitation/reception afterwards and it was truly wonderful. Think wake, minus alcohol.
There were so many great stories.
Today, we drove 2 hours south to bury her ashes by my grandparent's graves. This time, there were around 30 people there, mostly extended family and some of her friends from way back when. Afterwards, we went to my cousin's, for more food, more conversation, etc. I"m in a much better space than I was before. Now I'm ready to get back to normality.
Y'all have a great day! I'll keep you posted; right now I'm planning on driving back home on Sunday.

Reidus, I'm glad to hear you are hanging in there! You've been in my thoughts. I understand the visited out. We had 250 people show up for Dad's service, and I was exhausted afterwards. We had a big reception at the house afterwards and shot fireworks over the lake, my Dad was kind of a pyro, lol.
Those stories you got to hear will be treasures forever. I learned so many things about my father that I never knew.
Big hugs to you!

Looky looky
I am loving the flower child -- I can't believe how small that donut is -- it is soooooooooo cute! But it still cools the vapor on my Buzz ProBut it gives me lots of warm vapor on my 18490 REO!
Mike, I'm on the fence on that Trippy you like -- it's on the larger size for me believe it or not
Shoot me a PM - maybe we can work something out
I can't wait until mine gets here so I can post some pics. These are beautiful.
Morning Tripsters ... how goes it?
DD wants to take riding lessons, so I have a whole new category to buy stuff in!!!
Hey Pain! Hey Wharf and Sashwa ...
Sash - it's fun to look around eBay for deals. DD hasn't even set her bum on a horse yet, so I am going to get her used boots and a new helmet, have to protect her egg. LOL
I asked Kami about brands, since I haven't ridden in about 40 yrs, and I think a used pair of really good boots should hold her for a bit.
Oh, and I can shine some boots! (thank you US Navy!)
Having owned, raised, ridden, rodeoed on and bought and sold dozens and dozens of horses, (buried a bunch too), I have come to one very hard and often painful lesson... they are large animals with a leg at each corner and should be avoided at all costs.
Where as the old adage; 'The outside of a horse is good for the inside of man', is indeed true, a corresponding adage should be; 'The outside of a horse WILL rearrange the inside of man... on a frequent basis.'
Admittedly I'm not the brightest crayon in the box and some might question why it took three decades to learn that multiple broken backs, more fractured ribs than the Mars Company has M&M's, broken feet from horses that are smarter than me who figured out that stomping down on boot encased toes will give them a respite from being saddled... for several days, humans apparently taste like alfalfa, not chicken, and a free meal is always a good thing to them, roping steers at 25 mph is always the best time to show off bucking ability, especially if stock contractors are in attendance and the absolute ideal time to refuse to get into a trailer is when you're running late to pick up a date after a day of roping. Ah, the joys of horse ownership.
Lest we forget, dallying a rope around the saddle horn whilst imitating a Roman Emperor and giving the thumbs down sign at gladiatorial games is a sure and efficient way to lose that particular digit. (Anyone who has rodeoed long enough has a large collection of friends that all go by the same nickname... stubby.)
Do I still wrangle these potential man-mangling creatures? I am happy to say that I have learned there are other areas of life that one can use to turn a large fortune into a very small fortune. Older, much older, and wiser, just a little wiser, I got rid of all the hay burners, (after you break your back enough times it starts to hurt), turned the pasture into a motocross track and now sit on the deck with a glass of scotch and watch my grandson and his friends break their bones. I get a perverse sense of satisfaction from that.
There is one major drawback from my years in the rodeo arena however; whereas from a cowboy's point of view 8 seconds is a great ride... ladies do not necessarily share that point of view.
(All in all I wouldn't change a minute of my foray into the world of the equine species... well.maybe the very last lingering consequence.)

Deli, turn the bp up if you want a warmer vape.
Thanks Sashie, I've tried that but then it scorches my juice
Morning Delilah how are you ?
Good Mr. Awesome - Just back from the post office -- I hate when I have to make several PO runs but it's the nature of the beast as a TrippyTipKin
How's Mr. Awesome? I can't wait until mine gets here so I can post some pics. These are beautiful.
I know! I keep looking for it
HOpefully it will be soon! Thanks! 
Jack - we are getting DD into this ... 
and maybe a little of this down the road ...
Definitely no ropes, no stock animals, and NO Cowboys.

Blu - yes, I love lil lilac! It is absolutely adorable on my Buzz Pro. I can't get over how small the donut is and yet I wish it were a tad tinier! Yeah, over an inch not so good for my vape I want to make an exception for this donut with all my heart

In fact, I have a confession to make 
My quest to find the tiniest donut made me do it!
