NWI INGO General Thread #27 - Fresh Pink Air On US-30 smells like...

[Ballstater98]

RV vacation adventure is officially booked for this summer. Got the 411 tour today. Now to hammer out the travel details.

 

[Ballstater98]

Spring things accomplished. Yard things, Dyna Traps up and running (already bugs are out), deck furniture cushions out, bird feeder areas taken care of, dismantled his sand pit and spread the sand in some low spots (soil and seed to come), rattle canned some metal end tables, RV trip secured, and Bass Pro Easter Bunny pics taken (not sure how many years of this are left).
Kid will be off to a friend's house tomorrow, so I can finish organizing the garage at the least.

Good morning to all the good folks south of US30

Also, I wish the normal unhealthy smells, odors and butt crack stank to our northern neighbors in the barren gang infested Jedi-land that lies to the north of southern county productive lands of milk and honey.

If the skies are clear tonight watch for the Northern Lights. We had a major (G4 level/Severe) solar event that will potentially bring the visibility of Northern Lights as far south as Northern Indiana, Northern Illinois and Northern Iowa. It is large enough it could also, all day and into the evening, screw up satellite communications, Ham radio, disrupt GPS used by cell phones and navigation devices, etc. It actually hit us yesterday, but continues through today.

I got to see amazing displays twice while living from a kayak for 10 days at Isle Royal National Park. The most
amazing natural phenomenon I've ever seen. It was phenomenally phenomenal.

I'm still here.

Where are you headed with the rv ? And same on the Easter bunny.. we almost didn’t go this year but decided last minute to go to cabelas. you should plant some clover in the bare spots much better than grass unless you’re one of the crazy perfect looking lawn people then I apologize for the outlandish suggestion. I need to get in my garage too… have a bunch of stuff to sell before my car will fit…

coming back with something that is quiet????? What variety?

I would love to see that. There are two things I really want to see but you really can’t plan a vacation for…… northern lights and Death Valley fighter jets….

If anyone is thinking of watching the remake of Roadhouse, don't! Watched it last night and it's awful

did you think some of the fight scenes were odd? I couldn't put my finger on it until the wife said she saw a whole thing on how they did it with cgi so no one would get hurt. Then it made sense. Backgrounds not quite right and such. Green screen use.

RV: into a loop out west for 2 weeks. Wall Drug, Corn Palace, Mount Rushmore/Crazy Horse, Badlands (relatives), Glacier National Park, Yellowstone, Utah, Colorado (relatives) & Rockies game, Kansas City (relatives)...various adventures along the way.



Clover: I have a path in my woods that is shaded that was torn up by deer and heavy rains last year. This is out back so it doesn't need to be pristine like the actual yard.

I post very little political stuff on the book of many faces.

I just got a "community standards" warning of a possible violation for this post:



After the violation I immediately took a screen shot to preserve the post.

Not sure how this could violate community standards. Unless it is double standards.

Good thing I didn't use any unsafe 'trigger' words like fairness, integrity or decency.

Can someone please take me to the little safe room that plays soft soothing music, has dim lighting and supplies kittens, puppies and oreo cookies with non-dairy milk so my fragile nerves can achieve a state of calm?

Wind Cave, Jewel Cave and Mammoth site are very cool in the Black Hills also.

Renting out of LaPorte for $250 +/-per day with insurance and some added perks. Since we're renting for 2 weeks, they added some things like an early a.m. pick up time.

so by doing this so early you are dooming all of us to another blast of arctic air lasting for 2 weeks?

People don't like their hypocrisy pointed out.

Mom is at Colonial nursing rehab now (room 128), and she took a few steps this morning. Their PT guy is excellent, and he'll have her moving around in no time.

Clearly true.

As my graphic showed, "Free speech for me, not for thee"

And NBC has a history of one sided media 'reports' and sticking with unsubstantiated stories such as the Russian collusion hoax that their anchors pushed. I saw a story saying that the upper management are meeting today to decide if they will keep the former GOP official as a commentator of, conversely, if they will allow their, clearly biased, 'talent' tell them how to run a purported news company.
