Has anybody heard from or seen a posting from Wayne, these recent (since July 1's on "Hobo Jungle") days?
Wayne, are you okay?

I am just fine, Murph.

Between July 1st and July 21 I sold my house in Tucson, packed up, moved to Columbia, KY, got married, and moved into a little cabin in the woods with a burbling stream running through the front yard.

[E7]

Yeah, but did you do anything interesting/unusual?

[robert.]

did you self quarantine for 14 days. Did you see the Neowise comet?

[HONDO74]

Congratulations on getting re-married. And now you live in the woods in BEAR country.....

Congrat's! Hope that you also enjoy the change in environment from Tucson.

Yes, quite a change. Daughter lived north of Lexington for 3-4 years. Beautiful landscape, but it rained a lot, was very humid and she didn't care for that. Seemed to be a different mindset among the residents that she had a problem with too. It will be interesting to hear your take on KY.

Dang Wayne, that is going to be a tough one to top! And okay for Kentucky; they need something or someone to help move up from the bottom in rankings according to people living in Indiana. We still remember some of the questionable basketball coaches. Like that matters now! Spent parts of a week watching the 2020 NMRA X virtual convention. It was pretty good all things considered.

later.

Opened the tool shed and had a few ticks drop on me. There were ticks in Arizona but never had one on me.
Little suckers can't be brushed off. Had to pick them off before they sunk their heads into my skin.
Brought a couple on my clothes into the house.

New experience for me.

No quarantine. No comet, no horizon. I live in a holler.

Beats those black-widow spiders that lived in your shed back in Arizona!

Wayne, You need to check ALL over. Clothing is no impediment to those b*stards.

I spent about 3 days in Lexington back in '98. Beautiful country in that area. I also went to Fort Knox when I was a kid. I don't recall anything special about the base, but I think they just went in and leveled everything (the terrain) when they built the place. Couldn't get close to the depository.

PS: You're going to have to get rid of that cowpoke hat and get you a Hillbilly topper!

Wayne,

Congratulations on your marriage. Is she from Kentucky, the home of beautiful horses and fast women?
My wife is from Morehead, @ 60 miles east of Lexington on I 64. I lived in Morehead for 10 years and
spent much time in the hills and NEVER had a tick on me until I moved to Georgia.
