Weekend Roll Call 10-15-22
Posted: Sat Oct 15, 2022 8:52 am
Im not normally much of a fan of 1 man bands,
but this guy seems to have a knack for it.
We had a great time at the lake last weekend. I never
got around to making a full blown pet but here are a few pics...
The view from lookout above Bagnell Dam.

One of the first things we did, was take a heli tour.
First time I have been in once since leaving the Army.
These things are basically flying lawn mowers, but
they get the job done.

I didn't shoot vid, but lots of others do.
A couple of pics I did snap though ...

The pic above of the mansion is typical of another 1000
or so multi million dollar places that have been built
in the last 20 years. It's mind blowing. It reminds me
of Miami Beach.
Just as there is no shortage of palaces at the lake, there is
no shortage of good grub .... Breakfast after the Friday night bender.

Dinner from a local BBQ Joint ...

Not the best I ever had, but decent. The main reason for
going there however, was the name caught my eye ...

Yes indeed, the owner is a clone. He named it after the
classic "wobbly boot," line from Elk that he heard back in
the day.
Lots of other places with quirky names to be found at the lake also.
BIg DIcks Halfway Inn - no pic
Marty Byrd's - no pic for us Ozark fans
The Blue Cat- also for us Ozark fans...

and my personal fave ....

The last pic is just a random pic I snapped from the
southern end of the lake. Less developed, much quieter and
peaceful. Fall is just starting to settle in here in FOC we are
considering making this lake trip an annual visit.

I have not received any official word ..... but after 4 weeks now,
I am going to officially drop a tombstone on .net. From all appearances,
Russ hasn't done a damn thing to correct whatever the problem is,
but he didn't really seem to do a damn thing for the last few years,
so I guess this should not really be any surprise.
All totaled, a few of us may have migrated here but it looks like the rest
are lost at internet sea. No loss really. Those left behind were trumptard
fucksticks. Good punching bags for sure, but utterly worthless otherwise.
I thought our boy d-town was onboard here, but after getting whacked in
the head a couple of times with boat oars from a couple of folks here,
he seems to have lost his grip and washed away in the waves.
WHERE YA AT d-town???
MIZZOU has a Saturday off so they are safe from losing another one today.
I may try and catch another game this evening, but the evening weather
looks like it may be a perfect night hang around the firepit.
Tomorrow I will be glued to the tv watching Chiefs/Bills in a likely
AFC title game preview. I have so much I could say about the horrible
state of the NFL and the ridiculous rules they have enacted for QB's but I
just don't have the time nor the energy to waste the key strokes.
Gym, grill biz and an eye doc appt for new peepers on the docket for today ...
Happy Weekend, Y'all.
