  2. I thought he’d say Jesus. But he said, “Hunt.” So, I’m over here filling eggs with candy and dosh for my 25 year old to find tomorrow morning. It has to be gummy candy because he doesn’t eat chocolate. Some of it’s sour. A few $1 bills and two $5 eggs. I love Easter!

  3. Spent the day working on the tractor. Made some good progress, I ran the engine for a couple hours a while back, today I put it back in the tractor. The remaining major step is installing the hydraulic tank and cooler, they did not come with this tractor and may take some finessing to install.

  4. I have a story to tell. Back when I taught 7th grade, I had a student who wore Playboy bunny logo clothes to school. She had earrings, t-shirts, velour track suits, shoes, you name it... But the dress code said no, so the assistant principal would make the girl change or go home every time. Well, the girl’s father was fed up with the discipline, and I happened to cross paths with him and the AP arguing in the hallway outside the office. He said, “What difference does it make? That could be the Easter bunny?” So, the principal stops me and asks, “What do you think? Is that bunny the same as the Easter bunny?” I said, “I can see that. Easter coincides with Springtime, a time of regeneration and fertility. I think that’s why we have eggs and rabbits, right? Who knows? You could be a grandpa before the end of next year!” His face totally changed. It hit him like a ton of bricks. And she never wore Playboy bunny clothes to school again.

  9. Today we had all five grandchildren come by. Mrs. TK had gotten everything together over the course of the week. We had an Easter Egg hunt, where the grandchildren found the plastic eggs Mrs. TK and I had 'hidden' around the yard. Then they played in the yard blowing and chasing bubbles, and played on the swingset, where I had the pleasant duty of pushing one grandchild after the another on the various swings we have. Then we had lunch, which was everyone's favorite: Mac 'n Cheese and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Then they colored and decorated eggs Mrs. TK had hard boiled ahead of time. My grandson taught me how a Transformer changed from a car to a robot and back. When one of the arms came off, he handed it to me and asked me to fix it. Which, of course, I did. Constant motion and bedlam, except for a few minutes when they were all eating lunch. They've all left to go back to their respective homes, and our house is quiet again... It was great fun!

  11. ...on Wednesday. It was more than a year since my last one. Like Longjohn, it was a bit long and unruly. Unlike LJ, I said "take it all off!". The poor hairdresser checked with me and her boss about 6 times to be sure I meant what I said. I'd say I went from hair below my shoulders to maybe a #4 or so. I was the only one in the shop for almost the whole haircut. She called it coming in for a "Covid cut" When we were finishing, a woman came in to get her first cut in months, and said she had been cutting her own hair during covid, so that's why it looked all uneven. Feels good to have my old hair back. I liked the wildness but not likely to redo it anytime soon

  21. The 1964 Kennedy half-dollars were silver (90%) until 1965. My parents collected a lot of 1964. The melt value is around $9.00 for the silver alone. Coins in good condition may get $12 to $20. Dealers will offer less because they want to make a profit.

  24. I guess I'll do yard work this morning A few days ago I was thinking about heading down to Alabama for a track day at little talladega with my son. Then spend a few days helping him with the house but now he's at the point of sit and wait for the roofers. As for track time at Road America the schedule has 17 open track days and if I do a demonstration I can add 3 more days. So there will be other opportunities to get some track time in. Those 20 days on track doesn't include the time that we are there as spectators.

  35. My birthday cake was made and decorated by several of my nieces. They chose gummy dinosaurs for part of the toppings. They were tasty, and there are some leftover that I will snack on. It being Easter weekend, I also got a lot of easter candy as part of my "please don't get me anything expensive gift request". Chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate. Life is good that way!

  36. You can find what they are really selling for on eBay. My FIL had an extensive coin collection including many proof sets. He would have been disappointed at all the more they gained in value. We still have them, I looked up the value of each coin a couple years ago and the total was only around $1,400.
