Trials of a woodpusher: Adventures in chess, backyard gardening, and maybe whisker chopping

Hopefully the ladies do not find any blueberry patches.

Remember, no more than a dry 2-litre bucket of blueberries each. To eat more could be calamitous.

Cape Breton is beautiful …. when it’s not raining


And now that we have arrived at the cabin we booked, I can let my hair down. I’m just drinking the wine

Yep, four glasses ought to do it. Beautiful lake!

Finally back at base from 2 days in Cape Breton. Beautiful country but a LOT of driving.

Looking forward to grabbing a shave after showering when the ladies are done in the bathroom. I last shaved 5:30am yesterday and am sporting 40 1/2 hours of growth…

Oh, that'll feel good!

Indeed!

When my wife saw me this morning, she said she was happy to have her young husband back instead of that “old man.”

This morning’s shave was more a 2-pass cleanup than a normal shave, but was still meh-velous nonetheless.

Sam is back to harem ready.

 

[woodpusher]

I can’t handle one! What would I ever do with a harem?

Correspondence courting?

Almost time to head back home as we plan on hitting the road bright and early at about 7am tomorrow morning.

Bright and early?! 7am is late, my friend! Before sunrise is early.

 

[woodpusher]

The ladies outnumber me 3:1 ….. 7am is early

 

[Graybeard57]

Have a safe drive home, Sam.

 

[woodpusher]

That’s job #1

A 5:30am shave to start the day off on the right foot and just woke the ladies a few minutes ago. Just like Remo Williams, our adventure continues.

Safe travels!

15 hours on the road (counting gas and food breaks) and we are in Quebec at the hotel waiting for pizza and wings to arrive. Except for the heavy rain and crazy close lightning for the past 3 hours, it was an excellent day on the road.

 

[woodpusher]

Our hotel bathroom stinks to high heaven!!!! Whazzupwtdat?!?!??!?




Oh, wait a sec
The ladies can’t blame me; they should have gotten up first
