Return of the Cruising Bunny's....

Looks like they will be getting a lot of rain and temperatures in the low 60s, K2 but it will still be better than what they left behind in MI.
Here, today, it is a very comfortable 76 degrees- just perfect for sitting outside and catching up on my reading.
There are several arcades in the area that have slot machines but the nearest true casino is about an hour or more drive away in Brighton near Lake Okeechobee. At least some of those arcades appear to have closed since last year so I think that many were far less successful than the owners expected them to be.
Just checked the movies currently showing at the local AMC theater complex and there was nothing that I would care to see, so I guess we are limited to watching TV as our entertainment source. At least Blue Bloods will be new tonight.
All the arcades have closed as they were not legal. Her in St Lucie county a few have tried to reopen and they have all been shut down and the owners and manager have all been arrested.

Lee: IF Thursday's post are GONE.... does that mean we get to call today THURSDAY and NOT FRIDAY??? :emoticon 0105 wink:

Went to our Nephew's Bar and had the best Perch Dinner while sitting at the BAR! Gotta love being one of the regulars throwing back a Bud-Lite! Ha Ha. Nephew always TRIES to pay our bill and I told him that "we're here to support your new venture and not to put you in the poorhouse". He's a good guy for trying.


Bill: Yup, I saw that it's suppose to be raining the next couple of days. I'm sure the kids will find something to do at an inside venue. There's always the HUGE aquarium.

Out of here. You all have a safe and fun WEEKEND!
It will be 19F to start here in our neighborhood and WINDY. Art cancelled his bike ride! (Thank goodness)

We had a SKUNK that must have decided to UNLOAD somewhere in the backyard close to the house. I had to put the ceiling fan on here in the family room where I fell asleep on the couch watching a late show! I even opened the back door to the yard to verify the horrific smell. YUP … it was a Skunk.
And I bet both Tony and BB are laughing their heads off over this post. Damn, I miss them both so much!

Okay, off to bed.

"I feel considerably more rested and ready to take on a hard day of relaxing." That pretty well covers it for me too this morning, Bill. Oh the rigors of retirement.

Nothing odd or interesting jumped into our grocery cart yesterday, K2. We apparently didn't apply ourselves. Gobs of Valentines day candy was selling for 1/2 price. Gotta make room for those chocolate bunnies.

Speaking of which, you seem to be turning into the Candyman, Lee.

Cool looking plantation-shutters, K2. Do they also go up and down? I too wonder where all our dust comes from.

How weird, ALL of Thursday's posts are missing from the Bunny Board. Once again.......the magic of electronics.

Great tune to start the day Dave. Thank you.
For fear of sounding like an old fart we just don’t have all round entertainers like that anymore, do we. Before one of you smart cookies says anything, I guess I sound like an old fart because I am one. And not the kind that leaves gifts in Kathie’s garden.
Be safe today everyone.

Good morning. For us today will mainly be sunny with rain coming in late afternoon. And tomorrow is supposed to be rain all day.

Because of the rain to be in Daytona NASCAR moved the ARCA race from today to last night after the truck race, they will be showing it at 1:30 this afternoon. Not sure if they will be able to race the Xfinity race today or not.

All have a great day.

Thanks for leaving the light on, but whole stole the chocolates off my pillow?

Dave, was good chatting with you the other day & even better to hear your procedure went well & you can see again!

Kathy, your skunk story made me chuckle, only a city girl would need to open the back door to see if the smell was a skunk or not.

Mike, nice to see you found your way to the new hutch.

Lee, the state of Florida really needs to add you to the Christmas card list in Thanks for all the $$$ you pump into our economy during your visit!

Bill, that is great news that Kevin doesn't need surgery! I have a feeling he won't be planning any more jet ski rides though.

Spent the last couple weeks trying to get caught up on projects around here & at my sisters, only problem with that is it seems like as soon as one project is done another one pops up that I didn't plan on. I did finally get Jane's huge overgrown Crepe Myrtle tree trimmed back. It had never been trimmed & was starting to grow into the power & cable lines than run into her house. I still have a few more base trunks to take down as there are about 35-30 of them instead of the 1-3 there should be. But at least for that I won't be reaching over my head with the electric chain saw.

Lent has arrived & church activities are in full swing! We did have to cancel choir practice & Sunday morning choir for a couple weeks due to illness. 7 of the 15 choir members were sick, some with covid & a couple with flu like symptoms. We did manage to put together a short song for the Ash Wednesday service with 6 of us able to sing.
And that's about it from gloomy Belleview! My friend Connie from Deltona was planning to come for a visit this weekend, but with the bad weather predicted she decided it wasn't a good idea. She was going to be driving by herself thru country back roads so I don't really blame her. Of course as of now (11:30) we've barely had a sprinkle, but you just never know.
Have a great day all!

I hoped that this light would help our Karen find her way back to the hutch.
So HAPPY to hear from you. You’ve been missed.

Welcome back to the hutch, Karen, and thanks for catching us up on your activities during your absence. You definitely qualify as our official Energy Bunny. Kevin's jet ski days are definitely over and I suspect that after what happened to his dad, it will be quite a while before Brandon gets on one again. Sorry to hear about the outbreak of sickness among your choir members. Seems that covid is raising its ugly head again which is not something we are pleased to hear.
Thanks for the information about the arcades, Nancy. For a while a year or two ago, it seemed that every strip mall in almost every town in this part of Florida had an arcade. Regardless of whether or not they were legal, I wondered how they could all survive.
Wonder what caused Thursday's posts to
mysteriously disappear? Was it something that we wrote that offended the powers that be? If so, what will they do when they read about K2's skunk?

Thanks for t he song Dave, I would love to be able to dance to that song again.
Hi Karen.
We got about 3 inches of snow after midnight last night and it was supposed to quit snowing after midnight. Fairfield was on top of things and all of the roads are clear. It is supposed to get pretty cold here the next 4 or 5 days then get up inito the 60s. I can live with that. Ir really doesn't make much difference, I dont stick ny nose out the door when it gets cold.
There hasn't been an arcade here for years, don't know if people lost interest in them or they are illegal here.
Welcome to the old farts club Lee.

Welcome Home I Missed U GIF by Bells and Wishes
You were missed Karen.
Lee: Your new ‘light’ did the trick!

Karen: Wow you sure were a busy bunny! Glad you got that shrub down to a decent level.
Bummer on all the illnesses at church. Hope you don’t catch anything.
That SKUNK was gross. Our neighbor 3 doors away has a huge deck and it has a few areas that the skirting has openings and I bet he had all kinds of Critters living under there! Our lawn man lives on the other side if the creek facing that house and had seen Ground Hogs going in and out.

Feel bad about all the rain Florida is getting. If it makes you feel any better Lee…. it’s 14F Real Feel here tonight.

Mike:
If you can’t dance to the tunes Dave posted, you can sit and TAP YOUR FEET! Good exercise for the leg muscles!

Back to watching the 2 rivalry Michigan Univ’s playing basketball game. GO GREEN!

You made my day, KC. You've been missed terribly. Heck, YOU are the reason that The Bunny Board is at its' current location. And we can speak our minds without "Big Brother" saying "Oh NO you can't".

I see that, as always, you have so much energy to take care of projects and helping other people. You remain the Angel of Belleview. That Covid & Flu is once again raising their ugly heads. Keep that hand sanitizer with you at all times. Hoping you're up to date on all your vaccinations.

In spite of what my brain tells me that it was a while ago, just last week at this time it was Super Bowl Sunday. I still think that the only reason it had the all-time top viewership of ANY program ever broadcast is because of Taylor Swift.

You are lucky Mike in having all those years dancing with Fay. I have NEVER been a dancer. The best I can do is wiggle to the beat. Anything more than that, and I'd just be embarrassing myself.

Lee; Say it loud, "I'M AN OLD FART, AND I'M PROUD!"

I'm curious K2.......Is Pepe Le Pew still out in your neighborhood looking for love? :)

Wet dog. Wet old fart.
I feel bad for families who have sunk (pun intended) their savings into a weekend at Disney World.
Life can be short. Dance like nobody is watching.

Good morning. Well it has been raining but not real hard and so far we have 3/4 inch and of course it is to rain all day.

They have already called the Daytona 500 for today, it will run tomorrow at 4. So the Xfinity race is at 11 am , so we will have a full day of racing.

Don't know if we will go out to lunch today or not.


All have a great day.

Wishing you all a good day. It's 22F/Cloudy with a Real Feel of 14F, because of the intense wind gusts. Beats snow any day.


Lee: I do have to agree with you about the families dumping THOUSANDS of dollars to see Disney this week and walking around in the chilly rain. Spring break time is starting in most school systems and not sure you could convince your kids to skip going to Disney if it's been planned for over a year. Hoping by Monday things get drier.

NO SMELLS from the SKUNK! Whew. I think he moved on!



What's a day without a revelation from the EX-Pres. Now he's got a GoFund Me acct that is racking up money by the minute. Some woman started it and you can't believe how much money some folks are dumping into it. The funny thing is that nowhere does it say that she is really donating it to him. Hard to believe GoFund Me allows these kind of posts. I guess there are enough Minon's in the USA that kiss his feet and love him. I did get a hoot out of all the Michiganders that were lined up OUTSIDE for HOURS in the OPEN FREEZING 14F degree and lower weather yesterday in Waterford, MI to see him. When they opened up the venue (a AIRCRAFT MEDAL HANGER without HEAT) they all piled into it and were still freezing. Trump had GLOVES on during the entire rally. CRAZY NUTS people.

$247,230 raised of $355,000,000 goal. This is the GoFund Me total as of now.

The UGLY TENNIS SHOE that the Orange Man is selling for $400 a pair is sold out. They said the RESALE of the shoe is now at $1,000. People where are your minds??

I can't believe I've wasted this much time on this subject. Forgive me for I have SINNED on a SUNDAY.


Out of here for now. You all enjoy your day.

sucker born every miute, nuff said
I think you and PT Barnum underestimated the number and the frequency, Mike. Hard to believe that there are so many who have drunk his KoolAid. He has made Jim Jones look like a piker.
As Nancy has reported, the rains have arrived and while it isn't raining hard at the moment, it is constant so I see no reason to be venturing out of doors today. Gray and gloomy are the words of the day.

Gas prices continue on their rollercoaster ride locally and one station which was charging $3.29 a gallon a week ago is now posting a price of $3.19 while less than a mile away on the same road, two stations show prices of $3.24 and $3.34. All are major brands. Meanwhile back home, the price at our favorite station is $2.82. No rhyme or reason.
Thanks for explaining the reason for the loss of our fabulous posts from last Thursday, Nancy. Didn't see the original explanation.
