  11. Tell you what, you and the Producer make a winning team. She supplies these gorgeous captures and you provide the perfect tune to send us humming into our Sunday. Win? Meet win!

    And congratulations again on that big Irish win. I watched the highlights and while it hurt to see that comeback fall short, it’s ayt. We just have to keep winning now to make the playoff.

  16. You build me up, John and Producer, but this I think this is a delight — you know that I have from the start! I’ve been overly happy that here it’s finally cool enough to enjoy a bowl of soup.  Although don’t break my heart and tell me that there’s no more of that Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl. It sounds too good to pass up.  Thanks for inviting us into your garden — hey, I’ll be over at ten.  All the flowers are a sea of colorful wonder, but I’m bewitched by that ground orchid.  I try(ed) to find a little time, and you made me happy (okay, that’s not exact but it’s close) and finally that song that I was waiting for from the beginning!  WHY DO YA!  Do have a splendid new week, John. Big hugs.

  19. Fantastic effort by The Producer. Are all these flowers in your yard? Protected from the pooches? Our season is over. A few hanger ons on our Hibiscus. Pumpkins are front and center now.
