The CZickness XXXIX Waiting on what's next.

Turbo says his Dad's situation appears to be improving as well and they're hopeful to get him out of ICU soon.

Howdy folks. Was able to text with my Dad this morning. We went back to the hospital last night, kept him. His oxygen levels were down to 79-80... This morning he said he can finally say he’s feeling better, but with as low as he was, that’s not saying much. He’s in good spirits. So long as he’s not moving around his levels are ok.

That's wonderful news, Rusty...I'll be praying for continued healing for both of your parents.

Glad to hear that Rusty. Prayers sent for a quick recovery

Sounds like he's heading in the right direction. Great to hear!

I'm eyeing the At-One 457 Varmint....that one and the thumbhole one. Patience people......

Definitely. I have no problem playing the long game to get my opportunity costs on something to line up.

I know some folks will say grab what you can, when you can, but this is not a commodity or a need.

It's a want, and I have no issues waiting for the right thing to line up at the right time.

GM all. Howdy doody? Glad to hear the folks are improving. Let's continue this trend.

Been at Opa's all morning adjusting the garage doors. Had a nice visit with them with no turkey distractions. Oma is quite the character these days.

Oh, and Pickle Lady lives the SR22 I picked up for her from the pantless hiway yesterday. Winning all around!

I've been doing a one-mile brisk walk every evening, as part of my diet/exercise program.
These (2) geese are in the same spot every day. At first, they were disturbed by my presence, but now I pass within 30 inches of them. They've accepted me, and I stop and have a few words with them, while catching my breath.
They crack me up !

Are you sure they aren’t decoys?

I stop, and talk to them. At first, they both look up at me, then they look at each other, and then they both go back to staring straight-ahead (as pictured), as if I'm not even there.

I'ma telling you, it's uncanny ... and perhaps you're correct ..... but I have seen them walking out in the road upon occasion !

I hear DNR is using AI now. Or Canadian spy tech.

I suggest you let them marinate.

 

[Leadeye]

Sounds like they are picking out a nest site, once they get that established they won't be so friendly.

I'm their friend. artificial or not !
.......but I do think that babies are enroute.

I’ve chased many a goose off my parents pond. They must talk to their friends because I’ve never come across one that cared for my presence.

 

[Leadeye]

Where I lived before the woods they were pretty common, not as sociable as the ones that MM has found. People who lived in the addition around the lake fed them all the time.

 

[jagee]

At my old job, there were unfriendly geese. One would not get off a lady's car, so the old grumpy guy at work went out and grabbed the goose by the neck and shook it. Goose was pissed but left and the lady could get to her car.

 

[MindfulMan]

Most geese that I've encountered are unfriendly, but for some strange reason this pair is different.

Take some bread with you next time, they might be expecting to be fed. Do that a few times and they might start following you on your walk.

Years ago my dad fed a Canada that moved into the pond by the garage at the house. After a while it followed him around everywhere, I used to refer to it as his disciple. Sadly it took to staying on the porch at night instead of the pond and a coyote got it.
