Ok, Thanks Red. I know it had been there many years but have not been down that way in a long time.

I don't know if there is any members here that travel Lebanon Road between Hermitage and Mt. Juliet but their use to be a huge place across from Shilo Plaza on the right side going towards Mt.Juliet that sold wood. Split and round logs for fireplaces and wood stoves. I have not been through there in a couple years so don't know if it's still there. Maybe a member here can tell you if they are still selling wood there.

Yea! the news said the car was on an Island of land. I would imagine it was a pants warming moment...................

Well I won't say that LEOs are all trigger happy. Their are some men and women that should not be wearing a police uniform, thats for sure. They have a chip on their shoulder when they put it on and the chip remains when they take it off. My issue is what kind of a country would it be without the good ones that perform their jobs and don't have the attitude the few bad ones have. IMO I would rather have the good ones but sometimes you have to take a little bad to see the good.

Alaska suffered a major earthquake this morning that hit near Anchorage and from what I saw on the news it was a 7.0 and done some serious damage. They are doing a major inspections all along the pipeline.

It's easy for the gun grabbers in America to say we are the worst of the worst because our news networks don't broadcast all the mass shootings around the world like they use to. One network use to brag about having World News Today with Walter Cronkite but it died when he died...................

Well a welcome to TGO is not needed since you have been a member for years so I will say welcome to the Forums and look forward to having you posting..........

Putting their stupid decision out there and then blaming everything including the weather still does not add to their bottom line in profits and that is all investors are interested in seeing is profits.......JMHO

My next to oldest brother didn't like his name even though he was named after a famous President and a famous train company so he told every one to call him Joe. His name was Dwight Lionel which was after Dwight Eisenhower and the great toy maker of trains, Lionel. He was called Joe so much that many people thought that was his real name. It made his teachers mad when they would use his real name when they called on him in class and he didn't reply back. After a while the teachers began calling him Joe also........................

They made that bed so let them lay in it. Maybe some of these companies that jump on the anti-gun train might want to do some research first to see how many people in this country purchase guns, own guns and hunt with guns. It's not just the right that own gun! People on the left purchase them also and they hunt also.........JMHO

For those of ya'll that have not seen it, I think it was South West that had a commercial on TV that did exactly that to people with odd names................

I know , and I was telling you why it was cold out side............

I think that would depend on who you ask I think. I think there is a big difference between Global Warming and Climate Change. I'm more of a Climate Change person and the Earth is just going through more of a natural change as it has at least a dozen or more times in it's history..........JMHO

Well I'm as far off the ground is I plan on getting so no plans on being a stunt man for sure. I love my house because it has 7 foot ceilings and makes it great for changing lightbulbs........................

Barely but yea, I guess you might call that a successful first landing. It didn't kill him..............

Promising possibly! Future only if he survives the learning part...........

Yea and the guy says he plans on doing it again when he gets well.............

My oldest grandson Justin has one my son bought him when he was 8 and last year Justin bought one for Logan his baby brother at age 11 since they are hunting partners. My son Ronnie bought one when he was about 20. I never bought one because I knew after getting hit by that truck and all the problems I had just trying to work I would not be doing a lot of big game hunting.

I will look into getting one of those cause I have never trusted gas heat 100% anyway is why I got 2 Smoke and Toxic detectors when I moved in here. I'm not sure the detector your talking about would be of benefit being lower to the floor since all my vents are in the ceiling in this house.

That was a great video for sure. It shows that LEO's do care about their people they are paid to protect............JMHO

Yep, even if it's a small pocket pistol. Something is better than nothing maybe even more important this time of year. Stay safe my friend. If you need one it is better to have one. What is all Uber can do besides fire you for breaking the rules but at least that would be better than the alternative...........JMHO

Well new day and pretty much same as yesterday morning. I noticed right off that she didn't eat her night snack which is a first. She was sleeping in the same place as always so I did nt bother her. When I got ready to sleep, did as always and turned off TV and light. said good night to her and went to sleep. Got up this mroning, dressed in warm clothes cause I knew she would want to go out right away. Made her breakfast and by then she is normally at the door needed to go out but was not there. She came running out of the bedroom when she heard me open the inside door. I normally just open the door andlet her out and she goes out and is back at the door to come in in less then 5 minutes but by the way she was acting I decided to finished putting on my big coat over my hoodie sweat shirt and went we out for our what would have been our normal walk after breakfast. We walked all over the three back yards we normally do and I could see she was much more hyper than normal. As I started to work my way back towards the house as I got about 20 feet from the door she stopped and laid down. I called to her about 4 times and she just laid her ears back but would not come to me. I came in the house and got her short leash and went out and hooked her up and she stood up and reluctantly came to the house undragged. Once in the house she imediately wanted back out. Back when Kasey was about a year old I began working with her on a cable run. I had one installed and the main run cable is 100 feet. On that cable was another 30 foot off lead and she could stretch it out off the main cable and actually go 130 feet at the far end. She went on that cable every morning and had her own dog house she could get in during the day when it was cold till I brought her in at night. It the summer time her favorite place to lay was under the boat in the carport on the concrete floor cause it was cool. When I got Darby, because she minded so well I decded I would not use the cable unless forced to and up until now I have not needed it but I did always keep it in good working order such as cable lubed and runner wheels lubed and working perfect. Well Darby really wanted to go back out so I hooked up the cable run ad put here on it and walked with her to the end of the run so she would know how far she could go and how big an area she would have to moved around in. I then came back in the house and watched he through the kitchen window. She came all the way back to with in 10 feet of the door and stood a few minutes and then laid down on the cold ground. I left her out another 10 minutes and went out and led her back to the door and into the house. She stayed close to me and would stare at the bedroom like she wanted to go back and lay down but would not do it. Instead I kept to Bait room door cracked most of the time and she nosed that door open and went in and laid down in a corner of that room. If she is not scared to be in there I will put her a bed in the corner she has chosen so she can at least get some rest. I have been racking my brain what there is of it to try and remember if Kasey ever acted like this and I can remember bits and pieces of her acting strange and I could not hear it but one of the smoke detectors had a batery get low on power and it would beep ever so often but not loud enough for me to hear it but she could and she would go to the door to go out which I had trained her that is they went off to go to the door so I could e sure and get her out in case of a fire. I would let her out and if I didn't go with her in a minute or two she would come back in. About an hour later she would do it again. I ahd a friend stop by and while he was here he heard to detector beep and he said you have a smoke detector with a low battery somewhere and it was in the bedroom. That was an old one so I just took it down and bought a new Smoke and Toxic detector next time out and put it up. Kasey was fine again. So today I will be taking down that detector and remove the battery and put all new batteries in all of them in the house and see if that might be Darby's problem. My fancy cell phone will beep like that when a message comes in so I will be plugging it up in the living room and turning it off. I am determind to figure this out. If any of ya'll have any ideas please throw them out on the table regardless of how they sound cause I am asking for ideas. Thanks

Update: I have a friend that I called to come and see how she reacted to him. Back when I first got Darby it was a rocky start. I got here on Wednesday and had my heart attack on Saturday and after William got me to the hospital I asked him to take care of Darby and he promised he would. He fed her everyday in the evening. He came over a couple times a day and took her out and played fetch with her and some nights he would take her home with him to spend time with his two small house dogs then bring her back home. She still loves him to this day and when he stops by she won't leave him alone and keeps taking toys to him trying to get him to play with her. She even brings him a dog biscuit that she has hid someplace and gives it to him. Well it took a little of William working with her to coax her out of the Jeep but she finally gave in when he walked over and picked up a couple sticks to play fetch. She seemed to be relaxing while playing so when she got ready to quit he threw a stick and she didn;t go after it so Wiliiam and I came to the front door of the house and she stopped about 20 feet from the door and laid down. William walked out and petted her a few times and walked towards the house and she acted like she was going to come in and got about 10 feet from the door and sat down. William took her short leash out and hooked her up and she followed him in the house. After he left she seemed a lot less stressed but I was not going to let her get back stressed so I took here for a walk out around the yard and instead of coming back in the house I took her for a ride in the Jeep to a park ad we walked around a little, back in the jeep and go gas it up. Then come home like normal. Let her out and she jumped out normal and came in the house and began eating her breakfast I have put down earlier. She is acting like nothing happened. Ate supper and chased squirrels out in the yard and right back in the house. I have no clue what was bothering her this morning at all the way till noon or a little after William left and we went for the ride. William said the wind was howling late last night I didn't hear anything but Darby is really scare of thunder storms but normally when they start I can find her in the bathroom laying on the bathmat. That is her safe place during storms. She picked that when the first thunderstorm happened when she came here to live. Thanks to everyone that offered advice and showed concern. I don't guess we will ever find out what it was but I sure hope it never happens again.

I cut cable a year ago because their pricing was getting crazy and I just bought two antennas as a temporary plan till I figured out what I wanted. When I programmed the TV's to the antennas I found I got all the local channels along with about 35 other channels and so far I have been not missed cable at all but have saved a bunch of money and just watching what the antennas provided. I will look into some of the other stuff soon just to see what they offer. The only things I really miss on cable is the Discovery channel, the History Channel, and Biography channel. Does any of the programs mentioned above offer any of those?

Natural gas heat and yes I have two smoke and toxic gas detectors in the house and just put new batteries in the at clock change time and tested both of them.
