What's Up wth Bill and Kathie: The Grove
http://supbk.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-grove.html
What's Up wth Bill and Kathie. Tuesday, May 26, 2015. On Sunday, Betsy suggested we all go to The Grove, which is a park on the grounds of what was an estate belonging to John Kennicott, a horticulturalist and naturalist. You can read more here. The park is quite beautiful and a very peaceful place for walking and learning about local plants and animals. I recommend it if you are in the area. One of the big attractions for the grandkids was this turtle pond. There were lots. Penny loves her Pop! All the ...

What's Up wth Bill and Kathie: First Fish (Alternate Title: Gomer Glasses)
http://supbk.blogspot.com/2015/06/first-fish-alternate-title-gomer-glasses.html
What's Up wth Bill and Kathie. Monday, June 01, 2015. First Fish (Alternate Title: Gomer Glasses). I've been wanting to post something here since we arrived at the lake last Wednesday evening. My first catch of the season seems like a good excuse to do that. Got him or her on my first cast too! Nothing wrong with sunnies, Bill. Glad about the double knit slacks! The fish looks ok. Hope you get some more. Sounds like the hot tub will get a work out! Maybe lime green or you could get some funky plaid!

What's Up wth Bill and Kathie: Roof Repairs and Shingling
http://supbk.blogspot.com/2015/06/roof-repairs-and-shingling.html
What's Up wth Bill and Kathie. Wednesday, June 10, 2015. Roof Repairs and Shingling. As it turns out, availability of contractors this June has not improved. So as I looked at the damaged porch roof, and looked at it again, I started thinking, "I could do that! I got one side mostly shingled yesterday, but as the sun and temperatures rose, the shingles became soft and were too easily marred by my boots, so I stopped working in the early afternoon. Truth is that I quite enjoyed this project, but I won't l...

What's Up wth Bill and Kathie: June 2015
http://supbk.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
What's Up wth Bill and Kathie. Monday, June 22, 2015. The original home plate is exactly where it always was at the park, and some seats, a sign, and the original foul line poles are still present. Johnny Rosenblatt was a baseball player who later became mayor of Omaha. His leadership convinced the NCAA to establish the CWS in Omaha, where it has stayed for more than 50 years. It felt a little like we were paying homage to the tradition of the CWS by stopping at this site. Then it was on to our first gam...

What's Up wth Bill and Kathie: July 2015
http://supbk.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
What's Up wth Bill and Kathie. Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Catching up on my posts! They say that having a dragon fly land on your fishing rod means good luck. Well, I had one land on my thumb, which you would think would be really, really good luck. Alas, no! I enjoyed the feel of his/her little feet, though. Typical of many gatherings of this type that I've witnessed before is the presentation and honoring of those who have served in the U.S. military. Sometimes when we go out in our boat, especially when ...

What's Up wth Bill and Kathie: April 2015
http://supbk.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
What's Up wth Bill and Kathie. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. When I lived in Iowa City on Court Street, I put up a single-rope swing with a round seat for the kids to play on. It hung from an American Chestnut tree in the back yard. I have old Super-8 home movies of Will, Rob, and Betsy swinging back and forth. They developed some daredevil methods involving jumping off the top of a picnic table and swinging far and high. Later, I fixed some nice steaks (and hot dogs! Saturday, April 11, 2015. We are home n...

What's Up wth Bill and Kathie: October 2014
http://supbk.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
What's Up wth Bill and Kathie. Thursday, October 30, 2014. So, the men proceeded to relocate the tank and to trench in a new copper line to the house. Turns out they found a defect in the old line, so that got corrected as well. We like the new location. Seems to improve the overall look, and the mowing and access to the hot tub and porch areas will also be better. Now if we can just get those house repairs scheduled! Wednesday, October 29, 2014. Two Down; None to Go; A Hole to Fill. One Down; One to Go.

What's Up wth Bill and Kathie: Catfish Hunter
http://supbk.blogspot.com/2015/06/catfish-hunter.html
What's Up wth Bill and Kathie. Thursday, June 11, 2015. Catfish Hunter: (a) the name of a huge catfish sought by the stars of the movie Grumpier Old Men. B) the name of a professional baseball player from 1965 to 1979- a pitcher for the New York Yankees and other teams, or (c) Kathie and me this afternoon. Nice fish, but Kathies is definitely the bigger one. Good catch guys xxx. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Betsy, Pete, Henry, and Clara. Rob, Carrie, and Eleanor. Will, Sandy, and Anders.
