Tuesday's Tidbits
* Monday is once again completed; you know what that means. It's time for a Tidbits!!!
* Today would have been my Dad's 80th Birthday, Jappy Birthday Dad.
* It has been 22,419 days since I was born, that is 21 years using my new, new, and improved 1,045-day Calendar.
* It has been 7,672 days since I graduated from WVU with a Degree in Geography. I love what I do and am thankful to still be working on my field.
* 6,259 days ago Michelle and I had our first date together. 10,000 BC and Pizza Hut.
* 5,470 days ago I proposed to Michelle in the backyard at 4:00 in the morning. I've been the luckiest guy since that fateful day.
* It was 5,508 days ago in front of our closest friends and family, for the most part, Michelle and I became husband and wife at the Marilla Center, it was a great day with friends and family.
* I have now lived 2,645 days longer than my Dad did and I'm still going strong, slowing down but still going.
* Michelle has been living a clean and productive life and beat that alcohol demon 1,303 days ago today.
* My older Brother Jonathan lived 21,273 days, I've now outlived him by 1,162 days making me Senior Supreme Sibling once again!
* I have 2,457 days to go until I retire, give or take a few hundred days here or there, but I love doing what I do. Who knows, though, doing what I do I may never retire.
* 265 more days until Phil steps to center stage once again for Groundhog Day.
* 232 more days to go until my Goodbye 2025 Blog is posted. Hopefully, I can put some better content together this year.
* There are 225 more shopping days left until Christmas 2025.
* There are 204 days until I hit the age of 62. Yeah I know, I'm really older than 21.
* Pitt comes back to Morgantown in 134 more days. I can't wait. Revenge time for Rich Rod!!!!
* There are 85 more days to go until Michelle and I celebrate our Fourteenth Wedding Anniversary together.
* There are 46 days to go until summer.
* It has been ∞ (infinity symbol) days that I have hated both Pitt and Penn State.
* I have written 7,936 blogs in what is now 20 years since I started blogging. Two decades ago.
* Older Drone still needs to be sent out for repairs, not a big priority at this time. My little drone is awesome and I really like it....when I take time out to fly it.
* Life is much better when you eat Girl Scout Cookies, just saying, Ryleigh would appreciate it.
* Still playing Monopoly Go. I'm still in 4th place among friends and family. I've stayed pretty steady there for a while.
* This is my favorite Tiktok for this week. Has anyone guessed whose idea it was to put a bird tictok up? One guess.

Monday
Looking at the week ahead, I know Michelle is going to have a busy day as I keep chugging along on our project. Kiwi and Peanut are hard at work trying to drive this project home, they are such dedicated workers. Always looking for ways to make things run much more efficiently.
OK, I have to say it, they're gone!!!! For the summer, all of the students are gone; they finished classes, took their finals, and some of them graduated, meaning a new group of Freshmen will be coming in in the fall which means Josh is now an experienced college student and not one of these n00bs walking around campus trying to figure out where to go. Until then however, they are gone so enjoy less traffic for a few months, mobility around town, less lines to wait in.
Have yourselves a great day.

Photo Flashback Thursday
Once a week I like to take a little bit of time out, time to look at some of the 30,000+ photos that I have stored on my computer. Little lost moments in time that I either captured with a lens, scanned or just stole from someplace on the internet. I like to find just one and post it up and recall or relive the picture to the best of my ability. Sometimes this is a pretty easy task and sometimes it's not that easy, one thing it has always been a lot of fun.
Would you believe me if I told you 15 years ago I had a chance to keep this little firecracker. I told Michelle I wasn't interested and she asked Ashley if she would like him, and she said yes. How could I say no to this little cutie?
Well this is the infamous Rocky, aka Little Rock of Love aka Richard. Such a loving puppy. He lives in South Carolina now and has long forgotten about his days in West Virginia and the days in the Valley.
Here he is now.
Have yourselves a great day.
