Finally had to start up my furnace. Thank God it is working good. Been cool all day.  I guess it will be colder for the next little while.  So the furnace will be appreciated.  Did not hear from Karen today.  I did text and ask her to call, but she didn't.  We spent Thanksgiving together last year at Debbie's.  I wanted to make sure what she is doing this year before I RSVP'd to John's sister Maureen's invitation.  It is too late now. 
At 6 o'clock, I told Debbie to tell Maureen I would be there alone.  So I will.
I did buy a 12.48 pound turkey at Meijer's for just $4.83. That is $.39 per pound. I was going to cook it for us on Thanksgiving, but now I think I will cook it after that and live off leftovers for a while.  Yummm!  I love leftovers. Just a little Microwaving and dinner is served.
Wow! Furnace is working too good.  I set it for 70 degrees, but need to go cut it down a little.  I think I will try 68 degrees.  Then leave it alone for the whole winter.  I used to cut it back at night, but I think with the right clothes and blankets I can just leave it at one temp. all the time.  We will see.  Stay tuned. LOL  Good Night and GBU EV1.

Field Study Courses

Black Bear Field Study

with Lynn Rogers, PhD

Course description: TLynn Rogers PhD
Lynn Rogers PhD
he Black Bear Field Study courses emphasize daily up-close observation of wild bears to learn their vocalizations, body language, social organization, ecology, and how people can better coexist with bears. Courses are held at the Northwoods Research Center located west of Ely, Minnesota. Participants are housed on site for maximum participation and total immersion in bears. The small class size (8) maximizes individual opportunities to learn under the guidance of Lynn Rogers, Ph.D., as seen on the Animal Planet documentary "The Man Who Walks With Bears" and the BBC documentary 'Bearwalker of the Northwoods.' Daily discussions, presentations, and field trips serve to amplify the information learned directly from the bears.

Participants include anyone interested in bears. These workshops are life-changing for anyone who fears bears, unforgettable for people who appreciate bears, and essential for professionals who deal with bear issues. Click here for Participants' Comments.

Lorie Kennedy and Mike Johnson
Research Assistants
Lorie Kennedy & Mike Johnson
Lynn Rogers, PhD began his bear research in 1967 and will lead most of the discussions and field excursions. Click here for his curriculum vitae.  Research assistants Lorie Kennedy and Mike Johnson conduct fieldwork for WRI and assist with Bear Courses. They know the bears well, and one or the other of them will be present to assist during each course. Course participants are welcome to help them with their daily bear activities and wild foods analysis via scat.

Each course begins at Noon on Monday and ends on Thursday around Noon.

Course Fee:  $2,800 per participant is a donation ($2,596 is tax deductible). A deposit of $1,400 is due at registration with the balance of $1,400 due 2 months prior to the course date. Fee includes family-style meals, group housing, course materials, certificate of completion, receipt for your tax-deductible donation to the Wildlife Research Institute (501(c)(3). Your donation for the course will be used to further our research and educational programs.

Cancellation Policy:  Deposits can be returned (minus a $250 administration fee) or they may be deferred and applied to any course in the following year. Deposits can also be transferred to a donation to further our research and educational programs.

6:14  Very rainy all night until about 10 O'clock this morning.  Land is really soaking it up. Creeks and ditches are not filling up at all. Heat at 68 seems to be ok for now.  Maybe when it gets really cold I will have to bump it up a little, but for now it is good.  I like flannel and sweatpants, for at home wear.  I will put on jeans when I go out.
Gotta go get some coffee today and some deli stuff for sandwiches.  Giant Eagle says $7.99 for Maxwell House with Advantage Card.  I have one and will use it to save $8.50 each.  Also Hellman's Mayo for $3.99.  This says with digital coupon, but I don't know how to do that yet.  So I will present my card and see if it works like all the others do.  If not they can just keep it.
Shopping is just too technically challenging for this old man.

Yes Cal,  They are both very nice.  I did meet both of them, but not at the same time.  I met Mike the first time I went , and met Lorie the second time with Debbie.  If you can find the course letters you can find Deborah, Ohio and Howard, Ohio.  You can also find Laura, Ashville N. Carolina.  It was interesting to read what they all had to say.
Cold and nasty day here.  Just the very worst kind of day for me to go to Giant Eagle and schooled on couponing their way.  It took most of my day, but with extra effort, and
an extra trip to the store where they gave me my one penny change, but kept my mayo.  I finally have the coffee and Mayo I wanted at the price I wanted to pay. I won't go back here.  This is the second time I tried to take them up on their offers of bargain prices, and for the second time I was unable to do what I set out to do.
Two of my classmates talked today of foot injuries due to pet interference with walking.  Both have broken bones in their feet from stumbling due to pets.  Our class breakfast tomorrow will be smaller for that. We graduated in 1957.  I am the youngest at 84.  So falls and stumbles are important.
Now I will say cul Ev 1.  GBU GB Cali too.

joho jim went to the hospital to see justin he was out yesterday but had to go back in so local news showing our star kicker will be out for next 3 to 4 games!!

The Chiefs announced a surprise kicker addition on Thursday after stunning news that Harrison Butker would be placed on the injured reserve list and miss at least four games.

To replace the NFL's best kicker, Kansas City signed Spencer Shrader off the New York Jets' practice squad. Schrader is 100% on his attempts at the professional level, though he's only attempted two field goals.

It's a discouraging sign for the Chiefs' chances against not only the Bills, but in future weeks

said he going in for surgery for a torn meniscus  i know how painful that is so does jim this is so bad and playing bills  which may come down to winning by a field goal good that shrader is 100% but only on two attempts so gotta trust coach reid on this like we did long ago on patrick

back in the good old days i would clip coupons my mom would too giving me some of hers  me to her and some to boobie and i could walk and no curb side pick up i got a cart and shopped used my coupons at the checkout.  now i just order online to walmart and put it on my credit card pick up call the number hi this is cal i am here to pick up my groceries and i am in reserve spot number 1  okay we will get you checked in and be out with your order soon  thank you

That is bad news Cal.  100 percent would mean more if there were more attempts.
 Well Patrick will just have to get the ball across that line so we don't need to kick. 
Tell Andy that for me. lol
cul  Got to get ready for class lunch now. Need to leave at 11.

Has anyone misplaced their bull? He’s been here for a couple days now and our bull has decided he’s outstayed his welcome. There’s been some property damage so he needs to go home.

i commented go check see if your bull is missing if so is this your bull? if yes Go get him
