Yeah I always had a preference for the Dirk Pitt series. Too bad only one of them made it to the big screen - Sahara. 

BTW, I did a little math; 400 books let's say times $15. avg price ......😱

I know and they're the ones that I keep because of the author. To be fair though, I do buy a lot on Amazon, pre-owned. I've paid as little as $0.01 for a book with $4.99 shipping in very good condition.

I finally made some shelves in the man cave to get all the books off the floor. The bookcases got blown out the last time the basement flooded. That issue has been resolved, but I've been slack in regards to doing something about the books...guess it takes a pandemic to get me off my arse. Yes, there's a lot of books, somewhere around 400, I think.

First one I noticed was "The Cooks Companion" despite it being face down. Why isn't it in the kitchen😀 I've given my oldest a copy, the youngest will get hers for her 18th. My copy is very well worn.

All my cookbooks are on the bottom shelf...yes, there's a lot of them. That's why they don't reside in the kitchen, they only make their way there when I use them for a recipe. And sometimes I just like sitting down there in my recliner reading them.

Love the bookshelf, you did a great job and I hope the wall is reinforced because you have quite the collection. Also, love the pants! I binged Dr. Who earlier in the year and absolutely fell in love with it.

It's at times campy and corny, but it's one of the best written and most clever shows I've seen. 

I think the gal playing Dr. who this past season did a great job in the role.

I've still got to watch her episodes, I saw the first one and thought she was great in the role but for some reason we never finished the last couple of seasons.

I've been watching Doctor Who since 1976ish, the Tom Baker years. Jodie Whittaker found her legs in her season 2. Season 1, for me, had some really badly written episodes.

Guess I missed Season 1 with her. I just binge watched this last season with her and thought she did a good job. Looking forward to next season.

I’ve spent the past week cleaning up the mess of 8 stumps being ground, building and mulching a garden and growing grass where the stumps no longer reside. Needless to say I could use a new back. On the bright side of things, not only do I have the worlds best helper but my Azalea bushes are starting to pop.

Just finished the terrace just in time for summer, now have to do the concrete support on the right side, fill the void with fresh soil, get rid of the bushes on the property line and plant a beech hedge.

Almost finished building myself a new smoker, will get it done tomorrow before seasoning it and hopefully getting some ribs cooked.

What a great transition - nice job. Based on the grills in the background - you'll have to start up a new thread..Grill Ho's
