The Packers were designated as the visiting team so they could wear green. I bet the locals were happy that the evil green team lost. As a Bears fan...I'm glad the evil green team lost.

LOL Don't be saying that over here - Ireland usually play in green! BTW. England beat Ireland 2-0 earlier tonight.

You definitely had a great comeback and had me sweating it. I'm so happy for Trey. They mentioned his birthday three times. He's a class act.

HossC Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 We got our first snow of the year last night, and it started again this morning. It's that horrible wet snow that's leaving thick slush everywhere. We're due for freezing temperatures over the next few nights, so I'm expecting the roads to be very slippery. I briefly ventured into town after lunch and they were already quite bad. I don't think we got snow last year (at least none that settled) so we're not used to it here. All the shops were closing early tonight and people have been panic buying supplies for a few days. My friend's daughter's family are out in the country, and they're cut off for now.

RogerDuke Posted January 5 Author Report Share Posted January 5 Panic buying is going on down in Virginia right now where they are expecting a major winter storm. We have a lot of snow on the ground here on Lake Erie and no temps above freezing predicted for at least a week. Too bad you didn't get that snow for Christmas Hoss.

I'm not saying we're nearly as badly affected as some US states, but we never seem to be prepared for it. Very few people would have winter tires as it happens so infrequently. I'm back to work tomorrow and even though I only have to drive across town, I'm not looking forward to the journey. Even the main roads weren't clear today.

Hobie Hartkins Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 (edited) Hey, I was wondering...who was the aunt that Jesse wanted the boys to visit once when they got in trouble and Luke said " Heck, he hasn't even spoken to ..aunt........in 20 yrs" .? * I just thought....Aunt Lovinia??

RogerDuke Posted January 7 Author Report Share Posted January 7 Kate I believe...definitely not Lovinia. Hobie Hartkins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 It was Aunt Lavinia in 'Return of the Ridge Raiders'. Bo and Luke come under suspicion for the Ridge Raiders exploits. Jesse: "Boys, I'm gonna need some ... some breathing space for about three or four days. Now, I tell you what, why don't you go over and visit with Aunt Lavinia? You'll be safe there, and then ... then I'll catch up with you." [Sighs and hugs] Jesse: "See you later, Luke, Bo." Luke: "Be careful." [Jesse drives off] Luke: "Heck, he ain't even spoke to Aunt Lavinia in over 20 years." RogerDuke and Hobie Hartkins 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDuke Posted January 7 Author Report Share Posted January 7 Thanks Hoss. I would have bet money on it not being Lavinia. Good thing I didn't. Hobie Hartkins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HossC Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 Daisy went off "to visit Aunt Kate for a couple of days" in 'To Catch a Duke', to help her "back on her feet from her miseries". It was the only episode that Cathy didn't appear in because she was filming 'Circus of the Stars'. Of course, Aunt Kate should not be confused with Aunt Katie in 'Duke of Duke' who preferred go by Katrina and not Katherine!

HossC Posted Sunday at 10:31 AM Report Share Posted Sunday at 10:31 AM Other than a few location shots for the Hollywood expeditions and location work at the Warner Ranch, Warner Bros. Studios was the only LA location used regularly for filming, and as far as I know that area north of the Hollywood Hills (home to many studios) is free from fire. All the movie ranches were around Santa Clarita or even further away. BTW. The Warner Ranch, home to the Bewitched house and Friends fountain was razed in 2023 to make way for offices - see here.

HossC Posted Monday at 06:56 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 06:56 AM When I wrote this yesterday, I hadn't read about the Hurst Fire near Sylmar which is just south of Santa Clarita. This is only a couple of miles from some of the filming locations, but I don't think any have been affected so far. As I write this, the Hurst Fire is 89% contained.
