RIB EYE REPEATS - ELVIS AND ANN MARGARET - HAM CONTESTING

That time of the year again when we find a good cut of rib eye roast and cut our own steaks. 

We have been doing this for the past few years and have shared this before with pics. What has changed?

The price. And it appears these treats will keep trending higher. 

These steaks priced out at $9.78 each and, in my book, that is expensive. Seems not too long ago this price was in the seven dollar each range. But always always much less cost than buying a steak or two cut and packaged by the butcher. The quality of meat and size of each steak is also much better. 

I priced two similar steaks packaged at the same large chain store earlier this past week and two rib eye steaks like these were selling for $40.

SHUFFLE DANCING AND MUSIC that is fun to watch and listen to.  INTERPRETING THROUGH DANCE. 

Most all of the dancing I see these days in the selling for products or an attempt to share, falls way short of intent. But these youngsters shuffle dancing.....well sound up and full screen. Enjoy. 

 Elvis and Ann Margaret remix to shuffle dancing. (stay with the video)

Watching Ann Margaret dance to the same song. My Goodness!!

BLACK AND WHITE

A make-shift yard debris compost site out back that is worthy of photographing in black and white. This would look like a junk pile in color.

HAM ON A HILL

 Friends, tents, HF radios, portable HF antennas, coffee, doughnuts and talking with folks half a world away.

Spent yesterday morning in a small HAM amateur radio shack in eastern New Hampshire during a contesting field exercise.

A very poor black and white of one of the folks I was watching and working radios with, tuning the 20 meter high frequency band for contacts in Scandinavia during their contact contest this weekend. 

This was my first opportunity to work my recent ham license upgrade on the high frequency bands. My first contacts were in Denmark and Finland. 

So what? Well, it was a first. I was learning more using amateur radios and how challenging this can be to a new comer. AND it was fun and I want more experience.

This winter is going to be spent learning before buying equipment and building antennas.

Appreciate the visit again this week.
