What's going on at Waterman Broadcasting in Ft. Myers?

 


It was announced today that another cast member is leaving tomorrow Rachel Duensing is leaving us without her dimples and smiling weather reports whether rain or shine, to move on to North Carolina!

Friday, a longtime anchor and much loved early morning guy, Clay Miller, decided to retire from the news business and become a civilian, a realtor! He joins Rachel Pierce in her non-newsy life as an amazing artist and full-time Mom, as well as Chad Oliver who now works in administration in education! But all of them stayed locally!

Craig Wolfe left years ago, he is now in Nashville, I think he mentioned, and his leaving was a mystery until just recently! I do believe this is okay to share, after all, it was a news report!

Most recently, in a messaging this year on May 4, 2021!

Makes one wonder the real reason so many have been moving on, that is all the others that are in entirely different professions than Craig... as many reasons as new professions, I suppose! Oh, and Rachel Duensing will still be a meteorologist but in North Carolina!

Moving on...

The backyard pool reno continues today for the new liner is due Wednesday, this one being removed lasted nearly nine years! The new one will be the third replacement since the pool was installed in 2005!

Most all the equipment for the saltwater conversion has already been installed, except the generator!

Hubby is now working on removing the deep end ladder to repair. Deep-end is a bit of a misnomer since the "deep-end" is just about five feet deep!




Moving on once again...


Allow me to leave you with something attractive...our morning sunrise!

I bet you are sorry that you too were not awake at 6:35 A.M., hmm? Or were you?


And so we must go, for now ...

Please be smart, as well as safe.
Have a very pleasant day.

Count those blessings, and we will too!
Next time, please be here or be square, ya hear!

Aussie, say good day!

I am Aussie, not being from Australia, but American-made, I will comply anyway, for the fun of it,... so I will say good day!

I am called Aussie because my Mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl, who had been looking at me, in the crate at the adoption site, that day, what she thought I should be named. And without hesitation, the teenager had said, Aussie! She was just looking, by the way,... so Mom did not steal me from her.
We never did find out the girl's name, and Mom liked the name Aussie too. We have since found out that it is a very common name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon though,... some might say even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd. Here is an interesting factoid about me, I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd, but... as you might know, I AM NOT! Although I am now three years old, so I am the baby, though I tip the scales at around seventy pounds, HA! I must admit, a very big one!
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. I had been taken out of a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter. Below is my new PIC that had been taken on the birthday that I share with my Dad, but Dad is much, much older than me!!! I was the first to be adopted, February 16, 2018, his brother's birthday.
3 months................................................ 3 years

No tail/tale publishing, circa 2018. (Although, the actual date this blog started was June 25, 2008.) 
Get it? I was born without a tail, preferable for all Australian Shepherds; only one out of five are born that way!

                                           
Hello, I am Bella in the picture above, a Maltese Yorkie, a Morkie, and I might be five years old. I am the middle child, so I am what you would expect, with all those idiosyncrasies that go along with all that! Being the only girl has its rewards, as well as difficulties... We are all rescues, so no one knows for sure our ages. I was turned in by my previous family, stating that I was misbehaving with their elderly dog, they had said I was driving him crazy! I was the second to be adopted on 8/18/18, on clear out the shelters' day!Oh, by the way, my record's called me Belle, and so for no known reason, Mom decided I was more of a Bella; beautiful either way!


Please don't forget me, I am Chance, pictured above, a Bichon Frise! I am six years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with Mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps in with Dad, till after seven most days, even later! I enjoy a good tug-of-war on the ropes that Dad had twisted for Aussie and me, and sometimes even Bella plays too! I was the last to be adopted, on January 23, 2020. 

I was wandering the neighborhood for days and then saw Aussie and Bella in their living room window, so I hung out there... The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening? 

The animal control lady was called and came out to see if I had a chip I.D. with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason being, that if no one claimed me, I want to give him a second chance! So that is how I got the name Chance!

Easy as Aussie, Bella, Chance, now you got it!
