That label fades in the sun, I gotta do better Daddyishealing Hi, I placed your Dad's name on the Tile, but have to do something more sun resistant.

Also got more Blue Bracelets for people supporting my PCa 5k🤙💙

PM me for info, I'll be back to add more 😭, if I receive requests

Mahalo Bruddah Kal💙

She msgd me Dad's name, and ya know how I need Beach Therapy esp with cooler weather coming

So, combined a Ventura trip with a name addition and a pick up of bracelets, and a mile walk to the Memorial.

And, of course, had lunch : asparagus, kielbasa, mussels, shrimp and an Octoberfest beer🍺🏖️💙

Baby Baby I'm QoLing in love again

Your October feast looks yummy but wharze your sauerkraut and strudel ? Been eating “ late “ season strawberries here … after they pick these , they pull up the vine. It’s a Hmong berry farm about a mile from the house. These berries are so sweet .

Yes buddy get’in it on at the coast ….do’in it … while you are still able. I’m envious, … been circling the drain a bit here lately , one whack a mole after the other. Things picking up tho …. planning a water side ( San Joaquin River ) trip to the handicap facilities near Friant and doing a little nature and fishing. No fish there , but it’s not the point …just wetting my line and enjoying nature outdoors . Inspired by you buddy.

Maybe you could go to a local laser engraving shop and explain everything to get some donated plate engraving. Offer to put their logo on the bottom etc. . Might be worth considering.

❤️❤️❤️

Btw: kielbasa is Polish just fyi lol

It was only the Beer that was OktoberFest not the seafood and sausage. I got it from Trader Joe's up in Ventura. But, when I do take a Trip in October, Imma wear this amazon.com/Forum-Womens-Del...

Oh dang Bruddah, hope that you resolve whatever's going on making you whack a mole, I'd rather guac a mole😁

The San Joaquin trip sounds wonderful , big time QoLing there. And I'm so glad that I maybe was a lil impetus for that

I see my dad’s name on there (Albert Moser) it makes me so happy and sad at the same time. Thank you for doing that.

What are the bracelets your doing?

dockam in reply to fmoser

Hi, and You're welcome about Dad's name on the Memorial Tile, I had his name on the back bib that I wore in Long Beach PCa 5k, and I just used the same document to make the tile, with a few more added :-(

I had the Blue Bracelets made by a Vendor in Ventura to give out for Sept PCa Awareness month. Btw, I mailed two to y'all this pm 😂

hopeful1956 in reply to dockam

It was tough. Too hot, too hilly and too many sharps bends .... and man the wasps were everywhere. Ugh. I finished in 43:11 (run/walk). Hubby walked it in 1:01.51. How did your 5K go?

dockam in reply to hopeful1956

Yikes !!, those are totally no bueno race conditions :-( and wasps Oh Dang !!

I did a virtual 5k the other day for the Blue Believers of Iowa for a PCa guy out there. My event is on 11/04 and so far we have the largest team and ahead in $raising.

Did a mile on the bike path in Ventura and then 2 more last night when I got home. I'm 56.92 miles from the 552.2 miles on 10/13/23, that was the PSA on 10/13/14.

It'll mark my 9th year with #stageivpca

QoLing on till I can't

You are amazing.

Have you thought of metal letter punches. You could get a piece of cedar or teak that would be pretty weather resistant. If you are interested, let me know, I’ll contribute the punch set.

LoL, dunno about amazing, just being Kind/caring or maybe it's the single digit Testosterone levels.

youtu.be/rqZSobgtZpA?si=u-t...

Ohhh, that's such a cool idea with letter punches, but it seems that it would be a lot of labor to set the letters for the over 50 something names there, and then adding more as I receive requests.

I'm thinking when I need to add names, I have the original Word Document and can easily add a name, print it up and re-cover with the clear counter paper over it to make it water resistant

Maybe a UV resist cold laminate would work better for the outdoor installation?

Mahalo, just ordered some and will print up the PCa taken list of men again and use that over itWhat really faded was the last minute names

I used a Dymo label maker to print it, as the request came when I was up in Ventura already

Mahalo for that Brother

Hey - my brother and sister-in-law are artists. Are you looking for something that would cover that and make it not fade? Or, something different that would resist the weather. Message me.
