A late howdy. Been running like crazy around here and we are headed to another parade and fireworks late this afternoon.

I'll try send a photo to ZORA of the "clown" yesterday to post...If it works for me.

CILLA~~About the "time" thing that is never supposed to happen again.....Wouldn't such a sequence happen again next year only in the next month and a day, minute and second later? 05:06:07 08/09/10 ???

I thought I remembered seeing one of those last year and wondered the same thing for this year and on, until it is not possible anymore.

MERLE~~I do hope you can get some of those delicious peaches for yourself again this year. Those are undoubtedly THEE best peaches in the world!

Prayer for your friend Grace!

ROSIE~~I know you are the best nurse around. Do enjoy your time together and hugs to your DD to feel better very soon.

ZORA~~I saw some interesting facts about the signing of the Constitution yesterday. Thanks for all the info you give us each day.

Hopefully I can sit and chat longer soon.

Very big waves and hugs for each of you.

TTFN~

Tippy

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA! May GOD always guide her!

Happy 4th. of July to all my friends.........sure hope everyone has a great day.

Nothing much going on around here, DH tucked away in his shop, I've balanced the checkbook & written a few checks & doing laundry as we speak. Have a good book going, new author to me, seems to be pretty good.

Haven't talked to DD #2 today, no phone calls means she's doing ok today. DD #1 called in this morning, says her DH got up at 4:30 to go fishing.......ugh........no fish is worth that........too early for me.

DH & I have decided to go to Cracker Barrel for dinner tonight, want to get breakfast, will come home & watch the Neil Diamond special on TV.........rousing evening......LOL!

DD #2 coming out for dinner tomorrow, think I'll fry up some tenderloins, have mashed taters, gravy & maybe some corn, will fix rolls to go with it, maybe some slaw.

Everyone enjoy the holiday.

Good morning everyone!

Zora ~ Had to laugh about sending computer guy to Mabel. I'm not looking fwd to fireworks either as Eddie was really hyper last year for them(didn't mind them before that for whatever reason). Hope he's better this year and hope Tallie(puppy) isn't hyper, too, or it will be a 3-ring circus here.

Helen ~ I could go for that menu that you and your GF are having today.....simple, but good.

Waving to Margaret, Cilla, Sandy, Beverly, Nancy Z, Nancy B, Brenda and all others who drop in today.

It's a beautiful day here. The sunny with a lovely breeze blowing and coolish temps and is supposed to be round 80 later on in the day. I have been concerned with these cool temps and lots of rain about crops though and yest the did mention that the tomatoe farmers are having problems with some sort of blight from these conditions.

Nothing much planned for today. Everyone except Charlie and I are away for the weekend so we will probably just kick-back and take it easy for the day after getting the odd jobs out of the way. Eddie seems to love having a companion. He and Tallie have been play-fighting constantly, but the tails are wagging furiously while they do it .

Hope all have a nice holiday. Hugs and prayers for those who need them.

Happy 4th to all -

Zora, will you drive the golf cart/mower too?

Brenda, seems like we always have to 'go with the flow' with the kids. Days fill up anyway!

A GF is planning to come up here...we'll have Angus burgers, potato salad, baked beans, & strawberries...she hadn't heard from her son & DIL yet last night, but if they show up, there will be plenty to eat!

Hey, Leisa.....come on down. We'll accomodate your diet requirements & have some laughs!

Waving to all - Helen

Good morning, Happy 4th to each of you. Hope you have a great day. Our day is still open for suggestions. DD and family are going out of town to visit DSIL's relatives. They will be gone for the day. DS, well who knows he sorta goes with the flow,but somehow always seems to be around at meal time. Won't complain, he is my go to guy when I need something done. Ain't life grand.

　

Zora - Guess you won't see Bob much between work and a new mower. We don't have a lot of firecrackers going off here. Pretty quiet road. Mostly older people down this way now. Will have to pass on the singing, don't know what I did with the money mama gave me for singing lessons.

　

Margaret E. - Have a great visit with DD and enjoy the day.

　

Cilla - Will visit the sites as soon as I finish here. Can't wait to hear Faith Hill. Hope you have a terrific day.

　

Sandy - Waving back at you!!

　

Nancy B. - Wow, bet that is some fireworks display. Hope you get to enjoy some of it.

　

Beverly - Love watching the Dream performance's.

　

Nancy Z. - Happy 4th to you also. Enjoy your day.

　

Sitting here watching my hummers flitter around. I can see one of my feeders out the window. I love watching them.

Dream performance : Performers from China's Disabled Performing Arts group perform "My Dream" at the opening of the Tyre South Festival in Tyre.

MY DREAM - TRAILER

The below link will show you some beautiful pictures/stills of the above production.

-----------------------------

A lone rooster sends his wake up call pealing across the country side. Grackles chirrup sleepily high in the tree tops. With a flash of light a car speeds past to some unknown destination. The moons pale light has faded as the old cliche, "darkest before dawn" as set in. It was a warm 79° at four this morning, causing trickles of sweat to slip down the sides of my face, pooling behind the lens of my glasses.

I still don't know if the parade will happen - it isn't raining yet. Whoops! Here it comes! Tonight is the big fireworks display downtown on the river where people on both sides of the river can see and hear it - aptly called "Red, white, and boom." I believe I heard it is an $80,000 deal - and sponsered by a hospital.

Zora, hope Shorty makes it through the noise and that the chickens don't panic. You have a nice, quiet day. Nancy B
