I'm off to a nearby gunshow in Frewsburg,NY and coming back to assist mom at a chinese auction.
Behave kids.]
Smile and think happy thoughts no matter what happens.
Let's try to find some goodness to chat about. Deal?
I've got today off from work and actually feel like mowing the lawn today. It's only been a week since last cutting. Hopefully the rain will hold off (I hear thunder and see sprinkles).
Yes, I know it isn't the ideal time. But I try to do as instructed. And all the other neighbors were out. So it makes it difficult to slack off fully.
Then I decided to take a break. Sat on the front porch with a nice glass of this awesome blackberry wheat microbrew that is made just up the street. (Some of you may remember my fondness of the *, as I like to call it)
While sipping my beer, I noticed a fella digging a hole. He was getting it almost dug. But then he would step out of it, fill it back in a'ways, turn around and get back to digging.
I thought about walking over and helping him with the hole he was digging.
But then it occurred to me. It's his hole to dig. He's dug plenty of holes for himself in he past. And I'm sure he'll do a fine job on this one as well.
So I remained on the porch and grabbed another *. Nothing better than sitting on the porch with a *. I recommend. [;)]
I might go get those limbs up off the yard later. But for now, it's a perfect day.
Enjoy!
We will never forget
This afternoon we're going to see the re-release of The Lion King in 3D at the theater.
Nice, relaxing, soggy (raining), early autumn Sunday.
So to get there, I had to take the ferry across the Mighty Mississippi River.
On arriving, I found that the cemetery is STILL closed to the public, so I wandered the battlefield until the rain drove me away.
I drove to another entrance for the cemetery, and ignoring the posted signs, walked in.
A park ranger greeted me, and politely explained that the cemetery was closed to the public.
I explained why I was there, on this of all days, and he allowed me in, so long as I left my camera in the truck. Nice fellow.
Ferry ride home.
Also the first day I ever worked in the glass industry (1971)

I have visited every year on this day, since '92. Since Katrina, it has been closed, but someone always lets me in. This year was no exception. I was afforded my privacy, which is good, as my eyes tend to leak.
