Nice... and hot. Just got good news today from our contractor letting us know the city has finally approved our deck plans for around the pool and side yard...
There are people in this country today who do not realize this will be their last weekend with 10 fingers and both eyes functioning.
It’s honestly too hot. I much prefer to be down here around Christmas.
I can’t remember where you have your house, but we went to dinner with my wife’s uncle tonight at Marquesa (glad he was paying). Pretty good stuff. After dinner we walked the Old Town area a little (Eaton, Fleming, Simonton). He was giving us the history of that area and mentioned your family name, along with some other established family names in that area. If you’re in that area, it’s a really nice area that in the 18 years with my wife I’ve never really explored. All of my time on Simonton has always been closer to US 1 where her family has been.
Let me know when/if you’re going to be down there between Sept and March. I’ll plan a trip. Drinks by the pool or a smoked Old Fashioned at General Horseplay on me.
“someone is spending their last weekend with 10 fingers and doesn’t know it”
At least he'll still be able to hold a Marlboro...Your neighbor says hi!
So many flag desecrations that they don't seem to care about.
Turned out to be a panic attack they thought was a heart attack on the grandpa. He’s doing alright just needs his meds and probably to not be around constant booms for like 8 hours. Vietnam vetYour neighbor says hi!
A friend on Facebook posted “Do you understand that there are people in this country who have NO idea that this is the last weekend in their life that they’ll have ten fingers?”
I like the Fourth but agree about the fireworks garbage. Go to a place where there are trained folks putting on the city’s display. We loved the “Kaboom Town” show when we lived in Dallas and the suburb of Addison set them off on the suburban airport runway - away from spectators.
