Thanks, Mac, for the Missing Man Setting as we remember those who have given their all that we may gather safe and secure.

Howdy, LUV!

How’d your day go? Rested up from the trip home?

Good evening, radu...did a storm find you? Thunder and lightning?

Still pretty warm here today, but I think I’ve finally got the fans in the right places. It’s still 80 at my desk, but not unbearable like the last few days. Now I just have to finish watering the lawns.

Hey there, Kathy.

We had some rain this afternoon and the second round looked really ominous as it closed in on us. Turned out not to be too bad - - no lightning with it but it was windy and we got a good dose of rain.

I thought we were going to get more tonight but it’s scooting just under us right now. Drat! Rain chances are high for tomorrow, though, so we could get lucky.

Glad you’re getting a bit of a handle on the heat at last. Obviously it didn’t rain today since you’re watering the lawn. Any chances for rain soon to help cool things off?

It was a good...but hot, hot, HOT....day and I have been tired all day! LOL!

Sorry I waited so long to answer...I was moving pictures from one place to another and it takes time. Also putting some of the newer pictures on Dulcie’s digital picture frame and that took a LOT of time! LOL!

How was your day and weekend? Is it still pleasantly cool there? Wish it was here...or I wish I was still in WY. :)

I cannot for the life of me understand how people make those huge pictures in fields without making a major goof up! LOL!

Hope today has been quiet on the home front!

LOL! I figured it would be a drastic change from WY’s temps and would probably hit like a ton o’ bricks. That kind of heat will do that.

Bet you had a bunch of pix to play with but hey, it was something you could do inside, in the COOL. :-)

Not so pleasantly cool today but not as hot as it was a couple of weeks ago. It’s that humid though. It was a sauna today but we finally got a little rain to cool things off.

You did it! WOOOHOOOOO!!

I totally forgot about it. I think I'm out of practice. LOL!

This is just one scene that I'm missing!

You’re welcome!

I have a bit. Getting sleepy now though, even after a very nice nap this afternoon.

I’m glad the rain reduced the temp and the humidity! I can hear thunder occasionally now, and there are lots of rain cells around. Not sure if we’ll get any, but at any rate it’s supposed to be cooler tomorrow. I hope so....the 96 of today about did me in. LOL

Guess I’d better so. I’m sinking fast! See ya tomorrow!

I just happened to notice when I posted and went for it. I figured you were sitting there waiting to pounce. LOL!

Ooooh MAN! What a gorgeous scene! Yeah, leaving that behind for the flat desert had to be hard. Almost as hard as leaving the kids and grandkids.

A very pleasant good Monday morning to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

((HUGS))Good morning, LUV W. Raining with some thunder here in Comanche OK. How's it going for you this morning?

I hope you can get rain then too. You need it.
Are there problems with large wildfires up there this year? Last year was just terrible.
