Yeah....our squash always went kaput around this time of year. But usually, we were so tired of squash, we didn't mind. We had to switch the carbaryl attack to the corn borers.

Folks, I have a prayer request. My oldest brother died this morning, we think of a heart attack. He was in the ICU in a town in MS close to SirKit's hometown doing a house inspection, when he developed severe pains. They thought it might be kidney stones, so they admitted him, but during the night, he was short of breath, so they put him in ICU. Thankfully, his wife was already on the road because she knew that after passing the stones, he'd be in no shape to drive. So she wasn't alone; their son's fiance was with her to drive the other car back. DiDi arrived about 10 minutes before George died, so it was a blessing that she made it in time.

Please keep him and Didi, and their four grown sons in your prayers. Please keep the rest of us in your prayers too. He was the oldest of the siblings, and is the first of us to go, so it's tough.

I saw the most unusual thing a little while ago...I saw a hugh hugh airliner...big massive thing...fly fairly low over our house. Not right over our house, like the Black Hawks do, but the route planes normally take. But just fairly low...not way up like Southwest Airlines or something. Moving real real slow.

It had a great big massive disk on the back of it! I started hollering and Joshua ran out to see it too. Then Steve got home and he said he'd even seen it as he was coming home!

It was an awesome sight.

Plus a whole bunch of F16s (or maybe a few over and over) have been flying over all day, since early this morning. No BHs though...not yet anyway. Wouldn't surprise me, what with all the activity.

Wonder if it has something to do with the Fourth?
