Hiya Connie!!

We had a mild 84 compared to your 111...sheesh, just have to stay inside, I guess!

[ConorMacNessa]

Just routine follow-ups - all is well, thanks.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

[AZamericonnie]

Aloha Bigs! *Hugs*

I do hope something great comes you way very soon....I’m just certain it’s at the base of rainbow in your near future!

[BIGLOOK]

Aloha Procon!

I saw 100 coming and wondered who'd get it.....wondering's over.

[TASMANIANRED]

We were getting a daily thunderstorm but we missed a few days.

[TASMANIANRED]

Dinner sounds wonderful.

[TASMANIANRED]

Ick indeed.

Hello Everyboby!

Redneck Luxury RV

Fraid Not. I will have to put you up in the Luxury RV.

[ConorMacNessa]

It was quite tasty, if I do say so myself.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

[SandRat]

Well.. DeertCoyote and her Husband to be just got the Keys to their new house. She hasn’t sent me the exact address yet but it’s there in PHX.

Needless to say, they’re excited. She said it felt like Christmas.

[fidelis]

Yeah, she loves it (she loves all techie stuff— I call her my Gadget Girl). She’s been playing with it all afternoon. My oldest boy inherits her old iPhone, which means I inherit his iPod Touch, which is probably way more technology than I can handle.
.
When we were there there was about 100 people in line, and about that much throughout the day, we’re told. The line moved REALLY slow, but everyone in line was nice and patient despite that and the heat.
.
Enjoy your tater soup. :) Talk to you later.

[luvie]

Howdy, Conor! Very good to see you, too. I hope you are
going to have a GREAT weekend!....and that the weather
cooperates for whatever activities you have planned!

[AZamericonnie]

Hiya Pro! *hugs*

Believe me, 111* with low humidity is not too bad....add humidity & it would be unbearable! (And that's coming):)

Pro #100!

[luvie]

Howdy, Sissy!

((((hugs))))

Hope you have an easy shift and not too many of the “usual” nutjobs!

[AZamericonnie]

Well darlin’ you didn’t need to go all out!

This here “Boby” is honored at your gracious “hospertality”! :)

[TASMANIANRED]

Nice back porch
