Good evening/morning, Mayor, and thank you for today's sustenance for body and soul.

[luvie]

Have plans for tomorrow?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, mountainlion...I salute your neighbor's son. Being a Tomb Guard is something very, very special. Those are special men...so dedicated to the job they do.

[radu]

I’m back. Had to make a store run and water desperately thirsty flowers. Not even a dewfall tonight so Hubby’s out mowing.

Did you have a good day, LUV?

[Kathy in Alaska]

You’re back...get everything you needed? I made a WalMart run this morning. I’m making macaroni salad for tomorrow and forgot celery. I’ll be getting things cut up and mostly ready tonight...I think.

Earlier we had the biggest and loudest and longest thunder storm I’ve heard up here. It poured for about a half hour. Not long enough, but I’ll take it. Hope you get some soon.

[radu]

Yes, got what was needed. Cat litter was the most urgent since we were out. Gotta have that! LOL!

Lucky y’all having a thunderstorm! Did you see any cool lightning bolts while you were out watching?

No rain in store for us until Thursday. :-( Going to be hot, hot, hot between now and then.

[Kathy in Alaska]

No lightning that I ever saw, and I don’t know where there were any clouds to bump together...the whole sky was just, and still is, solid low and drab. Maybe more rain mid-week. We will see.

Hope yours gets there soon.

[luvie]

Hi, there! Your poor flowers! I sympathize. We have to water ours too and it’s getting really expensive already and summer isn’t even here with it’s REALLY high temps! Ugh!

[radu]

Guess there were just the two bolts that gave those claps of thunder you heard. It happens here sometimes and is disappointing. I’ll hear a THUMP and run outside and ...... nothing more.

Glad you got some rain this evening. You needed it badly.
With a lot of luck, we’ll get some Thursday. There are a lot of fields around here full of young soybeans and corn that will greatly appreciate it!

[radu]

Hey there, LUV.

At least the flowers are lucky enough to get a little drink. Everything else is on its own.

At least we don’t have to pay for our water since we’re on two wells. We had a wet winter and it was wet all last year so we’re good for quite a while. But it still stinks we have to water anything.

I guess we’re going to have a hot summer here, too. It’s already hot and it’s too early for this kind of heat.

What happened to Spring? We went from winter to summer!

[E.G.C.]

A very pleasant good Memorial Day 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, Ladies. How's it going?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, E...((HUGS))...and a good Memorial Day to you as well.

You and Bo have a great day.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I was hoping you would report in, henkster.

Sounds like you had a great time, per usual.

So glad the tradition of honoring our servicemen and women, past and present, continues.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good morning, Meg, and thank you for this beautiful honoring of our fallen. Lots of tears this evening. ((HUGS))

[Kathy in Alaska]

Yes, Sand, we thank them.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I know you will give a great keynote speech. Thank you.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I just finished watching it...I DVRed it, but caught the repeat run as well. As a matter of fact I am watching it right this very minute. Trace Adkins is singing “Arlington”.
