Yep, we both have rotten luck when it comes to rain, don’t we? LOL

It won’t be anything like Dorian. At least not now as it hits Bermuda. It’ll get a lot stronger mid-week while it’s out over the ocean away from any land. Thank goodness for that.

Josh didn’t go to Bermuda. He lives in MS right now and is waiting for Sally to come to his front porch.

A very pleasant good Monday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country and thanks, Kathy for this informative thread about the anthem that everyone SHOULD stand for as I always did before every sporting event I attended.

How's everyone doing this morning?

[luvie]

Oh, that’s cool. He’ll have some good reports I’ll bet. I never saw any of his stuff on Laura, but I do know he was there.

We just have the worst luck with rain. Have we jinxed each other? LOL!

[radu]

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))

I imagine all of us here are like you, standing for the national anthem. We had proper upbringings and have respect for the flag and our country that it stands for. Disgusting that there are those who don’t.

I hope you and Gizmo had a good time yesterday. Did he wear your feet down to nubs dragging you all over creation? :-)

[radu]

There’s been a slight shift in the predicted path and it will pass almost directly over his house.
He does have a video on his YT channel of footage he got from Laura. He also has some footage of Dorian. That one made my hair stand on end.

We must HAVE jinxed each other regarding rain. LOL! We do have some rotten luck with it.

If you’re still awake, you should take a quick peek at Manitoba. The aurora is awesome tonight. I’ve been popping back to the computer periodically to check it out and grab a few scaps.

[E.G.C.]

Well, I don't know if you've seen it, but here in SW OK we've had hazy skies from all of those fires on the West Coast. We've been fortunate to get the sun, albeit light at times.

But, in any event, Gizmo and I had fun at Comanche Lake yesterday. We did see some families out there also. Here are the pics from yesterday.

[luvie]

Just peeked in to the Manitoba cam. Wow! Right now there’s nothing, but I went back and it was exploding!

I’m gonna have to give it up pretty soon. It’s been a long day and taking a nap around here is like trying to sleep in an airport. So much noise. LOL

See ya tomorrow!

[radu]

Oh no! You’re getting smoke too? I hadn’t heard about it.
It makes it hard to be outside. :-(

Gizmo didn’t seem to mind though. He found something to roll in so life is good. LOL

[radu]

Glad you took a peek. It was really crankin’ for a while. Best aurora in a while, though there could have been other big blasts that couldn’t be seen due to clouds. It’s been cloudy up there most of the summer.

I’m surprised you were up as late as you were. Getting a nap can’t be easy.

I hope the winds shift so there isn’t a lot of smoke tomorrow so y’all can enjoy some time outside.

[E.G.C.]

No, we're not getting fires. What we're getting is smoke yes from the fires. The jet stream is what brings these hazy things into our area.

That is why it hasn't been as sunny as it should have been. It does make it hard though, I agree. :-(

[radu]

I understood you’re getting smoke, not fires. I just didn’t realize it had travelled that far. But there are a LOT of fires burning right now and it won’t surprise me if it makes it over here before all’s said and done.
It would be so nice if it would rain and put the fires out.

[E.G.C.]

I agree. We could sure use some rain.

[SkyDancer]

Thanks! This “scam-pandemic” cost lots of folks their jobs and livelihood. To me the media is to blame for most of it then too the politicians namely Demon-rats.

[JBW1949]

You are very welcome, Kathy...I, myself, don’t care at all for non-traditional versions....EXCEPT for this one...Bray is a patriot...I hate he isn’t with Madison Rising any longer, But I’ll always keep a copy of this National Anthem...

[luvie]

Goooood mornin' from beautiful Jackson Hole, WY.
Or at least it would be without the smoke haze.
California's nightmare has moved east.
Even so, it's still lovely here.
Everyone is off doing their own thing this morning.
So I'm lingering at tea. Join me?
We can let spel pour.
Hope all y'all have a Mahv'lus Monday!
...and a Wonderful Week!
(((hugs)))

Happy Late Summer Monday Madness!
