Happy Memorial Day and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

We had KFC for supper yesterday.

Yesterday at Comanche Lake:

How's everyone doing this morning?

Howdy, E.G.C. ((HUGZ))
You had a gorgeous day for your outing with Gizmo yesterday. I imagine it was a bit crowded at the lake.

Hey there, radu!

Thank you. I had tears when reading what that man wrote about his friend. :(

It was 100 degrees or close to it today, so it was sweat weather. But most of it was spent indoors, so it wasn’t awful till we had to get into the hot car from go one place to the other.

How were things over your way? Glad the horrible storms that struck KY didn’t make their way south! Mercy!

I’m afraid I won’t be around much longer. As soon as I finish this show, I should head out. It’s been a very long day for this lazy owl. ๐Ÿฆ‰

It was VERY touching, no doubt.

Ugh! Too hot! It got up to 89 here but it was so windy, it didn’t feel that bad. Up until about 15 minutes ago, it was still 80 degrees but now it’s down to 70. The storms ARE here. They just aren’t as bad as they were earlier in the day. A tornado just passed abut 20 or so miles south of here. I stood on the front porch watching the sky strobe as it passed. No visible lightning bolts, though, because they all stayed up in the clouds.

It looks like nothing else is going to fire up too bad, thank goodness, so I’m going to start getting stuff done so I can go to bed.

Good morning, E...((HUGS))...hope all the tornadoes are done and gone from your area.

Gizmo looks like he enjoyed your outing to Comanche Lake...lots of things to do.

Watch out for crowds today.

We always got there early so we could watch them arrive. I was friends with several of them.

You picked a great spot to get a shot of them.
Is the memorial at Anchorage or somewhere else?
