Good evening, Janey...((HUGS))...any better weather today?

They told us rain, but they lied. We sure could use some to clean up the dirt of all the winter snow melting.

Good Evening Kathy! (((Hugs))) - well it’s been all cloudy, foggy and rainy all day ... looks like the rest of the week will be the same. Oh well, it’s the Pacific Northwest so what should we expect? Maybe around late July it’ll be summer here LOL

WONDERFUL intro, Kathy! *LOVE*

“Oh, I have it,” Pete Replied.
“Where is it? Asked his friend.
“In a shoe box in my closet.”
“You don’t wear it?”
“No!”
“Why not?”
“It isn’t mine,” Pete quickly answered. “It belongs to Casey Waller, Nathan Mann, Brent Street, and the guys in the unit.”

*SOB* Now THAT is a HERO! :)
