Excellent light show in the wee hours this morning. (Saturday) I hope the storms didn't do any damage wherever you are, last week.
Another uneventful week here at "The 'Burg". Cookout day here yesterday (Friday). Forgot what a burger on a grill tasted like. The Burg rents a huge tent for everyone to sit under. There were a few party poopers, like me, who chose to eat indoors. Not sure why I don't want to get out. Maybe I'll give it a go this next Friday. Joe's family comes and sits outside each Friday afternoon. I'd like to meet them, as well as Oscar, the family canine. Staff here, some of them, dressed up in Western attire yesterday. Kinda neat to see them out of their daily rags. Molly is the winner, in my opinion. She came complete with a six-shooter on her hip. Really cute.
Time once again for the Reds update. Losers of their last 4 in a row, 5 if you count last nights loss to the hated Cubs. 2-8 in their last 10, a full 6.5 games behind league-leading St. Louis and 5.5 behind the sCrUBS. 2 games from being the bottom dwellers of the Division. Maybe next week. I need to use Molly's gun. :-(
That's it for this time, see ya next time but in the meantime have a great week!!!

The cookout sounds wonderful~!! Nothing better than a hamburger hot off the grill...even better than a steak in my opinion!! You really need to get out there next Friday...the outdoors and the sunshine is theraputic for any of us...and, of course, Joe's family's dog!! Being the animal lover I am, I would encourage you to invite yourself to meet with them for a short visit and a few minutes to stroke Oscar. It would be good for you and Oscar both!! :) Well, that's my prescription for the new week~! :) I'm sorry about your Reds. Maybe Molly's six-shooter will get them movin'! I always enjoy your updates...keep them coming!! :) ~Cookie

ReplyDeleteUnder the Big Tent reminds me that the "Big Time Circus" (not really) came to Topeka a couple of week ago. They set up juast to the north of West Ridge mall. They had a herd of elephants and who knows what else. Tons of people showed up and the wanabe mall security cops had their hands full with traffic control. It was quite funnt to watch them finally just give up and let people try to make in on their own.
ReplyDeleteYou being an old traffic weenie would have loved it I'm sure.
Yeah Earle, don't look now but the Cubs are in FIRST place.
