Same to you as well! Its been raining here most of the week. We have been dealing with the remnants of Hurricane Alex. But on a positive note...no water restrictions for us this year!
Morning ALL!!! 64 degrees in the Metro Louisville area right now, going for a high of 90 degrees today, with lower humidity.....sounds like a very nice day to get on the bike and go around to some of my favorite spots for some train watching!
Coffee is brewing, water is on for tea, etc., good stuff is being put out on the Warming Trays now. I'm very sure CW will be in later with a menu for today.
Hope All are preparing for a Great Happy Birthday America weekend! Just remember what it actually stands for.

Kinda dry hereabouts. Maybe it'll rain on Monday, after all the weekenders head home. Isn't Monday the "observed" Independence Day, due to the 4th being on Sunday? A lot of people will still be off work.
Fireworks in one nearby town tonight, for which I'll load up my mountain bike and do EMS patrol, then it's down the river to Alexandria Bay for the fireworks gala there. With any luck, I'll catch a ride on a local fireboat for a front row seat...

Just coffee for me. We are headed over for a fund raiser breakfast at the Eliza Community Church this morning. The ladies adorn the tables with home-made Danish & donuts. I call it, "Fattening up for the Fourth"..Then we are off to find the tallest corn in the county.
good morning
Sister is coming up today.We are taking her family to Sauder village.Going to check out their new pioneer section.No trip is complete without riding the "Erie express".Might watch some ns on the way and back home.

Good Morning All. Currently cloudy and 79 here in Alamo City. Still dealing with the remnants of Hurricane Alex here in South Central Texas. Showers and storms predicted through the weekend.
Enjoy your holiday weekend and be safe!
A beautiful 4th weekend here.....Bright sunshine, pretty blue skies....and still with lower humidity. But we understand heat and humidity is to come back rather soon. At least no rain for our holiday time here.....
Everyone enjoy.....Safely.

grampaw pettiboneGood morning. Kinda cool in Carolina this morning, 67 and sunny. Gonna heat up to the mid 80s later.
Kinda cool in northern Utah this morning, 50, sunny and a brisk breeze out of the north. Gonna heat up to 80 later. We had a welcome cold front (no rain, though) come through last night. The morning temperatures had been about 60, with the highs in the eighties and nineties. Southern Utah, of course, has already had highs above 100. I'm glad I do not live down there, even though the cloimate is dry.

Good afternoon, everyone. I have had lots of problems this morning, trying to get in here on IE browser. As soon as I would attempt to log on, I'd let the dreaded "Page cannot be found" message. Finally, I pulled up Firefox, and managed to get logged on!
Walt, thanks for fixing breakfast this morning! I really appreciate the help you, Joe and the others give me in here!!
You all have a good afternoon, keep safe, and I'll see you all again in a few hours, with our pizza menu.
DeggestyDo you expect to find any that is knee-high?
.......If anyone is hunting tall corn, we can satisfy. For our somewhat northern location, the corn has really grown fast {with an excellent growing season so far}, We have some corn around us that must be at least 10' now....! Tassels on them too.
We had a great time today. Many fields have had way too much rain, leaving dwarf corn, pale green in color. We also found tall corn in many locations. Note the size in Barb's pic.Then we saw a loaded coal train finish going around a manifest train.
good evening
sister and her family had a great time at sauder village.We stayed until they closed.They have made a new whistle stop in the pioneer village.Cw thanks for the pizza.Tomorrow is G+G house and the fireworks.
Joe
Pizzas are on the serving station. Usual list of pizzas, along with a "Red White and Blue" pizza. Enjoy and have a good evening.
Had a nice day today. Breakfast out; trains for awhile; early supper with a low-flying chicken.
He was on his way back home to Denver, so we had to lift and eat fast.
I really do enjoy his visits - even if they are always too short!

Good morning, and Happy Birthday America!
Murray, thanks for posting the UTube link of Kate Smith, singing God Bless America! Such a very nice way to start Independence Day.
Joe, thanks for taking care of breakfast. You and Matt did a terrific job!
We currently have 77 degrees outside, and supposed to get up to about 93 degrees today. Going to be a beautiful 4th, with no rain in our forecast this year.
Everyone have a very good day, and take care.
Quentin sent, and asked me to post this picture for the 4th of July; So here you go; Happy 234th Birthday America!!!!
I probably should add that these Flags are at the Mr. & Mrs. Q's residence and are put out on very Special Occasions. (Memorial Day, 4th of July, etc.)
.......Thank you Walt. Everyone appreciate this day for it's meaning. And enjoy the total weekend....Safely.
Another appropriate link that is as timely now as it was when it first aired in the 1950's. Enjoy everyone:

This is a "Flower Bed" here at our house, Sarah "Created" this one a month or so ago; friends on Facebook should have already seen this one already.
Just thought it was appropriate for today.
Murray, thanks so much for the links for Kate Smith & Red Skelton.......
The last one (Red's) need to be shown to our "Governing Officals".......that's what this country IS supposed to run on, by, etc.
Afternoon, and happy Independence Day, all.....
Home for weekend, so have been working on models again, finishing up some 12-year old Walthers tank car kits, amongst other things.
Mutt, Facebook comment I posted was prompted by a wreck I saw about 50 miles from you, apparently someone in an SUV made a hard right on the interstate, and when it hit the bottom of the ditch, the vehicle pole-vaulted into the fence line, upside down. My first thought was "Gee, what a funny place to park a vehicle...."
Well, off to parents to celebrate holiday, so see everyone later.....

Matt had fun meeting Carlie.I had to explain when she was fed that her and her mom needed time alone.The fireworks were good tonight too.Going to take some cherry pie then it's off to bed.early start tomorrow,
Good Monday morning ,everyone. Such a nice 4th of July yesterday! The three of us went to the fairgrounds, for the Stewart Flea Market, saw our friends from High Sierra Barbecue, and got a few things that we needed. Came home, and fixed supper, watched the Capitol Fourth, then went outside and watched the neighborhood fireworks. A splendid evening.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go. On the serving station this morning: bagels, bear claws, turkey bacon, pork sausage patties & links, scrambled eggs, made-from-scratch buttermilk biscuits w/sausage gravy , cantaloupe and watermelon chunks.
Everyone have a good morning, and I'll be back after awhile. Take care.
