Good Wednesday morning everyone. We are starting out with a temp of 84 degrees, here in Louisville this morning. Going back up to about 100 degrees again today, with a 30% chance of some showers.
Good news: our computer is virus free, and ready for us to go pick it up! Now, to find a ride to go pay the bill and bring our computer home!! They called somewhere between 4 and 4:30 yesterday, but I couldn't find anyone to take me to get it. Hopefully, I'll have better luck this morning.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go. On the serving station this morning: bagels, bear claws, cereal (Raisin Bran, Cheerios, Special K, etc) , turkey bacon and toast.
Everyone have a good morning, keep cool and take care.

Deshler Ohio-crossroads of the B&O Matt eats your fries.YUM! Clinton st viaduct undefeated against too tall trucks!!!(voted to be called the "Clinton St. can opener").
Hot! Yesterday a crew was putting down new asphalt on Route 17 through town. Hats off to the crew that do that kind of work. I see pretty girls driving the rollers. It's a tough job but somebody has to do it.
cherokee womanI couldn't find anyone to take me to get it
Paula, standing beside the road with an upraised thumb works aometines.... Seriously, I am glad it is ready and yall can get things back to normal.
At present, 81 and sunny, headed for 96 later. I should try to go to the grocery store, but this deserves some serious study before going out into this heat. I shall sit under the fan and study on it for a while!
Everyone try to stay cool and stay safe

Well Tom, sitting in the "coolness, and "comtemplating" about things sounds very good. I'm reasonably sure that's what we've tried to do .
(apparently around here an up raised thumb is considered to be an obscene gesture.)(hmmm, go figure, wrong finger!!)
Our 'puter is back; hooked up, etc. Apparently they got the Virus off of it, but didn't get the misteakes
mistakes off of it.
CW should be in sometime shortly, she had to make an unplanned trip out.

Bad keyboard, now, HUH?
Well, I made it back from the grocery a little bit ago. I enjoyed using a laptop, but do like our desktop. Maybe one of these years, I might get myself a laptop.
Joe, haven't heard the news, so don't know how the Reds did this afternoon.
Here is tonight's supper menu: Beef pasta w/garden salad and Texas garlic toast..
Dessert: The following homemade ice creams: Vanilla, Chocolate, Peach and Strawberry; also some yellow cake w/chocolate icing, peach cobbler and blackberry cobbler.
While I was waiting for the bus, to go to the grocery, it started sprinkling rain, then turned into a very nice shower. It has cleared the air just a tad bit. Everyone have a good evening, and take care.
Just .2" of rain here today, mostly this morning. Since then, it's simply still hot and humid. Possible thunder boomers tonight...{Scattered}. Sunny now. Did I say it's hot.

Joe, do you mean "borrowing" from a certain team, or going to the "Bat Factory"?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Tom, Hope it's a Great one and you have many more!!

Happy birthday, Tom!
Cool mornings here, though I did open the living room window (facing south) a bit this morning; there is a breeze out of the north. I had a pleasant walk.
Birthday greetings to Tom.
Our day, as we're well into it: 86, with sunshine and puffy white clouds.
And, Tom....it sounds like your area must compete with Florida for the crown with the most amount of thunder / lightning, storms.
So nice, Jean had the itch to head to the mall to "look around" and not get the car dirty or in danger of hail.
Happy birthday, Tom! Hope you have a great day!
Heading for a high of 100 today, but as Mookie said, cooler weather is on the way. Less humidity too.

Here is Tom's selection for lunch/supper today:
Chunky beef stew, macaroni and cheese, smashed taters and plenty of fudgecake.
Tom hope you enjoy!!

Well, back in Wisconsin, and it's still hot out, stopped in Big Cabin, OK yesterday, and felt the asphalt move underfoot as I walked across the parking lot. Not sure if that's a good sign.....
Finally got a chance to visit Willie's Place in Carl's Corner, TX, Willie Nelson has done a wonderful job on renovating the place, including all the artwork and records on the walls. The diner and bar are pretty good too, though Willie wasn't in to give a concert. Place is now added to my list of places to stop at....
Well, dinner, then sleeper, see everyone later....

Barbara & I went to Missouri for a couple of days to cool off. NOT. The Bluegrass festival was great. The afternoon show was brutal for the performers. Home made ice cream was very popular all day long....The Des Moines river is flooded where it joins the Mississippi. We had a long detour.
Thanks to each of you for the birthday wishes. It is good to have friends who remember. I am now 63, but still am a good looking sexy hunk! RRRRRRRRRR
locomuttSomeone opened a fire hydrant very close to the house
I'm guessing that water blasting out of the fire hydrant wasn't very warm, but probably for a quick run thru, it felt pretty good with the high ambient.
Did you try it Walt.....?

Thank You Randy, very glad to see that someone else has "fumble fingers".
(and/or is a "loose nut behind the wheel")
Quentin, CW & I would have gotten wet, but each of us had cameras that aren't waterproof. Ergo, we didn't!
(cop has to show up and ruin the fun for several people !!!!(other than us!)
Oh well, they're supposed to be paid for doing jobs like that; just didn't realize it included being paid for sitting in an air conditioned Police car for about 3 hours and doing nothing.(except sitting there and chilling out)
Good Friday morning, everyone! We currently have 81 degrees at 6:07 a.m., EDT here in Louisville, KY. Going for a high again of 100, with the heat index anywere between 105 - 110. Hmmm, I wonder if any of the kids will try to open the hydrant again today.
Coffee, juices and other morning beverages are fresh and ready to go. On the serving station this morning: the usual assortment of doughnuts, long johns, danish, bagels, bear claws, along with some turkey bacon, cereal, and toast.
Everyone enjoy your morning, and after I get back a grocery run, I'll be starting our Friday Fish Fry. (We've run out of just about everything, so need to restock.) You all take care.
