70 degrees, very humid(!) an overcast.
Should be a bit cooler today (84)and maybe thunderstorms.

Trip to pick up my stepdaughter's gear went well...about a 6 hour drive down (slow going on the Washington DC beltway). Got the truck unloaded yesterday evening and we'll move it to it's proper location (in the basement) today as well as unload her BF's car.
Pretty trip, for the most part (once we got away from DC). I had the Pete Seeger version of "Wreak of the Old 97" going through my head for the whole trip..."He picked up his orders in Monroe, Virginia..."....which is where we went.

Cooler today, high of 15C or 59F. Cloud/sun mix, will be a good day to do a few things outside. Got to 80F yesterday.

Good morning. 70* on its way to 90* - yikes! Mulched a few flower beds yesterday and am paying for it today with a sore back. Good day to stay inside and watch the race.

I don't think Pete Seeger's version is on Youtube, but there are a few others. My favorite (on Youtube) is the Hank Snow version:

This has a factual basis, by the way:

Back home now, went to car show then stopped on way home to get a dozen tomato sets gotta go plant them...

Attachment is of my good friend and shows his 1978 Pace Car Corvette, it has VERY LOW MILES (8000).

Nice Vette! My best friend had a pace car and sold it some years ago, he's got a '65 Corvette convertible, a '34 Chevy coupe and a '57 Chevy Sedan, his are nicer than my old junk cars.

Look at the license plate...my friend and his son won it in a raffle...think they paid $50 for their two tickets...

I saw the tag and figured something along those lines.

Memorial Day 2012

God Bless the families of all those fallen, MIA, or POW.

I thank all veterans, especially those that gave the ultimate sacrifice.

The tree of Liberty requires watering at times.

Be well all.

Coffee is brewing. 73 degrees this morning. Heading to 91 with some sun. Still to hot to do much. Making the drive from western Michigan back home.
Memorial Day. A day to remember.
Good Morning All.

The weather here was beautiful for yesterday and the day before, but it is now back to clouds and cold. Darn it.

Didn't have a coffee today as I awoke at 9:33AM and had to rush out, so a cup of tea was sufficient to keep me going.

Got to go back out again this afternoon to the recycling store down the road as they said they'll have a cheap Vacuum Cleaner for me then :thumbsup:

Have a good day all!

Hello all, 68 here now forecast to be very hot later on. Got 11 tomato sets planted up by the house yesterday...will need to get another two dozen to go in the garden I always grow lots more than we need because I love giving them away.

Trying the pics again:

They look a lot more professional than my bargain basement chain hooks I will take a pic of those later today. I use mine so rarely they don't have to be really strong or fancy.

77 here going to 91. I gt to enjoy it because of men like my father that stopped the Axis powers from making slaves of the world. Thanks to all who now serve, have served and will serve to keep us free.
