Hit The Road

The “Road of Life” has many turns and even more Treasures……

Here are some great pictures, I wish there were captions saying where these are…. I’d love to see something like this in person.

What Happened To All The Rain Today?

I had wanted to go to the flea market today with a friend. But all week long they have been saying that Sunday was going to be raining. And the forecast on Saturday had it up to a 80% chance of thunder storms. So at the last minute we changed our plans and what happens – not one drop of rain all day!

Today

On this date July 26 In 1979, Tropical Storm Claudette dropped 43 inches of rain on Alvin, Texas to establish the 24-hour rainfall record for the U.S. We could certainly use a good rain like that at this point. Things are drying and shriveling up like crazy due to this heat wave. Not going to be a good year for gardening, I’m afraid.

Elks Party

Just got wind that I’ve been invited to the local chapter of The Elk’s annual picnic and Flag ceremony this coming up Saturday afternoon. I hope that the weather is decent, since it starts at 1:00pm and is being held outside. With the way that it is going it will either rain or be in the high 90’s or even into the 3 digits.

Holidays

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. After the trick and treaters have come and gone, there are some fantastic parties going on all around town. I love seeing all of the ladies dressed up their wild costumes that they work so hard to put together and accentuate with some of the wildest themes in mind.

I haven’t had a party at my place yet on Halloween. There is just so many other ones going on that I can bounce back and forth and all around to that it is much more fun not having to deal with all the work and time involved in putting on a decent Halloween party. I can concentrate on all of the sexy Halloween costumes that I’m surrounded by. Last year I got phone numbers from a gal in a sexy pirate costume and one from a broad dressed up a sexy cop costume. Even went out a few times with the pirate wench, it was a blast.

She actually belongs to a local pirate club that I’ve heard so much about these past couple of years. She was supposed to take me to one of the events, but we’ve backed off in seeing each other, but who knows, it could happen. Stranger things have been known to happen.

Anyway, this heat has got me thinking about the Fall and then of course Winter will soon follow. Autumn will be nice, not excited about Winter and all that goes along with that. Soon enough it will be Thanksgiving, then Christmas and then yet another new year. 2011 is right around the corner. Looking forward to saying goodbye to the year of 2010 – which will be known as the extreme weather year. We jumped from a wicked, blizzard filled horrendous winter right into summer, never even say one day of spring. Don’t know what a 70 degree day feels like.
