Heat ~ Rain? ~ Throw Back Thursday ~ Mike Hannan ~ International Firefighters Day ~ Star Wars Day


Good 55º sunny morning. We topped at 91º yesterday. We'll see what today brings... supposedly (hmmm...yes, "supposedly") we're going to get a 'thunder storm' later today in the area of 2pm. Also it is "supposedly" going to be cooler.

Ah... Happy Throw Back Thursday... Here is Brian on the Masonic Lodge float for the 2005 Boatnik Parade in Grants Pass...

Yesterday I did a bit of housework before going to pick up Sami and stay with her and Tucker til Brian got home.


Special Birthday today... Mike Hannan (ret. JaCoFire and former Fire Chief in Rogue River) HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKE!!!!

With that being said, Mike certainly made his birthday a special day being born on Star Wars Day... May the 4th be with you! Today is also International Firefighters Day!

Good job Mike!!!

May 4th
Star Wars Day

It's all because of a play on words!
Star Wars Day is May the Fourth, because of a famous quote from the hugely popular science fiction series blockbuster is "May the Force (Fourth) be with you"=
Great ways to Celebrate Star Wars Day:
Watch any of the great Star Wars movies
Better still, have a Star Wars marathon, and watch two or three (or 4) of them.
Get out your laser sword and practice for the next invasion from the Evil Empire.
Send a Star Wars day Ecard- of course they have them!
Have a Star Wars costume party.
Learn some Star Wars Trivia, there's no shortage.
