Good 57º cloudy morning.
Got a storm last night. In Grants Pass Jeannie said they had thunder and
lightening. I never heard any thunder. Patty said at the coast they got a lot of lightening and thunder and hard rain. The rain started some time in the middle
of the night. We got 1/4".
Going to be clear and warm up today. Yesterday at the Fair it was 91º.
Historically this date....
1969 – Apollo program: Apollo 11 successfully makes
the first manned landing on the Moon in the Sea of Tranquility.
Americans Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin become the first
humans to walk on the Moon almost 7 hours later. (US Time)
2012 – Masked gunman opens fire at
a midnight showing of "The Dark Knight
Rises" in Denver, Colorado, killing 14 and
injuring 50. Columbine and now this!!! What is in the air in
Colorado?????
And births this date include...
and a bunch of other people......
The fair yesterday was fun. I met up with Leanne and got the patriotic
jewelry we sell and the money box. Pat Tracy and I worked for 3 hours. The first
thing I got was a Human Bean caramel mocha iced whipped...... (the stand was
right outside the door of the building where we were...) OMGOOD!
Lots of people stopped by and chatted,
signed up to help with election stuff. Bought jewelry.... even one of the ladies
from the Democrat's booth bought a pin!! When Felicity showed up I left and made my rounds of
the fair.
There was an enclosed Butterfly exhibit that you could go into and be with
the butterflies.
There was a parrot act, complete with a pirate ship. The birds were loose
and a couple of them flew around and around overhead for a bit. One flew past me
and his wing hit my head!
'Rebel' was in training to be an "Air Dog"....
Here is the walkway outside one of the exhibition buildings... obviously a
kitty came walking when the cement wasn't quite dry!
This lady said it was just a 'single' order of curly fries...
I stopped at the bee/wine booth and being a loyal SOW Sista, had a
chardonnay toasting my BFF who couldn't join me....
All I know. Nuff said. Prayers to the people in Colorado!
