Good 44ยบ clear sunny morning. Pressure dropping slightly.
Stayed cloudy on and off yesterday... only they were the high cirrus
clouds..
Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there.
LOL, 1947 Christmas morning... and Daddy with his tie on..
smoking a cigar (IN THE HOUSE!). I do recall not long after that time he stopped
his cigar smoking and didn't drink alcohol either. Something changed his mind...
maybe it was having a baby girl in the house again!
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DADDY!!!!
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY DADDY!!!!
Today we will be celebrating Father's Day at Brian and Jen's.
I wonder if this 'tent' will still be up. This was the first day of vacation for Tucker and Sami. They were having fun while mom caught up on chores!

Jury Duty... I was thinking about this last night.... My Dad,
who was out-spoken, was picked for the Sirhan Sirhan jury. After being
questioned by the DA and defense he was excused. He certainly was happy about
that as it would have meant driving to LA every day and who knows about being
sequestered also. No cameras were allowed in the courtroom, so an artist did
drawings. My Dad's picture was on the front page of the LA Times. Mom, on the
other hand was sweet and kind and loving and she got on juries because they
figured she could be easily swayed. She was and the last jury she was on, she
hung the jury! Mom! Then Jerry got jury duty summons for ELA court. He worked
close by, so he wore his uniform to the courthouse. He was excused! I was picked
for jury duty in Pasadena. Questioned about any relationship with law
enforcement. "Yes, my husband is a Deputy. I am a Reserve Deputy and a 911 &
Calls for Service Operator." "Mrs. Maxwell, do you think police lie?" "Do
lawyers lie?" (smiling and giggling to myself!) "No, Mrs. Maxwell, do police
lie?" "Why should they? If the suspect doesn't go to jail today there is always
tomorrow, and as you well know, if a crime is committed, then the suspect will
do it again." "Thank you Mrs. Maxwell." I was not put on the jury, but made an
alternate. LOL!!!! I was called to jury duty up here in Medford, questioned
about my background, and excused. "They" sure don't like strong people or cops
on juries! Nuff......

National Lobster Day
Cut the top side of the lobster tail from end to end. Pull out the meat and
set it on top. Brush with clarified butter* and sprinkle with paprika. Bake in
pre-heated oven at 400ยบ 15-18 minutes. PERFECT every single time~!!
*Melt butter over medium heat and simmer a few minutes until you can see
the solids separating. With a spoon skim off the solids. Voilรก... clarified
butter.
