Yesterday morning with all the clouds covering us we
had thunder. I heard it about 4 times. Then about 9am the rain started coming
down. Didn't last long. Stayed just about 60ยบ. Then again noon, more rain. By
3pm it was 85ยบ and clouds were dissipating. Finally hit 90ยบ.
Brian put together a surprise 40th birthday party for
his lovely wife Jennifer at Tap Rock last evening. The theme was Mary Poppins,
as Jen is a fan and has named her business of children's parties "Practically
Perfect Children's Parties" ...

Jen was totally surprised. Brian did an amazing job. Brian was Bert and I got
Jen a Mary Poppins hat... a Smilebox to follow...
Coming home last night the full moon was amazing. No picture. Was too tired.
Maybe tonight.
All I know. Happy Saturday. Nuff said. Ciao.

Different Colored Eyes Day
Different
Colored Eyes Day has two reasons to
celebrate. First of all, it celebrates diversity of eye color. Wouldn't the
world be boring, if everyone had the same color of eyes?
Secondly,
it recognizes an eye condition called Heterochromia. People who have this trait,
have two different colors of eyes. One eye may be brown, while the other is
blue. Famous people who have Heterochromia include David Bowie, Jane Seymour,
and Christopher Walken.
Your
eyes are an important part of your appearance. They are also important in
communications. When you look into your lover's eyes, you need to like what you
see. Making "eye contact" just wouldn't be the same without different colored
eye. Isn't it great that we have a variety of eye colors to set us apart from
one another?
Eye
colors include:
- Shades of brown
- Shades of blue
- Shades of green
- Black
- Grey
- Hazel
