Good 73ยบ cloudy afternoon. Full moon out there.... be careful!
Yesterday Linda and Andy got here at about 5:30pm. We put their 1932 Ford
Roadster in the carport .... Dude sniffed it stem to stern....
Then we headed into Grants Pass to Si Casa Flores and meet up with Brian
Jen Tucker Sami and Jean for dinner to celebrate (late) Jen's birthday (7-11).
Dinner was great. Fun time. (more pictures later) Andy and Jerry were
Marines together, Brian was a Marine, so we put Andy and Brian next to each
other at the end of the table. Brian is also restoring an old step van so he and
Andy talked old cars and Marines!

July 18th
National Caviar Day
(OMGOSH, I LOVE caviar!!!)
Something fishy is going on today. It's National Caviar Day. Now, just what's all the roe about this
day!?
Caviar is salted fish eggs, or "roe". It is considered a delicacy. Caviar
is enjoyed by the upper class, and those of us who occasionally can afford a
little of it, just so we can say that we had some. Russian Caviar is reputed to
be the very best, most sought after of all caviars. There's red caviar and black
caviar, along with other colors. Black is considered the best. Perhaps you
should do a taste test.
The most prestigious, and best(??) caviar comes from sturgeon found in the
Caspian Sea. But, other fish, including whitefish and salmon, are less expensive
alternatives.
Which caviar truely tastes the best? We'll let you be the judge.
Happy National Caviar
Day!
