Good 47ยบ rainy morning. Been raining hard for a couple of
hours. So far from last night we got another 3/4" of that wet stuff.
YEAH!!
After thinking about a wrap with the smoked salmon spread and
the shrimp I had to have one for breakfast...
OMGOOOOOD!!!!! Next will be adding the shrimp to some Alfredo sauce and
pasta. Drooling....................................
This was posted on FB on my friend Bob Klamm's page. This man
is awesome. Let's run him for PRESIDENT!!!
Hard to believe JFK was assassinated on this date 51 years
ago. Seems like yesterday. I remember my fiance, George Pendleton, and I taking
a drive to Bob's Big Boy in Pasadena. He had a nice new car with a 33 1/3 car
record player.
(before there were 8 Track players or
cassette players or CDs!). There was nothing on the radio, no music, but news of
the assassination. We put the Beach Boys record on..
and cruised through Bob's. Every single person in
every car there was trying to find the radio station with music!
