Looks like a beautiful day in FB. Jon, we got those smart meters and a new line from the road. I told hubs the bill will go up now. A paper came here last summer where you could sign up for this program where when the demand go high the would shut of your AC for a period of time, I think through that meter. I told hubs - no way one more step to complete control. Rose, was thinking of you and Coco out there, glad to hear its not near you. Eclipse in Sunday evening, Oregon see the peak. Blessings

crap foisted on us by the do-gooders but those are mainly electric ones. I just saw on the local news where Donna Summer has passed on from cancer at only 63. Very sad. I saw her twice in concert & while known for her disco hits, her musical tastes were much broader than that. She could teach Maria Carey & the late Whitney Houston a few lessons in my opinion. RIP Donna. Rose are you guys close to these fires this time? 90 here tomorrow. Guess our truck is hiding during the construction. Jon

Hey Bud, I'm with you, Man. This is such an unreal time of year that I just love. What I like about being on this end of our subdivision is that it's very quite It's nice & quiet here in the evenings & at night as well. You can sit outside and not hear anyones radio or TV blasting. But it would really be a whole lot better out there if it wasn't for those little flying blood suckers. But I'm pretty safe as long as I'm with Pajm as they just love her and ignore me for the most part.

dogs because they are true working dogs that we use on a daily basis. Plus as I've said they are also a big part of our family. Both of them are exceptionally well behaved, well when they are out in public anyway. Because they know when the harness or the service dog blanket goes on Bubbles there is no foolin' around at all. Yesterday the lady doing my hearing just could not get enough of petting Bob when I told her that all he had to do was have the command of "vist" and she could pet him.

FreeLady, a number of years ago Pam and I used to always keep the gates locked because of a problem that we were having with someone. They would come here looking for a confrontation over really silly things. Now we have no idea what's going on, however we have repositioned one camera on the alarm system. But we're still going to put locks back on both of the front gates. These animals are too valuable to have them leave the yard. Even when they step out into the dog yard we keep an eye

they did forty years ago. When every one claps I clap. When there's a hurump I saw hurump as well. When they laugh I smile while I sit there in my own thoughts. Only problem is over the years a few times I've been called on and didn't realize it for a few minutes. That's when I blame it on the dog for not letting me know about whatever. Bob takes the blame for anything very graciously, LOL.

Hey Grany, really good to see you posting again as we've really missed you. And sorry we missed your phone call This Evening too. We've both been doing all kinds of medical appointments. And I've got another one Tomorrow. Yesterday had my hearing checked again for the first time in a few years. They are going to be giving me some great new type of hearing aide. One of the best things about the ones that I'm getting is that there's a switch that I can use that will scan until it picks up
