Good late morning or good early afternoon, depending on when I get this post finished.
Kathie - Nice of you to look up all the different names for your thumb drive. Of course, I knew what you were talking about, but just couldn't resist giving you a hard time and to lighten things up a bit. But then again, I could say that Tony made me do it!! Glad you got your cable straightened out.
Dave - Lee is right about how fast they put up houses here. Unfortunately, that results in some shoddy workmanship. M&J are in their house over a year and a half now and they are still having issues with some of the construction that was done. They are not about to give up until all the problems are fixed. We were lucky that when we built this house they were taking their time and making sure they got things right, even though there was no safe room. You have to remember that most houses here are all cement block on the first floor at least. You rarely see a wood house going up, so we do have a bit of protection from tornados, unless you take a direct hit.
Lee - You should see all the construction going on in the areas all around True Blue Winery. They can't stop building new subdivisions and t he scary part is that these homes are sold even before the foundation is started! Trouble is there's lots of building going on, but no new roads to handle the traffic. Nice that you got an early peek at the cars at that car show.
Bill - How neat to have run into Rita's cousin while you were out for dinner. Nice that they recognized each other. You were right about the Grille. People still talk about what a fun place the Grille was when John ran it. Now John lives on Martha's Vineyard and spends a lot of time with his small grandchildren. No more restaurants for him.
Nancy - Glad you were able to take a shower. Got a race to watch today?
We had a nice visit with G&E yesterday. I'm glad to know they are just as confused as us with the wedding plans the bride's mother is making. We'll get to meet the bride's parent aa week from yesterday at a party at G&E's house. This should be interesting.
Well I see that I was right wishing you an early good afternoon. Time to find something for lunch and then decide if we're doing anything before the rains once again show up. Have a safe Sunday, everyone!
