top of the evening, friends....
i can't believe it is already september! what a beautiful day it has been - not a cloud in the sky and a nice breeze! it would have been a great day to ride and find a new restaurant to try out somewhere in our great state! its amazing how we take for granted such things as a summer day.
rode down to the caesar's creek flea market today. didn't buy much other than an American flag for when mine wears out. also picked up some fresh veggies for supper. i snapped some 1/2 runners and plan to put them in with a ham hock, potatoes, and onions. also bought some bread & butter pickles, as well as a yellow pepper and a watermelon. dinner anyone?
what a small world....i ran into a couple from the grove city church of the Nazarene this afternoon! had a very nice visit. the gentleman actually sings solo pretty often.
the ride down there was a bit rough, as that's the farthest i've ridden in a car. i was pretty sore by the time i got home. right now, i'm relaxing before dinner.
dale & naomi - it's great news your dad's surgery went better than expected. you give me way too much credit, friend. you simply reciprocate our wonderful friendship...for that i'm very grateful. you guys have been more of a blessing to me than i could ever have believed. your dad will stay in my prayers....i'm sure he'll be out of the woods in no time.
elzie - the first part of healing is admitting that you have a problem. its OKAY to have an affinity for chickens. we all acknowledge and accept your addition to riding chickens. we still love you anyway. what's this about hogs?????
shazam....if you bring out the old post 39 scrapbook regarding "inky," i believe there will be serious repercussions! don't make me come up there!
mary....thanks for the kind words of wisdom! hope your hotdog on the grill is as good as the dinner i'm getting ready to have.
david lear - thank you so much for the very heartfelt letter! while we haven't worked together for many years, i cherish the times we worked together, backed each other up, and had an opportunity to break bread together. you wyandot county guys are such a special breed!
i think i mentioned having 'breakfast at the barrel' yesterday...i've posted a picture that major bob booker took with his cell phone. okay....i know i'm thin, but i'm working on that!
i also posted a picture of my dad and my stepmom, mary getting attacked by 3 vicious dogs - chrissy, amy, and mary's dog, kelsey. i think he'll recover from his wounds soon...lol
enough for now....i hope you have had a blessed day, friends.....

Lisa, yes today was a gorgeous day. I am glad that you got out and enjoyed it. I hope the soreness from the riding wears off soon. Continue to hang in there and keep that great attitude. We are praying that you won't need another skin graft.

Great photos, Lisa. Some of those attack dogs there resemble some of the dogs that have been chasing me on my bicycle, but I'm sure they aren't the culprits. Take care of them. My two Dalmations saved me from a copperhead tonight in the dark and I had a heck of a time keeping them away from it after they spooked it. (It was night, and I would have stepped right on it in my shorts and tennis shoes.) You never know when those little guys might save you.
We missed you at HoneyLou's retirement party yesterday, but we thought about ya'. I know you would have been there if you could. The folks at P-5 and D-9 are still thinking of you.
Be well.
Mike
shazam might not have been the one to mention INKY others know about the book of collections! LOL
It has indeed been beautiful weather and so glad you enjoyed it, hope you have rested up from that drive. We were down in Nelsonville area yesterday celebrating my father in laws 80th, what a beautiful area as I know you love that area too. You are thin but we all know you are working on that and working out like you should. You continue to amaze us and give us all strength. We love you, Tom, Wendy and Alan!
Dear Lisa,
We're keeping up with your progress thru Terry....I know you have what it takes to make the very best of recoveries! We are keeping you in prayers at home and at church....and if there's anything else we can do we expect you to let us know!
Can't wait to see you back on the road next summer!
Blessings to you!
Peggy and Gary Crouch
