Monday




*********************************

Garbage Day!

69 degrees and raining.


According to the O-D's website, there's a Flood Advisory in effect until 9:15 this morning.

We've been sitting under some fairly colorful thunderstorms - a north-south band moving in a south-to-north direction - so I think I'll wait a while and turn my big computer back on when everything's quiet, again.

Right now, it doesn't look good for those of us who actually look forward to getting up at three a.m. tomorrow morning to see the Perseids Meteor Shower! If the skies clear, and after the first-quarter moon sets, around 2 a.m., meteors should be more easily visible until dawn for the next day or two.

In the meantime, here are some more beautiful pictures that Rusty has sent us.






And --- thanks to Dave Hazelden's camera and Mabel Bushee's timely use of it .....


.... the Class of '58 at their 50th Reunion at Dibble's Inn on Saturday night.

There's good news and there's bad news:

gas is down to $3.99.9,

but ..........



Have a good day, everyone!
