Cruizin' Clarinda

93º here in Clarinda, IA at 12 Noon as I start this - predicted high of 91º  -- Relative Humidity is 57% so much more comfortable in air conditioned basement than outside.  Probably will not eat lunch on the deck!

Weather forecast for our area.

Latest pic of tomatoes -- really growing.

And, there are a few tomatoes on them!

They look big in pic above -- this will give perspective
of how little the tomatoes still are................

 Well, you probably didn't know it, but I left and did eat lunch - barbecued some small steaks outdoors, but ate indoors.   Is 96º  outdoors, but humidity has dropped to 22% according to Wunderground at 4 PM.

  Here are a few photos taken at the Classic Cars shown downtown yesterday

 We went to the Subway about 4:30 pm yesterday with Oliver & Mary Jo Herzberg and then watched the Cruizin' Clarinda parade.  Lots of cars, trucks,  tractors, motorcycles -- did not take any photos, but here are some I got from THIS WEBSITE (Click Here)  Came back to our place and played card game of "Hand and Foot" afterwards.  Nice to visit with them.

First car I remember of Dad's was  like this, except was black
didn't have the horn and had black wheels.  Model A Ford

I drove car similar to this to High School out in
Nebraska.  Ours was two-toned blue.  Think was 1954 Pontiac

George Crawford Emceed the parade - Jr. McCall on JD in background

Just got some photos from brother Darrell of the new house they moved into recently northwest of Orlando, FL.  Anxious to visit them in October.

FOR YOUR AMUSEMENT & ENJOYMENT .....

1. Jim Baker and Jimmy Swaggert have written an impressive new book. It's called ...'Ministers do more than lay people'.

 2.Transvestite: A guy who likes to eat, drink and be Mary.

3. The difference between the Pope   and your boss is, the Pope only expects you to kiss his ring.

  

4. My mind works like lightning, one brilliant flash, and it is gone.

5. The only time the world beats a path to your door is if you're in the bathroom.

  

6. I hate sex in the movies. Tried it once. The seat folded up, the drink spilled and that ice, well, it really chilled the Mood.

7. It used to be only death and taxes. Now, of course, there's shipping and handling, too.

8. A husband is someone who, after taking the trash out, gives the impression that he just cleaned the whole   house.

9. My next house will have no kitchen - just vending machines and a large trash can.

10.  Definition of a teenager?

          God's punishment...for enjoying sex.

And as you slide down that Banister of Life you should pray that all the splinters are pointed the other way..


Til later, Lynn
