76º with partly cloudy skies here near Harlingen, TX at 9:50 am Wednesday. High to be 89º today. Had a great "rain" yesterday morning. Hard sprinkle for about 30 seconds -- enough to splotch the dust on the pickup. It just can't rain here.

Just re-read this pamphlet/book I brought from Clarinda. Really interesting 800 mile journey in 1979 |
For some reason I didn't take any pictures of the work on the wood. |
Working at the work bench. |
Very interesting book by a Marine who found and brought back to US a stray pup in Iraq |
This book by a Canadian moved to France. I am currently listening to this one. |

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A circus owner walked into a bar to see everyone crowded about a table watching a little show. On the table was an upside-down pot and a duck tap dancing on it. The circus owner was so impressed that he offered to buy the duck from its owner. After some wheeling and dealing, they settled for $10,000 for the duck and the pot. Three days later the circus owner runs back to the bar in anger, "Your duck is a rip-off! I put him on the pot before a whole audience and he didn't dance a single step!" "So?" asked the ducks former owner, "did you remember to light the candle under the pot?"
Later, Lynn
