Sunday -the day before

[Barb]

..Ron's surgery.   We will all be thinking of you tomorrow Ron.  Hope it goes very well and have Lucy let us know, if she can.  Have fun at your SAS auction today!  It is hot, humid and sunny this morning, a typical summer day here.  At least no drought, all my plants are nice and green and lush.  But still battling Japanese Beetles.  I do get many each day dropped into soapy water.  Then they go into my compost piles.  You all have a good day.

Good Sunday morning everyone. Things are getting back to normal here. I had a good nights sleep and I took my oldest great granddaughter to the park with Kobe. She is fascinated with the fishroom which is a good thing. Hopefully she'll develop a better love for the fish hobby than her mother.

Today I will probably drop something on the grill after I set up a little wading pool for them in my backyard. After they wade for a bit I'll dump the water onto my grass and my grass watering will mostly be done. This is all contingent on whether it rains or not of course. It's pretty cloudy at the moment.

Ron I wish you the best and a speedy recovery from tomorrow's surgery.

Have a great day everyone.

 ...the meeting was good...45 attendees...speaker was our own Preston John who is one of the few people in the world who has bred Tetraodon Schoutedeni, the Spotted Congo Puffer...And the only one, at least in USA, who has bred them more than once...learned a lot about the one I have...

...I wasn't going to bid on any fish today, but ended up bringing home a young pair of beautiful giant sail fin mollies, a small group of misc tetras, and another pair of Sterbai Cories!  ... I'm  acclimating them now as we watch the Suns and Bucks play...

...almost have everything ready to go tomorrow...I've been taking daily showers th last 4days with this antibacterial liquid soap they gave me...in the morning before I go will be my last one with it...I've got several checklists that I will run thru tonight and one before I leave in the morning...

...last couple evenings we've had tremendous wind storms that are taking down trees and leaving dust, but no rain here...

...you all take care and I'll be back here in a couple days...cheers!
