Who's to say what today is?

Some call it friday. others call it last day. some call it the other day. What difference does it make? It is today and the real question is what are you going to do with it? Dinner and a movie with a daughter? that is my plan at any rate. Try it if you can.....................

The 4th was great!

We had a good group for the 4th this year. Of Aunt Al's group 53 of 77 O'briens gathered in one place. We had about 115 altogether and several regulars were unable to make it.  We especially missed JL as he is the eldest cousin now I think. Next year we again eat on the 4th. Ya'll come.

The Heat Is On!!!!!!!!

No, not summer reruns, although they do seem to be now. I am talking temp here. Heat index exceeding 100 is common and I have to wonder if it was the same back when I was young (as in under 21). I know we had hot days, but no one was tracking heat indecies back then. If it was over 90 you stayed in the shade. Or the creek. Or the bayou.  Now the bayou is sucked dry for the cane and I don't know if you can even get to the creeks anymore. Up around Loyd Bridge you have to wrestle with the gators to get wet and Cocodrie is just as bad. The rivers are falling now as the flood is apparently over judging by the amount of news coverage it is getting. Making getting fish for the 4th a chore this year. But I'll get some from somewhere.

Yeeehaw....................................

Things are ever what they seem, if you know the truth.

What does that mean? It means what you see is what you get, if you pay attention to what you see and think about it as you perceive. At least, that seems to be what Sir Arthur Conan Doyle believed. If you don't get it, read the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. You will......
