Monna Arrived

Monna arrived yesterday. We watched MI-5 last night. If Monna gets back from Atlanta in time, we may go see Get Smart. The reviews are certainly mixed on Get Smart. Anyone seen it yet?

Project M

Bill is going to Alabama tomorrow for Project M. He is meeting our good friend, Ann Willoughby, at the ATL airport and driving to Alabama. Ann has a design firm in Kansas City, Willoughby Design Group. She is a rock star in the graphic design world. Check out the Project M blog. I'll post to the left also.

Southern Visit

I am looking forward to my visit with Jim & Dad. Think Bill will be out of town. Sorry to miss him. I arrive in Atlanta Sunday afternoon. Attending the Atlanta Apparel show Monday & Tuesday. Driving my rental car to Augusta airport on Wednesday. Dad will pick me up there. That way Jim does not have endure that boring drive. Boy am I ready for some hot weather. Finally a day of summer here today. My tennis team is in the playoffs tonight next round is tomorrow. It is an outdoor tournament and the weather is cooperating.

Twitter

Anyone heard of Twitter?. Looks interesting.

Link Fixed - No seems to get more attention

The first big planning and zoning issue is before our committee. I voted no to delay the public hearing. Citizens showed up based on the notice in the paper. Then the developer requested a delay. However, no notice was given to the public. Click to read the article.

Landscaping Saved by Elsie

I always plant large elephant ears in the front circle. They come up again each year, but I never have enough patience to wait. However, this year I couldn't find any locally which left the front circle terribly naked. Anyway, Elsie found some in Aiken. I picked them up yesterday and planted them today. Now, I can show my face again at the garden club. I actually don't belong to the garden club. Anyway, a big thanks to Elsie.


Here is before. I actually took this picture to show this strange "weed". I think it may be a walking onion. Anyway, the flower is kinda cool. I think I will treat it as a flower not a weed.



After

Graduation

Today was graduation. It's rather anti-climatic, because we still have 5 weeks of the program, but it was a nice (and short) ceremony. So, come mid-July I'll have in M.A. in Educational Leadership and an administrative credential. I'll be ecstatic to be done, it has been a stressful year. The first picture is before the ceremony (doesn't my mom look amazing?) and the second one is Dr. Petersen hooding me.

Where's the Beef?

Jim went down to see his dad today for Father's Day, so
you know what that means! Bacon Cheese Burger Baby!

The End of Era

Nancy (El Caporal) told us tonight that they are closing CCH within 45 days. They may open a new restaurant down the street, but that remains to be seen. It's truly the end of an era. You still have a chance to go there if you visit us within the next 45 days. I guess we'll have to move on to a new Friday night routine.



Music must accompany most transitions. Don't you think?

Tell us your favorite CCH story.

Strangely Effected

by Tim Russert's death. He seemed to always be on the TeeVee. He often drove me crazy as I thought he echoed the establishment line too much, but he did make me think instead of just react.
