I think ZZ Top would be better 20 years ago. But I have read a few reviews and they play at tempo and are still pretty good. LS just isn’t the same but they have everyone there that has been there for the last 10 years so they should be good.

Just concerned it will rain and be cold. Hopefully I’m under cover. They have that here because…[Read more]

Neat, always liked ZZ Top. never saw them though. I can’t recall them coming around these parts.

Still hovering around 80 here, but 50s west and north of us. High 50s at night. WE baby sat for my daughter. WE left at 10:30 PM, it was 62 there. Arrived home an hour later and it 72 here.

Agree. We are going to a ZZ Top/ Lynyrd Skynyrd concert at an amphitheater on 21st. Highs for 10 days from now are projected to be 60 and they are steadily dropping to that point. I hope we get a warm and dry day.

I have not seen ZZ Top and am looking forward to it. I say the LS tribute band in 87 with all the surviving members minus…[Read more]

“Fall is coming word.”

It is supposed to be 91 here today. That is really hot for here. But then the temps fall for the next 10 days. Fall is coming word.

It’s been a month now…1/2″ of rain. It’s probably been the driest summer on record here. 1 1/2″ for July and August.

Ha ha, ain’t that the way. No way I treated my parents so brusquely. No way word.

Ah, the first day back. I remember it well. The boys didn’t care, they wanted to go to a specific restaurant, then they kicked us to the curb. My daughter kicked us away as soon as her belongings were placed in her room. Her last 3 years were in a sorority house so the drop off weas even shorter. We couldn’t even get out of the car.

Yes, the wedding went well. It was great in fact. They are now in wedded bliss. After that we took our youngest son to Pullman where he will be going to school. He is doing a Community college on the WSU campus. He really wanted us to leave, embarrassing parents and all you know. I get that. We came back home yesterday. Now we have…[Read more]

I presume all went well with the wedding. Having a long weekend had to help.

Son left Sunday. Just as we get everything back in order, daughter calls and comes down Sunday for the night with the fam.

Son and family are staying through Saturday. A bit of a hiccup replacing the AC which was above the 2nd floor ceiling. The contractor couldn’t install the new one since the access hole was too small. They had to hire a carpenter to cut and reinforce the joists above. That took two extra days. Apparently, the AC was installed when the house…[Read more]

Our #3 son is getting married tomorrow. Big wedding party tonight at our place. I took the last 2 days off to get the place spruced up word.

No. 2 son and family calls yesterday and says they are coming down. Their AC crapped out and it’s to be 90+ today. Back to entertaining. No.1 son and fam are at the Outerbanks, NC. Daughter and hers are in Cape Cod MA

My #3 son gets married on Saturday. We went to dinner last night with his new in-laws. Nice people. It was a good evening word.

It’s a vacation week. No kid fams visiting Woo Hoo !

Yeah, for sure a lot of dough to put out for green grass. The last few years ours has gone black, like it was burned by fire. Very odd for PNW. We’ve had 1 inch of rain so far and we are supposed to get another inch today and tomorrow. Gonna be wet and cold here. Next week temps go up again. Looking forward to the weekend word.

Hey, congrats on the wedding. Another officially “out of the house”.

3rd day of clear blue skies and, again no rain. No rain in teg forecast for the next 10 days. The lawn is beyond brown, nearing crispy. Its sandy loam soil and porous as heck. The neighbors pump lawn irrigation from an aquifer that starts 75 ft down. We have an old well…[Read more]

Yes, there is that. Now the rain is forecast for the next 3 days. Seems like it is coming back a bit earlier than usual. But to be honest, we need the water. Our lawn is brown. We have to water the plants to a high dollar number. Temps have lowered also, which is good. #3 son getting married in a little more than a week. Things are…[Read more]

At least she’ll be back with some old friends lying side by side with the dogs.

We have 3 dogs buried here. Those were pretty emotional things to do quite honestly. My daughter in law who is a vet tech suggested I help the process along. I probably should but can’t do that. But the bunny is not doing well. I haven’t yet seen her this morning, but I will soon. We have been moving her from outside to a cage inside…[Read more]
