Happy National Bourbon Day

 TWIT and I would like to wish you, faithful readers, a very happy National Bourbon Day.  The Old Man and I will be celebrating later tonight with a shot of Bulleit bourbon.  Enjoy. 

Flashback Friday

 June is here and that means the Catholic church picnics are here, too.  From June to September, Catholic churches in Kentucky have theirr annual fund-raising picnics.  Usually for Friday and Saturday evenings, the picnics have lots of food, games of chance, and beer - lots of beer.  Back in the day when I was a kid, a family friend would take me and her two sons to the local picnics on Friday and Saturday nights where we would go throughout the area with big garbage bags picking up empty beer cans.  We would keep the bags of cans in our garage until the big semi trailer was at the Dixie Manor shopping center collecting the 6 aluminum and paying for them.  For a kid, if we each got 6 or 7 bucks, we thought we were rich. 

Thank You, Sunshine

 Thank you sunshine and the wind coming out of the west that will help dry up some of the big flood waters in Lanesville and Corydon.  

Update About My Friends in Southern Indiana

Heavy rains started early this morning and Southern Indiana got hammered.  Lanesville and Corydon, both about a half hour from The Compound were flooded.  The flood waters rose in Lanesville first and then washed down to Corydon.  The pictures I saw online and on the news weren't pretty. I felt guilty coming home from getting hair cuts this morning during a monsoon, but the rain stopped here shortly, thank goodness.

Update From The Compound

 I've been laying low the past few days and just relaxing. I took a break from my clothes and stuff purging but was back at it today.
