I had to take a friend to yet another eye doctor appointment this morning, and on the way to pick her up and then get back home, I saw 4 people taking down political signs in yards. Normally, they stay out in the grass until they just down. I compliment those people this morning.

We All Know What Day This Is
I am so thankful for nice weather today on Election Day. And it does my old heart good to hear about long lines of people waiting to get in to vote. Regardless of your political party, I am happy that people care enough about their country to get out and vote.

Thank You, Daylight Savings Time
TWIT and I would like to thank you, Daylight Savings Time, for an extra hour of sleep last night. I went to bed at 10:00, which would have been at my normal 11:00, and slept until 8:00 this morning. The Old Man did the same, too. We are well rested and haven't napped today.

Welcome, November
TWIT and I would like to welcome November. Other than the three days of rain in October from the hurricane, October wasn't too bad. We had beautiful and warm weather most of the month.
We started out November a bit cool yesterday and today, but as I type this it is 63 here at The Compound, I just want to keep on seeing the sunshine.

Another Summer Day
As I type this, it is 80 degrees here at The Compound and the sky is as blue as it could be. We've been fortunate for almost three weeks we haven't had any rain. The weatherazzi is calling for rain on Halloween night - unfortunate for the trick-or-treaters. But as for us, we will enjoy this sunshine until it ends.

Cousin Coincidence
I know personally how friends and family will stretch the truth a bit and claim they are related to a famous person. I also know personally two friends who are truly closely related to a famous person. Both of them have very famous first cousins. A friend of mine from ZCO is first cousin to the current famous Dodgers player Mookie Betts. Another good friend of mine from my BSF group is first cousin to Johnny Depp. I think that is way beyond cool.
