Something You Don't Hear Every Day

 "I need you to get me a new can of hair spray", said by my 92 year old father.

Ohio Valley Weather Update

 We had more rain last night and this morning, but the sun has been out for the past couple of hours.  It will be short lived - heavy rain and storms moving in later today.  But the weatherazzi is calling for no rain for the next week.  We'll see.

Rain Rain Go Away

In the past 7 days, we've had 3.5 inches of rain here at The Compound.  The weatherazzi is calling for more rain and storms today and tomorrow.  It's been quite a while since we've seen the sun.  This weather makes me want to get in the bed and sleep.  

Happy Memorial Day

 TWIT and I would like to wish you, faithful readers, a very happy Memorial Day. Take some time today to remember and honor all of the military that have given their lives in service. 

A Day Of Rest

 The Old Man had a rough night last night - he was up for a couple of hours sick at his stomach.  After he threw up (TMI) he said he felt a bit better and was able to go back to bed for a few hours of sleep.  He's in his recliner now drinking some ginger ale and resting.  I hope he will be back in action soon. 

Update From The Compound

 I sprayed my ground hog repellant yesterday, but this morning I saw what I hope is the same spawn of Hogzilla.  I got with my neighbors on both sides of us and they set out their traps close to our barn.  I hope the traps will work. 

Update From The Compound

 I'm happy to report that we've seen the finches for the past couple of days, but not happy to report that I saw a spawn of Hogzilla this morning.  As soon as I post this I will go outside and spray the ground hog repellant around the little red barn and the gazebo.  

Stay tuned.
