Friday Morning July 19th

 Well Thursday saw us with a little more wet weather which was greatly appreciated, not a lot but enough to keep the ground damp and the grasses and gardens are loving it as are we with lots of clouds. We sure need a break from the high heat and ground drying breezes. We did spent about 4 hours or more away from the cabin with Nancy's hair appointment and then some shopping in town before we got back to the cabin around 2'ish and had a late lunch.

I started the day with a before 6 rollout to my routines that begin with some quiet times to honor my lord, Jesus, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name, all seem to be holding with this post. I walked around the yards before breakfast did some stretching and check on any deer damage and of course we are a daily stop over night for a snack. She keeps the back garden eaten down and now is even eating the squash plants which are quite sticky with little barbs, now that surprises me. We get her every night now on our trail camera munching her way around the gardens, but thus far she hasn't been inside the small upper patch by the back porch. She does eat the sunflowers along the outside fence which she could step over as do I, but doesn't.

I loaded up several sacks of garbage for the landfill which I went to after dropping Nancy off for her hair appointment then headed to the library for new reads. I did finish a read that I had started several years ago titled THE SON by Philipp Myers. What a read and then finished a read I picked up at the library title NIGHT OF THE GRIZZLIES  which happened in 1967 at the National Park in Montana. A true read with pics of the two beautiful teenage girls who were attacked, partially eaten and both died from two separate attacks by two different bears on the same night. What a read and very unusual.

Nancy made one of my fav dishes for supper which is stuffed zucchini boats with Italian sausage and a little pasta as a side dish. Wow, and we have enough for another supper. Did I mention I'm now growing yellow zucchini's which at first I though was yellow squash. I'm interested if they taste like the regular greens ones. The tomato's are growing and should be turning as I saw some ripe ones in some gardens on the way to Sparta. Lots of green ones thus far on my plants that the brat deer haven't eaten, oh well.

We played a game of hand, knee and foot after supper as we got another lite rain which was welcomed and Nancy slaughtered me again with wins in 3 out of the 4 hands, anyhow its been awhile since we played and it was fun. I tuned into the RNC and listen to great speeches by folks who love this nation and Trump's policies and him as well. So many folks loved him before he pointed out what the corrupt politicians in D.C. were doing to the working class of America which caused him to throw his hat in the ring for potus, and he won which really upset the establishment and still does today. He without a doubt is a man who loves the USA and his brash talk about how to save this country and quickly to point out the failures of those who are in charge as we speak. We need a strong leader and GOD spared him last week for this job as he was a proven leader without the help of the other party which lied, fabricated injustices and fought him constantly with career corrupt politicians who were and are still afraid of his exposing them of their duplicity, LATER
