Well Saturday was another hot muggy day after a pleasant start and it ended with nice temps after the sun set as a stiff breeze kept it comfortable, but I'm so longing for some mountain weather to get away from this high heat and humidity, which is coming hopefully in about a month and a half. I started the day with my usual before 5:30 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.
We had to be in Brandon which is just outside Tampa for our twin grand sons base ball game at 9 AM, both of them got hits and played better than the last time we saw them play, but lost the game after winning big on Tuesday night. The team they played has the most wins for the season, but they lost to us in the first game of the season, oh well. After the game we came back on the cross town toll road and it to was shut down to stop and go traffic; there are just too many folks living in this area. We did stop at Lowes in Largo to get two boards that our first Lowes store was out of at nearly 27 bucks a board. Whats with the price of lumber today as it is out of site. Anyhow we came back home and had a nice salad for our lunch and a can of sardines which Nancy and I both love with mustard and onions. I grilled venison burgers for our supper around 6'ish which we excellent in flavor.
I chilled the rest of the afternoon except for hand watering the gardens and new sod, then harvested some lettuces for neighbors and Amy as well as some tomato's as they are ripening daily. I'm having to pick them just as they show some color because the nasty fruit flies attack them and ruin them quickly despite dusting them with Sevin, oh well. I started a read my son, Bobby gave me titled SHANTARAM by Gregory Roberts and its a real page turner. Its an excellent read with tons of history and culture with the setting in Bombay, India. It's really a great read thus far about an escapee from a New Zealand prison who ends up in India and starts a new life there.
Well I watched the Florida college basketball team beat out a very tough Auburn team and Duke was ahead when I went to bed at 10'ish. The Lightning and the Rays both lost their respective games away from home and today Tyler and Ava head to Amalie stadium to watch the finals in women's basketball with S. Carolina vs U. Conn. We will watch it on TV, LATER
