I hope you all have a great 4th of July and do be careful if you have fireworks. They can be fun, but, they can also be dangerous.

There are not many holidays in these next 3 months.

Please be careful as school starts in August or September in your area. The small children don't think about the cars, they are thinking about getting to and from home and school. It is up to us adults to watch for the chldren and the buses.


See you again in a few months. Until then God Bless you all.

I am always amazed at the number of "days" declared honorable in each month. Peach Ice Cream day seems like the one I will remember. DHs Birthday is on "Cheer up the lonely day". Thanks for your time keeping us informed!
