HAPPY 4TH OF JULY, 2008

WELL, HERE IS GREGORY W YOUNG III

Wishing America Happy Birthday. I think Holly did a good thing putting him in this USAmobile!

AM I TOO YOUNG TO DRIVE?

Well, you are YOUNG....
But you can't let that stop you.

Won't be long, and his daddy will be home. I know everyone will stand around and cry for 30 minutes, and over again when Greg II thinks about this precious little boy. What a happy day that will be.

John is up in Plano with Brittany and Debbie. We are at the Beach, and Holly is in Italy. Wow. We are everywhere. Does any one read this blog? I don't think so.

We stopped at the fruit stand coming down to the Beach House, and yum...the fruit is just so juicy and ripe. Nectarines are usually hard to get ripe and these are PERFECT. We will probably have a few fruit salads. I love summertime. Not only is there lots of fresh produce, there are great sun days.

OH, just looked up and saw a flock of Pelicans....27 of them. They always fly in a V formation, and of course, that is so only the front few are stressed. They change leaders often, and use this method to fly long days and long ways. I think of the Humming Bird...how tiny..and how many miles they fly to get South from their North roost. Ah, but I digress.....

Well the firecrackers will keep us awake for the next week and a half. I like to watch for about 15 minutes, then that is enough. We need to water the deck and the grass, as it is DRY down here. I think this is one of the driest and hottest few months on record.

Happy Birthday America. May you always remain the Land of the Free, and the Home of the Brave. I love you America, and everything you stand for.
