Good morning GH.  Well. I have good news today.  The view out the Weather Window is clear and sunny; the difference is that it is only 67 degrees according to the desktop.  However, there is still no sign of rain in my view or in the forecast of the National Weather Service.  Sugar the Weather Dog is happy that no thunder storms are in the offing.  Yesterday afternoon, Mary and I returned from a trip downtown with my new Save the Lighthouse T-shirt.  We sat on the porch to watch the Grand Haven channel and Sugar the Weather Dog chewed contentedly on her bone.  In short, life doesn't get any better than this.  Sugar was interrupted a few times by various other dogs, but her bone called her back.  In addition, our neighbor was grilling something beefy, and so, that too interrupted her chewing.  However, the real reason for all of the above is my desire to tell the world that during our reason for another visit downtown was to get the T-shirt, with a the total price of $12.73. We passed across $13.00 and I said that I had to check the quarter that we received in change.  Luck was with me, because the quarter was from Alabama, and that completed my collection of the 50 states quarters, except for the Northern Mariana Islands and American Samoa.  So now, I have to work extra hard to find those.  Mary is going to put out the word to the people she knows on the West Coast, and see if they can help, since they are closer to those places.  As I said to Mary yesterday, it was a twofer.  Anyway, back to the front porch tale.  Mary went inside, and just after she left, a beautiful 1960s Dune Buggy drove by.  If that wasn't good enough, the moment I left myself, according to Mary, a beautiful 65 Mustang drove by.  Watching the Grand Haven channel is a car lovers dream.  Otherwise, not much is happening.  Our garden continues to do well, and my horseradish continues to grow strong.  So, that being said, it is...Tea time.
