Good morning GH.  Well. it is a little after 8:00 AM here in our fair city, and the view out the Weather Window is partly cloudy and the temperature on the desktop is a very comfortable 68 degrees.  Sugar the Weather Dog is still abed and so all is right with the world.  When I let her out last might, she and I were both surprised by the fact that it was raining at about 6:30.  In fact, it is wet out right now, so the rains must have continued most of the night.  No complaints here.  Unfortunately, when Mary and I drove over to GR yesterday, the crops we passed on the way looked in distress.  It is no wonder that many states have declared disaster areas in their farm lands.  Not to worry though, the head dude at one of the oil companies sees the drought conditions that seem to be part and parcel to global climate change as an engineering problem that can be solved/adapted to.  Maybe we can convince all the farmers in MI to move to our neighbor to the north.  LOL.  Any way, I have an appointment at the podiatrist today, and that is about the extent of my required activities.  Mary got a new book in for her business, and that is all good.  Me, I was planning to ride my bike to the doctor's office at the hospital, but the wet roads seem to preclude that, so I guess that I will walk instead.  Either way, I need to get a move on, so that means it is...Tea time.
