Dec 5th - Another Rainy Day

It has rained most of the day again today. The rain is supposed to stop this evening and no more is forecast for the next few days, but it is going to get a lot cooler. Today's high was 43 and the low tonight is supposed to be 36.  We are then going to have some nights with lows at, or below, freezing. Thursday the highs are supposed to climb above 50 again.

Kathy made broccoli cheese soup and vegetable beef soup for the Substation this morning. The Substation is the little on-site restaurant where you pay for what you get, as opposed to the dining room food that is included with the fees people pay to be here.

This morning I took the "guts" out of a small dorm style refrigerator and put a light socket in it so that it could be used to keep welding rods dry.

We took the afternoon off and left here about 11:30. We went to Tyler to look around a little. We ended up driving around the "loop" around Tyler. We didn't actually go downtown. We went to Sam's and also stopped at a Goodwill that we drove by.

I thought you might be interested in an interesting item at Sam's. You know you are in the southwest when Sam's sells corn husks for $5.50/pound.

You folks up north may want to set up some snow fence to catch corn husks as they blow around, and sell them to Sam's.



Good night to all and may God bless you and yours.
