    Hi everyone!

    Played catch-up after I got back with the"new" 12 year old car in early June. Then, I started lessons plus hired muscle was here a few times to fix fence, etc. Then was off to Illinois again for Dr appoint and It was 95 to 100 plus the 5 days I was there. Yuck. But it was less humid than what awaited me at home.
    Got very loose bridged 4 tooth crown re-cemented. Was worried it could not be done but it came totally out at dentist and is very solid now. Whew. He also touched up the one I cracked in half in March, when I fell, and that now is very solid (or as solid as it will every be). I like to say he did some tuck-pointing. LOL

    Brought Mom back with me this trip. She is in her house down the road and will stay till just after Labor Day this year. She is managing to cook on the gas stove. She was afraid that she would not be able to see the flame. She cooks all the time at home ( in Illinois) but has electric in the retirement home.

    The car did well on it's first trip. A/C work very well. Still do not know how big the gas tank is. still testing how much MPH I am getting. Used cheap ethanol gas. Have not done a good test with ethanol free super, yet. Getting used to new nooks and crannies and where to put what but have misplaced my check book. It is an a box somewhere that I used when stuff I transferred from old car to new. Getting used to the icky leather seat and have on gotten stuck to then one time so far., Teddy slides on them, my sheep skin slides off them and everthing on the center console surfaces slide too. Will figure it out eventually.

    We have had bad heat here but not as bad as some others. It was 98 heat index today Dew points close to 80, close to 90 actual temp. I did no trail rides today and tomorrow do think I will even be open. It is to be the hottest tomorrow and then cool into the low 80's. Ha pretty funny for me to say "cool into the low 80's" . I don't like it much over 65 or 70 and hate humidity.

    The fire works will start soon and I will go to the top of hill to watch, when I hear the first one go bang.
