The Sky Fell Last Night.................

It rained one inch last night............first time in a month............
Nothing ever sounded or smelled so good..........
Humidity is up today and it feels good........too bad it is record heat at 90 degrees......
That is ok as long as some water comes with it..........
PS........ Will I ever reach 2000 posts............ Nah.........not even sure about tomorrow...........

1000 Posts - Plantdaddy - 1000 Posts

Yes this is my 1000th post..............cannot think of anything brilliant so that is all I am going to say.......I just do not believe it............

I may need a new blog name though to stay with the times:

Something such as:

Plantdaddy's Blogging Alliance,
Plantdaddy's Foliage Research Breeding Consortium and Alliance,
Plantdaddy's Sustainable Blogging Alliance,
Plantdaddy's Blogging Coalition,

more......????..........(the above list was inspired by 3 days in meetings this week)............

TIME TO QUIT NOW........................1000, 1000, 1000, 1000, 1000........

More Vacation Needed...........

After a trip to Maryland with Mosaic Mom I got spoiled........
I need more vacations........
So tomorrow I may go surf fishing.........maybe.........
and, after spending 3 days getting all my necessary equipment collected I may be ready...
Especially after studying all about CHUM.........I may need a bigger truck to haul all of it......
In fact, the water level may rise once I am done chumming.....
Mosaic Mom's temperature also rises when I happily bring up the subject.....the odor you know.....
She notices it...........therefore it will work on the fishes.........SEE........
It's all good.........
