Today I saw a bald eagle swoop down from a pine and snatch a mouse from tall weeds in a roadside ditch just as I passed by in my vehicle. Nobody else was on that stretch of road. It was like magic performed just for me.

Hey who likes the zombie makeup my daughter helped me with? The zombie run is this weekend and I"m getting excited. She is going with newly infected but chewed up and I'm going with older full blown infected with more decay.

Very cool zombie bonding moment.

My neighbors are in some kind of trouble. Police were there yesterday, and took all their vehicles that were in the driveway. A car, a pickup with a trailer hooked to it that had his riding lawn mower on it, and one motorcycle. They waited for him to come home, and there was a lot of arguing. The man left after a bit, and left his wife there to deal with it. We heard one of the cops yell at them to get over top of their yelling, and the cop said 'you are suspect'.
Everyone in my little town knows he deals drugs, so I don't know if there is a connection to that.
No one is there this morning. No kids got picked up on the bus, and the man has never come back home.
If you remember, I have said they are the neighbors from hell, so I am not sorry this happened.

Hello the rest of Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennesee, Georgia, Florida. I waved at all of you as I traveled through. Atlanta traffic was crazeeeeee!

Holly, My sister and brother in law came to visit by car and I hopped in the car and rode back with them. It's been great fun but exhausting!
That sounds like an awesome road trip for grownups. Enjoy your vacation!

A little earlier I passed where you were going north. :smile: Kind of awful, isn't it? Especially for someone not used to backed up downtown expressway traffic. I deal with some of that to and from work each day, due to when my shift starts, unless it's a holiday.
yuck. I feel for you. I will say, everyone we were around were very courteous. They let us in and were very polite. Maybe this is the attitude Atlantans have because you all have to deal with this?

Yes, I've noticed that, too, and have assumed it's the reason. I know for my part as a driver I do to others as I would have done to me, or try to, which includes keeping the guy behind me in mind, as well. So, I don't let "too many" people in front before I pass them so they have a chance with the guy behind me, and I try to stay as close to the person in front of me as safely possible. Also, I almost never touch my cell phone when I'm on the road, especially the expressway, which is 90% of my driving time. This allows me to be most courteous and aware.

But enough about me. ;;D
