it rained so hard that the water came in my bulkhead and flooded the basement some. I've seen enough rain for quite a while. Worse, it didn't even phase those catipillars, they are still crawling around even on the roof.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Hey Karl the caterpillars are all over Pocasset at work so they are over the bridge and heading your way. It is a good thing I am not suicidal or I would have hung myself by now with all this miserable weather . 3 springs in a row now. Possible tropical storm by Thurs. Bruce take me away from here to fish on the beach. Paul

Its 1115 and its 92 degrees. We haven't had rain in 3 weeks. The good side of this is not too many mosquitos and you don't have to cut brown grass

I finally have water front property its more like a mote, but for I think that's still waterfront property. With the grace of God I won't lose power so the sump pump can keep doing its thing.

New project - better drainage.

Once that project is complete, a drought is sure to follow.

The Frogs have moved into my swimming pool. They are chlorine white but that doesn't seem to bother them. Think maybe its an amphibian plot to take over our world?
