Saturday

Well we actually were able to go back to sleep this morning after the dueling roosters did there morning wake call or maybe we have grown so use to them by now that it was comforting; not. Anyhow we slept in until after 8, yikes whats this country boy doing in bed at that hour of the morning if he's not sick. We lounged around until nearly 10 AM before eating some breakfast after our quiet times and internet updates. Nancy made one of our fav's which is fried egg sandwiches with mayo on toast, sliced tomato's, onion for me, hamburger dill pickles and lettuce. Wow is that ever good eatin' and mine last me until nearly 4 PM when I had a handful of almonds to tied me over 'til supper. After breakfast we got ready for a trip to Sam's Club.

We picked up items for Monday's get together with family on Labor Day at Amy and Tyler house then made a couple other stops before heading back to the house. The humidity had lessened a little due to T.S. Lee which was off the west coast of Florida but the temp's were still in the 90's. We read, watched a little football and Nancy made stuffed jalapeno poppers, a salad as well as oven taters to take to Dan and Carols as we were invited there for supper. Dan grilled great tasting fillets which were medium rare, yikes you could cut them with a fork. They found a new butcher shop in town that sells only grass fed black angus beef, oh my!!!!!

After supper we played some golf(card game) and I one on the last hand then a game of oh -ell which Carol won. It was going on 10 when we walked home from their house. I watched a little college football and the news before calling it a night. We Buc fans had one of the greatest men and players to fall victimof a stroke on Friday, Leroy Selmon. He is in critical condition at a local hospital. I met him and his brother Dewey early one morning on the interstate just after he came to Tampa from his college days in Oklahoma. What gentlemen they both were and Leroy went on to win the hearts of this area with his superb play and role model standards. Keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Well not much else is going on except the USF Bulls beat Notre Dame in their season opener of which Leroy played a major role in getting football started at USF. Well better go and we are counting down the days until we can return to our place in the mountains, LATER
