One more day to start packing (better finish packing, too!!)...one more night of work...the kids have one more day of school before they get a little break...

Thunderstorms tronight, nearly had to pull of the road once coming home because it was raining so hard. It'll be great for the garden and the flowers!

I am looking forward to the southern Illinois hills on Thursday. We'll be stopping for the night in Mount Vernon. The dogwood and redbud should be very pretty. Looks while we'll be getting a lot of rain when we're in Arkansas...I hope Stevie and my asthma won't act up too much, we always get sick in my parents' house. They never opened the windows, no matter how hot it was, and with all of that smoke from the woodstove and the dust...May the good Lord help us both while that house is being cleaned if we can't open up the windows!
