FRIDAY Too Early
Good Friday Morning, Everybody but it's waaaay too early.
Heavy rains in the forecast again today.  Wish I could divert some of it down HHC's way.
Thought I was going to get a good night's sleep last night and went to bed around 9:30. Alas, 'twas not to be as the phone rang at 2:33 AM. It was good news though, as FishGirl and her mom had arrived safely home after a 14 hour flight from Milwaukee. A long delay in Milwaukee, resulting in missed connections in Pittsburgh made for a long, tiring day. Heck, I coulda driven it faster than that! Main thing is they are home.
I tried to go back to sleep but the eyes just won't close. So, I made a pan of biscuits (expire date on the can was May 9th) so they're a little flat. Not too bad with some butter and Apple Butter and am willing to share.
Patrick, hope the babies and moms are doing well.
Ray, I meant to tell you that Rosie doesn't have to drink the birdwater as there's a big pond and stream about 75' down the hill from her den. She's not quite big enough to tip the birdbath over but some of the Big Boys have done that in the past.
The 150+ year old mill wheel turns slowly but may be faster than air travel these days.  I can almost hear Tina Turner singing "...Big Wheel Keep On Turning....."
Have a Fantastic Friday, Everyone!
Dick

Good morning Dick, Collin and all of TRT - my you guys are Early Birds today - had some sprinkles here yesterday, but nothing of significance. PLEASE SEND RAIN! Another 100+ day today :<
Hi Cath and Patrick - Patrick, babies are in our prayers.
Lots of drama at work and at home, sheesh. I'm ready for a relaxing weekend - HA - as if that will happen!
There's grits, fruit and fresh rolls on the table, please help yourselves. Off to work!

Good mawnin', Dick, collin, Vinnie, HHC, and all of TRT!
Thanks for the breakfast preview, Dick, and the main course, HHC
Dick - That photo looks cool and refreshing. Great action shot of the mill. Good to hear that FishGirl and her mother got home safely. You can paste your eyelids open with Pepsi
Vinnie - Bummer on being a sleepy head today.
HHC - Ouch on the double stress load just now. I'd love to send you some of our rain, and I bet George and Butch would, too.
Patrick - add me to the prayer group for those babies. I know you do a good job in helping.
Here is what's going on at the library these days. http://www.infodepot.org/
Lots of love and hugs and peace to everyone.

Good Morning Gang!!!
Thanks Cath HHC Dick and all of you out there praying for Rich and Tye!! It means so much to me that you all care so much!! The Dr spoke to Brooke yesterday and he said all and all the babies are doing really well. Tye is pretty much independent at this stage it could stay that way or he may need to go back on h2o again and if he does no big deal. Rich is having a little harder time remembering to breath but the Dr said thats not uncommon. Rich is doing as expected Tye is just doing better than expected. It's only been 2 weeks since they were born and to be honest it feels like a yr lol. Meanwhile Rose has been home for less than a week and has gained 4 oz lol.
Once again thank all of you for your kind words thoughts and prayers.
Rain here as well George!!
Dick it's always acceptable to get woken up for good news ;-) I use to be a flight attendant and I know first hand what they went through not fun but safety comes first.
Hi Vinnie! I hope you get fully rested today!!
Hi Butch I hope you enjoy your day where ever the wind takes you!!
Hi Doug Bio Collin Ray and all the other wonderful folks out there in TRT land!!!!

Good morning all!
Just a quick note before I get off of work. Quiet day here yesterday. Got in a decent amount of study.
Hope everyone has a great day. I'll try to check in again when I get home.
Prayers for the babies Patrick. Prayers for rain HHC. Prayers the rain will finally quit for our north east contingent. And a break in the heat for the northwest.
Dick, another great picture. Hi Cath and Vinnie!
Y'all have a great day!
Ray
