Sweet relief from the heat at least for a little bit. Raining pretty good here now. Td was talking to a guy he works with from cumberland county and when he was talking to him was raining so hard you could hear it on phone. Gut probably is getting a good one. Td done passed out. Hows the patient did she get her shower?

We didn't get any. My wife made me put the truck in the barn It took her 6 hours to detail the Chevy. Said she wasn't riding in a dirty truck. I didn't know it was dirty. I will say one thing that black Silverado shine now. We went to a car show tonight at Carterville, IL behind McDonald's. Man they had some nice cars and trucks. My buddy that I hunt with had his truck there. Took about 1.5 hours to see everyone of them.

Haven't checked rain gauge yet but it's nice and cool this mornin'. Hope it stays that way we need to stay cool for sunday clean up at pond. Radio said yesterday that after the next hot spell it should cool back down and stay that way. Accurate report to follow later.

Accurate rain report at the home place is 8/10"--- not as much as others but better than none at all. Still not too bad out but tomorrow's supposed to heat and humid up. Off to get a bite to eat---how's the patient this afternoon?

Peace and quite----don't know about the rain total--but Wayne the guy I work with said it was pourin' at 5:30 yesterday. I could here it over the phone when I was talkin' to him. Linda's sister said they got 2"--was goin' to have to put water in the pool, but not now. I'll bet BB liked that.

Spotty have you heard that Dean Urick passed away? Heard it may have been yesterday--no one knows for sure. Pete called Linda this mornin' and told her. Said old boar Mc Kinney tried to get ahold of him and couldn't so he called Dean's sister and her or Walls found him in his bed.

Yeah after he retired he'd fish or hunt deer or turkey. Him and Jr. use to hunt deer together--for awhile they were knockin' 'em down one right after another. Dean said they had to part ways before Jr. hunted him too death. I think he liked fishin' and turkey better(turkey were easier to haul out) Him and old boar deer hunted quite a bit later on.

Ya buddy I can understand that he would get wound up tighter than an 8 day clock! It's a wonder he ever got anything when he would get wound up and get to screaming.

I hear that! Him and Anita came up here one time when dad was still around and he was screaming and hollering before he ever got out of the truck. Dad took shot gun stuck it out the door and went k-boom scared Anita to death and Boar was hollering don't shoot you s.o.b. don't shoot it's me. Linda's brother Leland use to hang around with Ron and he didn't do something he was supposed to one time and he was chasing him with a pitch fork. Had quite the temper.
