Happy Labor Day and hopefully, most of you won’t have to work today.  I fell asleep with my grandson last night about 6:30 or 7:00 p.m. and woke up around 12:30 p.m.  It’s now 3:41 a.m. and I’m just getting ready to go back to bed.  I may put this is drafts and work on it after I wake up, but I wanted to show you a few photos of the sunrises I took at my mother’s condo.  She is looking great and feeling a lot better and although she’s on oxygen, she’s alive and kicking.  We had a nice visit and I’ll see her on my way back from Iowa.  This is my mommy, Shirley Strilchuck.  Photo by Kat.

Good morning San Felipe and hopefully it’s sunny and warm unlike Seattle today.  This wet cold is the pits, as opposed to a dry cold.  It seems to permeate your bones.  It’s definitely fall in Washington, at least on this side of the mountains.  I hope San Felipe had a good crowd for the weekend, and it looks like the bands drew some folks.  Today is football Sunday, so I would imagine most of the places with big screen televisions will have a crowd.  Yesterday, we took my grandson to a Value Village and he was absolutely fascinated by the sequined skulls.  I was standing in back of him and his face was right on the skull and a woman walked by and said “what a great photo – skull to skull” and I thought, duh, I have my iPhone camera, so these are a couple of photos of Khye talking to the skulls.

Due to technical difficulties, I am not able to post today.  Please be patient and I’ll get the problem worked out.  In the mean time, please feel free to browse the site.  Again, I apologize for the inconvenience.

Friday in San Felipe and the beginning of Labor Day Weekend and there’s lots to do.  Tavo’s Revolution with Denny Flannigan will be at Rumors and they are serving an $8.00 fish dinner which should fit into everyone’s budget and the new and improved Tavo’s Revolution will surprise you.  The fun starts around 6:00 until 10:00 p.m. so come early to get a seat.

Update:  “The SFARP Summer Survivor meeting scheduled for the first Wednesday in September has been changed to the second Wednesday of September. Remember 8 September at 11am at Jollymon.  The meeting has been rescheduled due to medical appts in the States.  Sorry for the late notice.   Dick and Kathy“

I made it to Seattle and surprise, surprise.  It was raining and cold although the sun is out today. Carol Kinnaby tells me the Fandango Bar is reopening today under new management.  Marcos Negrete, I believe as he’s the one with the Mexican newspaper.  So, all you Fandango regulars may go back to drink your favorite libation.  It must be the week for re-opening because the Lighthouse Restaurant will be open tomorrow.  Their new season “new” hours are Wed-Friday opening at noon to 10pm Saturday.  On Sunday they will open at 8:00 am to 10pm- Eggs Bendict , biscuits & gravy or ?? Thursday 12 noon to 10 pm for dollar night with a Mexican flair.  Friday 12-10 pm Sushi starts at 3pm.  Please write these dates on your calendar to save me a little time.  Because my tooth is very sore and I’m not feeling too chipper, I’m going back to bed and when I get up I’ll give you some more of my ramblings and post a couple of photos.  Happy Thursday.
