ENTRY # SIXTEEN HUNDRED & SEVENTY EIGHT

Good Morning.
.
Would you think that I am silly if I said that I am glad that this is Monday morning, but I am. I thought that I would be all rested up by leaving off my regular entry on Saturday but it did not work that way .
.
I just could not settle down and relax like I would have liked to do. After all I have been trying to write this blog for nearly seven years, and I have not missed many times. So on Saturday I did not know what to do with myself. I am not going to try that again.
.
I just noticed that the count on the number of entries of this blog have just past 200,000. Thank to all of you Dad.

Time is so precious-do not waste it
.

Look over to your right, there is something that I am proud of, Its a Guest Book, please sign it for me if you have the time. DAD
.

Sunday was a beautiful day with a high of 73 and a nice breeze blowing all day, and the breeze continuing into the night. The flag was very beautiful on the Cam. We hope that this Monday will be another good one, The temperature at 3 A.M. is 66 and more sun expected.
.
We hope that we will be getting our Cam for the tomato garden in soon, because it is not going to be very many days until we will be thinking about getting down to business The ground is ready and waiting on us. And I do hope that you can watch the Cam as we are doing this.
.
BEGIN THE DAY WITH GOD .
.

What would you think of a good cup of Tea or Coffee right now, well if you will sit down right over there I will have what ever you want in just a few minutes. I do need a smile this morning if you are able to give me one.
.
.
The sun never sets on Dad's Tomato Garden Journal.

..and let Lucy Lowe and Laura Higgins tell you more about it. I would like to go but I am afraid that my 96 years would not let me. Laura has promised to send me a picture of Levi, he is my favorite Llama, If she don't send it soon I am going to slip up there some day when she is not home and take the picture myself. I have been there before and I believe that Levi would let me in.DAD.

.
Don't you think that I should stop ? Well I do, I have rambled on long enough for one day. But I am going to come back on Tuesday morning if my life is spared.
.
I hope that the day goes well for you. I think that if we all could smile more and be a little kinder to others it would help the day go better, let's try it today. .Sending Love all around the world to you.

BYE BYE DAD.

I'm glad you liked the photos, Grandpa! We were in St. Martin during the time of a large sailboat race called the Heineken Regatta. There were more sailboats than I have ever seen at one time. It was amazing to look out over the ocean and see them all.

Love you lots,
Mandy

DAD, DO YOU HAVE THE ALARM SET FOR 3 AM OR DO YOU HAVE A HABIT OF WAKING UP ABOUT THAT TIME ?
I ENJOY THE COFFEE NO MATTER WHICH TIME.
SOMETIMES I DRINK BUTTERMILK. JUST HAVE A TASTE FOR IT WITH A SLIGHT DASH OF SALT.
WHEN GOING BACK TO SLEEP I FIND THAT TO KEEP MY EYES OPEN THE SLEEP COMES SOONER BECAUSE THE EYES TEND TO CLOSE EVEN THO THINKING THEY ARE OPEN AND THERE IM ASLEEP.
A GOOD LONG NAP IS GOOD FOR US. sam

Dear Dad and Ms. Mary:

That Newseum link is very interesting, with all the front pages of newspapers everywhere. Thanks for sharing -- I bookmarked it so I can visit again.

Your great-granddaughter is very pretty, Dad! and the St. Martin's photos are gorgeous -- don't we wish we could visit?

I am thinking about getting a cup of that coffee now. ;) Have a wonderful rest of the day and evening, and HUGS to you both. Love, Jamaka and fams

Hi Dad, I missed you this morning because I went to bed earlier than usual. Usually I go to bed around 2 am and you are up writing your journal, but last night I went to bed before you were up, probably. Anyway, here is a big old Monday SMILE for you and how about I fix us some iced tea? You can show us what kind of tomato plants you're putting in... from the catalog pictures. I'm getting hungry for some good sweet homegrown tomatoes. Do you eat your tomatoes with sugar or salt, or maybe some cut-up fresh basil? Every way is a good way! Yum! My favorite combination is fresh tomatoes and fresh sweet corn.

PS That is so amazing that you have a great grand-daughter that is married! I hope I get to know my grandkids and great grandkids.

love and God bless,
carlene
