We are also winding down on our summer music festival. This year they had a display called the Museum of the Moon. The moon has actual pictures taken by Nassau of its surface.

It is traveling all over thee place so you can look up here https://my-moon.org/ to see if it will be displayed near you.
Hope you all have a great weekend !!
Thanks everyone!
We made a lot of progress at my daughters apartment today. I’m heading back over there tomorrow to help out some more. I’m hoping they will be completely settled in very soon.
My father was discharged from the hospital today, he’s so happy to be home. He was having issues with his blood thinner and the diuretic. The doctors decided to adjust the dosages, it seems to be helping for the time being. I’m going to visit him tomorrow morning before I go over to my daughters apartment
I hope everyone has a nice night!

Good Saturday morning! The humidity is backI'll be working all weekend and I'm counting down the days till my vacation starting on the 1st of September. I can feel that I'm not as productive because I'm so tired. Hope everyone will have a great weekend ahead!
Have fun sewing today!!! I have tried so many times to make buttermilk biscuits... do you have a good recipe? Or what is your secret lol!? Beautiful pictures! When I was a kid we used to grow giant sunflowers and then dry and eat the seeds, brings back good memories! That moon thing is too cool.
So far it has been a pretty good weekend! On Friday I took Gandalf for a walk with one of my good friends and her dog Percy, they had a blast! Gandalf has to go to the vet on Monday though for a reoccurring issue (he has been such a sick pup his entire life), hoping we don't get any more bad news... After that I went with my mom to the local running shop and picked up some new shoes and ran 7 miles in them this morning. They feel soooo much better than my old running shoes! No more blisters and knee pain yay! Hubby and I got a lot of work done around the house and yard this morning since my grandma is coming in this weekend. Feels so good to get all your work done early on in the day and then just relax....... Think I will eat a big bear claw topped with powdered sugar tonight for dessert!
********** MILESTONE DAY ********
Good Morning, Good Morning, Fellow Milestoners!
Yes indeedarino, Friends. Another Milestone has arrived, and right on schedule.
We will discuss it and its implications once we review the daily data briefing:
Days to the Season: 80
Days to Christmas Day: 122
What we have arrived at is the transition point between the second and final THIRD of our Christmas Day count.
That fact, coupled with the fact that our Season count is in the final quarter and that we are only a week away from the start of the 'bers, means that things are just about to move into high gear as the holiday season looms.
Already, Halloween Zone has started moving into Crabtree and Hallmark has had their Christmas merchandise out for some time now. Any day, Belks should start assembling their Christmas section, the Blossom thread opens in about a month, and about 6 weeks from now, Crabtree will start putting up their main mall decorations.
(Yep, Guys. It's getting toward that special time of the year once again!)
Another pleasant day here yesterday, with still the lower temps and humidity.
No rain to spoil thing, either.
Today will see the temperature up slightly, into the mid 80's, with still only a 10 percent chance of rain.
This weekend has opened here in central NC sunny, at 65 degrees.
Have a Sensational Saturday, Everyone!

So glad your father was released from the hospital! Praying the dosage adjustments will keep working for him. Sending you love and hugs. xx

Glad to hear your dad is doing better!!!
so exciting !!Good Morning, Folks!
With yet another Milestone in the rear-view mirror, we look ahead to the start of the 'bers. And the first one of those will see the launch of Christmas Blossoms 2018, which always signals that the holiday season is right on our threshold.
With that lead-in, let's inspect today's numbers:
Days to the Season: 79
Days to Christmas Day: 121
Of course, every time a Milestone marker appears in our rear-view mirror, another one pops up in the windshield.
<< Which one, Crown? >>
Are you ready little voice, because the next one is BIG and it's only 3 weeks away.
Folks, we are talking about the 100-day Christmas Day Window, after which BOTH of our counts will be in double-digits.
Wowee!
Still the pleasant weather, with no rain.
Another dry day today, but the temperatures will slowly climb into the upper 80's.
For now, we are quite comfortable at 65 degrees to start the second half of our weekend.
Have a Super Sunday, Guys!
