Thoughts While ShavingOne more reminder of the Summer Sounds Concert Series that continues from 6PM-9PM today, at Cape Fear Farmer’s Market in Elizabethtown.  Legacy Motown Review will provide the music.  It’s FREE and you are invited.

High school football practice begins Monday.  Received a note from East Bladen’s Robby Priest that the Eagles will be on the field from 6 til 8 p.m.  See John Clark’s article on our sports page with all the details.  West Bladen’s Knights will also begin practice, but no details.

A $15,000 reward is yours if you provide info leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the burglary of Bladen Hardware on Poplar Street, in E-town.  ATF and NSSF are providing the cash.  Thieves stole multiple firearms from the local business.  Visit the article on our news page (ATF and Firearms Industry Offer Reward in Theft of Firearms from Bladen Hardware Company) for more info.

Wonder if former Sen. Jeff Sessions has regrets about resigning his position to join President Trump’s cabinet.  He is catching a lot of ‘flack’ from his new boss.  About a year ago, he provided a lot of support to the Trump campaign, helped push them across the finish line.  In politics, it’s what have you done for me lately.

Lots of info related to redistricting efforts by the US Supreme Court.  There must be a better way to do.  For years, in North Carolina, the Democrats ‘stuck-it’ to the Republicans and in recent years it has been reversed.  The real losers are the voters.  We may have some idea of what the high court plans are by watching and reading about a case involving the state of Wisconsin that the high court has agreed to hear.  According to some analyst, the case could have “enormous ramifications” for all states. I hope so.

As I have stated in the past, Thursday is my favorite day of the week.  It’s family night, meet my siblings and their spouses for a meal and catch-up on family happenings, beginning at 6 PM.  Been doing it for many years, never gets old.  Momma must be smiling down, it began before she passed away, many, many years ago.

Racing continues Saturday night at the Dublin Motor Speedway.  Check their website for details.

White Lake continues to ‘draw’ a crowd.  A great place to enjoy for a day, week, month or hang out year-round.

Bladen’s busy!

The tans will fade but the memories will last forever.

Some of the best memories are made in flip flops.

I need summer to be longer so I have more time to do nothing.
