Thoughts While ShavingWe have asked for rain recently, we have received … not more than needed in our area … Checking the gauge at the local airport and only about 3/4 of an inch has been recorded over the past 2 or 3 days … Just feels like more I guess … More rain in today’s forecast…

Rain, mainly before 8 a.m. today. High near 49 … windy, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Chance of rain is 80% … Tonight (Friday), clear, with a low around 23 and windy. Saturday, sunny, with a high near 44.

Mostly sunny, with high temps in the 60s and low 70s early next week.

Daytime driving in a drizzle is difficult, nighttime worse and long distance driving of an 18-wheeler would be hazardous for me and to others on the roadways … But years ago as a wide-open youngster, I would have tackled it…

Still not excited about round-a-bouts … or 4-way stops … but, best I can tell someone is…

Understand another Dollar General coming to Bladen, so I have been told … No official announcement that I am aware of … so location should be known soon … Labor issues apparently does not slow them down…

Remember how important splinters were for building a fire in the fireplace or heater when we were youngsters? Fat lightwood splinters … commonly called ‘fat-littered’ splinters.

My wealthy friends are smiling after yesterday’s action on the stock market … Good Day…
