Thoughts While ShavingOut of town for a couple of days … renewing old acquaintances from NC, Virginia and West Virginia … A fun time, about as much fun as a senior, senior citizen can have, I suppose. Thanks for the inquiries…

As I grow older, I tend to leave a trail, most caused by my own miscues…

Many newspaper headlines are very troubling … A couple related to high school graduates receiving diplomas, and charged with serious crimes, including murder, issues included illegal drugs use and sales … Not in Bladen, but nearby.

Stock market news is improving, slowly.

At the meeting I attended, several good speakers … included one that centered around the operation by farmers of farm equipment assisted by technology … down to the planting and application of chemicals … even how straight the rows are…

I came from an era where it was one individual, one mule or horse and one, one-row planter or fertilizer distributor … usually both, but one row at the time.

Weather forecast for Bladen County, NC … Sunny today with a high near 89. Mostly clear tonight, low around 64. Sunday (Father’s Day), mostly sunny with a high near 92…

If there’s anything better than heading off for a few days, it’s returning and back to a regular routine…

MacKenzie Gore, Whiteville, NC native … had a good outing vs. the Astros Thursday … had a shutout for 5 2/3 innings with 4 strikeouts … Gave up 4 hits, no earned runs … Nationals win 4-1 in 10-innings…

“Why don’t they have Father’s Day Sales? Because Fathers are priceless.”

“What did the Panda give his daddy for Father’s Day? A bear hug.”

“Why did the kids give their dad a blanket for Father’s Day” Because they thought he was the coolest dad.”
