thoughts while shavingThe month of May is here … Today … Looking back, high temp yesterday was 82 degrees … Nice day…

A chance of showers and thunderstorms today, mostly after noon. Otherwise, partly sunny … High near 84 … 30% chance of rain tonight, mostly clear with a low around 61.
Thursday, sunny with a high near 88 … More of the same Friday…

Rain possible for most of the weekend and early next week.

A few reminders … Elwell Ferry is closed today … Have you ever crossed the Cape Fear on the ferry? … Short and sweet … different, a good experience. Free, located near Kelly … Google before you go … sometimes not available, mostly due to mechanical issues…

A reminder of events this weekend at Lu Mil … Best to Google … an area for free fishing this weekend … For newcomers … Lu Mil is located at 438 Suggs-Taylor Road … Something for all the family…

East Bladen fundraiser Saturday night at the school … $100 ticket good for two … two steak dinners … Tickets at East Bladen High and Leinwand’s, maybe other locations as well … A good cause … proceeds benefit the sports department…

Festivals close by as well … Chadbourn and Wallace this weekend … Springtime, a great time … White Lake Water Festival upcoming shortly…

I enjoy good comedy … James Gregory does a routine related to flying … He said he likes to fly at least once a year … so he could catch up on his flying and his praying…

My bride and I met other seniors at Wesley’s Chapel Church yesterday, noontime … tasty snack, good hospitality and played Bingo … Everyone won … Saw folks we have worshipped with over the years … some not as mobile as they once were … All were winners…

Lest you forget … Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 12…
