...and a disgruntled tax payer...
I smoke and I drink
and every time I blink
I have a tiny dream.

But as bad as I am

I'm proud of the fact
that I'm worse than I seem.

Today was a beautiful day, weather wise. Tonight, on the other hand we will have partly cloudy skies this evening, giving way to occasional showers overnight. The Low tonight will be in the lower 60's F. with a relative humidity of 59% and a dew point around 50F. There is a 60% chance of rain tonight, and it climbs to 80% tomorrow. The barometer is steady at 30.00. Winds are East/Southeast at 5 to 10 mph. Our sun will rise tomorrow at 6:44AM.

I was up this morning at 2AM in order to get a good parking space for the set up. Set-up went well. Sherry came over at about 6AM. We were finished and ready for business by 8. All in all a very good show. Crowds were heavy throughout the day.
