Day 497 - Monday of a Holiday Week
Greetings, Monday Morning commuters!
Raise your hand if you are thankful for ANY day off during the week. I am!
I really don't like it when the 4th falls on a Wednesday.
Right smack in the middle of the week doesn't give you much of a chance to take a long weekend or anything. Maybe next year.
Today's photo is of a horse named 'popcorn'. Great name!
The twin white colts I've been seeing down the road are frisky and healthy, and just the cutest things. They aren't a bright white color, they're more of an eggshell or cream color, so I have given them names.
What are the perfect names? Why, little Foame' and Latte', of course! Ha!
I was the only one in the entire pool area yesterday - I had the indoors and outdoors to myself. I even went and got a noodle from the 'float' area and floated around for a while. Decadent.
Charlie and I met his daughter yesterday afternoon and we went out for lunch at a 'Family bar and grill' type place named 'Toots'. It had an interesting mixture of college kids, bikers, and families having lunch.
I had a dozen steamed oysters and a salad. Deeeelicious! Charlie had to help me open them, the shells were pretty stubborn and could have been steamed just a little longer to open more.
I prefer my Oysters Rockefeller that come to the table all ready to eat without any work, but these were really good and really fresh.
Charlie had a french dip sandwich with loaded steamed new potatoes - I tried some of those, they were outstanding.
Gotta get ready for work, folks! TTFN!

Is this right next door--the horse and boy? Nice picture. Gee, I've never had steamed oysters. Glad Charlie was there to do the hard work! A little cool up here today, it barely got up to 70. Talk to you soon.
Hi gang - steamed oysters were great - a good substitute for clams which are hard to get here. The horse photo I just grabbed from the internet. Not mine!
