Slim Randles is today’s Wednesday’s Guest with an essay I can relate to today in a specific way as it is raining here, too.

I will be offline for the most part during the next week and a half. First to spend a few days with my kids over the weekend celebrating my birthday without attachments to electronics. They have arranged everything for the party, and I don’t even know the venue, or what is planned for Saturday. I
It’s not even summer yet, and already Texas is sizzling. It got to nearly 100 degrees the other day, and I’m sure that it is pretty hot in many other places. Perhaps it’s time for some cherry lemonade. It’s easy to make, and I have plenty, so help yourself. If you’d like the recipe, you
