I'm outside by pond , tried to get fire going, but my fire won't stay lit, there's no wind, bugs not too bad here by pond. Fish all swimming around all happy. There sure have grown quite bit this year. Water looks crystal clear.

Oh the Medicine Hat News reported a couple days ago that this lady in town found a meteorite in her yard last week, very heavy and they said it could be worth a couple thousands dollars.

So, Pond Guy, liner all be in soon??

Colleen I went out at around 11:30pm our time and saw a few flash by now and then. Laid out on the deck looking up in the lounge chair. Didn't see much after that and got chilly so came in and went out again a bit later and saw nothing. People across the road had their porch lights on which doesn't help matters any. Oh well I saw some :)

Sissy I bet we can't get that plan anymore. I know there is a T-mobile tower about 3 miles up the road in my friends back yard. She gets paid for them to have it there each month. She's got big tall huge trees to hide it somewhat. I'll do some checking and thanks for the info and that's a good deal for 2 phones!

Just checked and it's $60. per month for what you get now if I got it right. We already pay $30. per month now for 1000 mins for one phone w/ no contract so back to the drawing board.

Funny because here my plan is 50 dollars for the 1000 minutes ,Friends from NJ who just moved down here got the new plan and 2 free phones .They must price them by state but I did get it when they were have a special introduce yourself sale here and as long as i keep it up to date they can't change it .

We had a big storm last night, clouds still hanging around, and poor Poppy still scared for her life! I'm lucky, not as windy here in my yard, I'm sort of in a valley, surrounded by big trees, wind gusts and down drafts are about it, pop up tent held in place, I did tie it down to fence too. Cool Sissy! You got a lay's collectable!

Hopefully the hubby will be home tomorrow or tonight and we can sit under it and enjoy the pond together. He likes to sit on the swing bench and I got new cushions for benches dirt cheap, 50% off the 50%! Some don't match but neither does most of my stuff!
I'm happy with what I got and didn't spend much! Can't wait for hubby to see it!!
Oh ya, I got cheap white led lights after Christmas and put them under the red tent! :)
