The day started with me going out to put gas in the car.$3.63 a gallon here! It keeps dropping in price! Kitty tells me it's still over $4. in California. When I left the station, the sky was so gorgeous I had to take a picture. The sun was up, but not all the way. It was so bright behind the clouds that I couldn't point the camera right at it. I reall
y wanted that picture, so what I did was take off my sun glasses and hold them in front of the camera lens. This is what I got.I like it.
Never tried that before.
Crazy little storms have been going on here. We have beautiful sunshine for a while (but windy enough to blow over the big mandevilla plant I have
under the hummingbird feeder - I had to tie it up.) , then suddenly darkening skies, thunder, lightning, and torrential rain for about three minutes, then bright sunshine again. Oh yes. And I forgot to mention the hail.This has happened a couple of times today.

There are something like 33,000 wounded
from Iraq and Afghanistan.
There's also an amusing Obama video at the bottom of the page.
And we have another 162 days to get through.
