I have been trying to do an entry here and can't seem to get it done.  I keep getting interruped (Albert) but that is ok.

The weather here is hot.  I don't know the temp but it has been more that a little warm today.  I saw the above painting and thought how great it would be to just dive into it and cool off.

The J-land awards voting is over.  Yeah.  Don't know who won.  Doesn't matter.  We are all great (and even of those of us that weren't nominated are pretty terrific) so it's all good.

J-land anniversary is almost here.  I "retired" from helping Ayn but came out of retirement briefly to help her with some last minute stuff.  I still don't have my float for the parade together.  Just haven't been hit with an idea -- or at least with an idea that I can actually do.  LOL

Went to visit Aunt Betty again this week.  She had her stitches out (well, staples actually) and had taken off her pain patch thingy.  She wasn't feeling really great but we both think it was because of all that was going on.

I am so glad to hear that there are others out there in J-land that like grave yards, and don't find me to crazy!  I would love to go to some of the huge, historic cemetaries that are around.  I know there is one here in NC somewhere that has Civil War soldiers burried there.  Also, somewhere around the coast is supposed to be some piriate that is buried standing up or something like that.  Cool.

Nothing else to say.  Trying to update my journals and make the round reading others.

I do love this phote here. It's hot here too, 92 an hour ago. Doesn't cool off till 9:00 at times. Graveyards aren't bad, really. I always enjoyed reading the names and wondering about them. *Barb*

As always a  first class and interesting post. You would love some of our graveyards stones that go back to 11th century etc.

Love the picture. And I don't think your weird about graveyards there are some real old ones here in Texas, nothing like going on a family trip everyone else goes to see the sites I head out in search of old grave sites.
