Default You can tell that things are getting back to normal

I forgot how busy the police and emergency vehicles are on summer weekends.


Slow down and be more careful folks. Too many hwy wrecks and quad wrecks already these last few days.

Yes. And also, don't over exert yourself in the heat, and run crazy km uphill and down, and pushing your old body beyond endurance, until you bonk.

Right Bessie, you hairy old warrior? Pain is just weakness leaving the body. Until it is a stroke.

You do inspire me though.

Just remember me in your will. Guns is mostly what I'm interested in, but fishing gear is nice too.

Driving through the Blairmoor area yesterday, the eastbound traffic looked more like an exodus than end of the long weekend. And northbound traffic on hwy 22 as I was headed south was miles long with only short breaks.

Definitely seems like things are returning to normal.
