My son earned Eagle Scout rank and there was a big ceremony for him over the weekend. Grandparents and his sister came into town and the ceremony was very nice. I was grinning like a fool the entire time.

It was good to have the family together.

He was removing invasive plants in a local park and planting a bunch of native trees. And taking care of them, which was made much easier by historic rain all summer.

Much like "shit men," I initially interpreted that as a weather pattern that somehow rained history...

Ah yes, Fayetteville State University, just down the road from Ft. Bragg, NC. Well, she'll have lots of boyfriends. I took a couple of classes there during my off duty hours while in the Army …

Oh! Oh! perhaps you mean fun-in-the-sun Florida State. Yeah, one of my nieces got her masters there. She blew it though and got married instead of sticking it out for her PhD. I mean, what do you do with just a masters in psychology...become a life coach? Write a book about it? Yep, that's what happened to her. Her original goal of doing criminal profiling for the FBI went down the tubes. OTOH, she seems happy with her husband, kids, and living in Florida.

Best of luck to Pologirl.
