August already!

Beautiful day here in Lewes. 81, sunny and a nice breeze. Humidity is a little high but the breeze counteracts it unless your working outside.

Had some storms last night with wind gusts. Three of the five awnings had seams ripped out. Took them down this AM. Will take them back to Hershey to get resewn. I can get all three resewn there for less than one down here.

Jack and I were going to go into Rehoboth to see the sand castles that were built for the contest today. We were outside talking to the neighbors in back of us. They had just pulled in and said they were going to do the same, but traffic was backed up on 24 past the fire hall. They cut thru there and came back home. Took them 15 minutes to go less than a mile. Maybe we'll try after supper.

Sarah and Emily are supposed to be here tonight or tomorrow. Jack's driving me nuts wondering when.

Shell didn't make it down. She had a hell of a week at work and drove to Johnstown on Thursday to do a presentation. Don't blame her for not wanting to drive in the traffic. According to the news there was an eight mile backup on route 1 at Dover last night and of course it was also storming at the same time.

Calling for more storms tomorrow afternoon and evening.

Jack and I were just out on the golf cart for about an hour. More homes up for sale. We saw three that were listed as sold in the last two weeks. Some of them have been for sale since last year.

Going to grill for supper. Beef stew in crock pot for tomorrow.
Have to see if any of the neighbors are up for happy hour tonight.
