Mother’s First!

Mother’s Day on Sunday!  Remember, she is the one person in the world who will always love you unconditionally.

Grandson Dominic and Grandson Tommy (new this year) will be competing in the State Trap Shooting Championship on Saturday.  There are age brackets and skill levels.  One thing sure, competition gets tougher and tougher.  Dominic won his junior bracket last year with 97 out of 100.  That is near perfection.

Grasshopper No.1 and our favorite Son in Law saw a production of “All Shook Up” at Fireside.  As the title implies, it was a play composed entirely of Elvis Presley songs.  With all the 50’s music it had to be good.  It was the first play I have attended in years that filled every seat.  It was a “full house”.  I have never seen so many gracious old ladies with tightly knit grey/blue hair curls.  It looked like a sea of “white” dandelions ready to release white puff balls into the air.  As my Grandson Dominic would say, “of course the place was filled by old people, they have all the money”.

Our local City fathers have decided to put new water meters in every house.  We already had meters that could be read for usage from the “road” and we would get billed accordingly.  The new meter has a GPS location and the meter will now be read at City Hall using a wireless signal.  I wonder what else they will monitor from my GPS “device”?  I wonder how many City employees will lose their jobs because of the productivity gains? I wonder how else I will get screwed as a home owner?  Do I sound like a mistrusting soul?

Great golf tournament to watch this weekend—The Players Championship.

Love,

Dad
