Good Morning from NC.
We had a great weekend attending Charlie’s surprise 80th birthday party on July 4. It was fun to see many faces from the past and to help celebrate Charlie. Very appreciative of all who worked hard to pull it off. The trip to and back were a little longer than usual, due to the interstate at the border of NC and TN down to 2 lanes while they are rebuilding due to the damage from Hurricane Helene. Thankful for everyone that got home safely.
Have a Blessed Week,
Love,
Gatha

wonderful pictures of the surprise Birthday for Charlie!!! So glad we had the opportunity to visit with Becky and Charlie a month ago! And so glad so many were able to help him celebrate over the weekend!!!!!
Gatha – Bailey is quite the dancer to place as she did in solo and duet performances!!! That’s truly remarkable! Congratulations, Bailey!
Phil reported this morning that Aberdeen got 10″ of rain from the tropical storm. Their golf course is closed today with lots of standing water. A nearby golf course had 3 dam failures/compromises.
As of this morning, the reports were all good concerning the water rescues. A lot of roads washed out.
I cannot begin to comprehend the loss of life, loss of so many children, and the damage done in Texas. All of Uncle Tim’s family is okay with no (reported) loss of property. The river circles Boerne but they are on high ground. So many prayers go out to all who have lost a loved one.

Good morning everyone!
Hate that we missed everyone this weekend; up until the end of June the plan was to come down Saturday after cleaning up the fireworks aftermath, but I started a new job managing a local independent pharmacy and my weekends switched. The owner has a small regional “chain” of 3, soon to be 4 stores; so far its been a great place and much more relaxed. We did have a fun weekend here; what started as a 2 house gathering with us and the neighbors has turned into a whole neighborhood tradition. We broadcast the fireworks over FM this year since we had so many watch last year, I heard that the top of our subdivision was lined up with cars just for the show. Working on getting 6 pro shows under my belt and I may be able to start doing shows for some of the towns here too. I’ve added the YouTube link for anybody that didn’t see it on Facebook and want to watch it. Love everyone, have a great rest of the summer.
