Grass as high as an elephant's thigh

Or is it an elephant's eye...

Well my grass was thigh high and I was out mowing the yard last night at9 p.m and then again at 6:30 this morning finishing up. It had been a month since we mowed it, I think, with all of our travels.

Speaking of travelling, I am back in Michigan, 100 miles from Chicago. It was 63 degrees this afternoon when I landed and the low tonight is 43. It will get "up" to 72 tomorrow. It is glorious!

I am headed back home tomorrow afternoon and I sure hope that cool front I heard about has arrived or is on it's way for Sat. a.m.

See you guys then!

Cathy, thank you for the encouraging comments on my NEGATIVE blog. I will put your number in my phone. I am feeling better about Chicago...you are right, it will be MUCH more interesting than the boat launch route. Also,as Mark says the water stops will not take as long and THANK GOD the route is FLAT!
