He has. At least before the primary. It was tv ads for sure .. maybe radio as well.
Probably. It was an unexpected interview. Yes I’m old and could lose a few. :cheers:.
Not a drop where I am south of Lafayette. Today was supposed to be a rain out.
Also feel free to give me your best long-haul flight travel tips! I’ve only flown internationally once and it was to Africa several years ago. I wasn’t miserable, but it could’ve been better.
Do you travel with Carrie one only? Everyone keeps telling me I need to do that but I just don’t know if it’s possible for 10 days. We’re going in July and it’s going to be hot as hell and I’m not washing dresses in the sink.
Geeze. Ours were wayyyy more. How early did you book?

Sharing again this year about our Sunflowers for St. Jude fundraiser. It’s in Kaplan, Louisiana.

All donation based — 100% of donations go to St. Jude.

If you have Facebook (yeah I know but it’s been great for this) the page name is Sunflowers for St. Jude!!! .. don’t leave off the !!!

Some have expressed interest in prior years so I figured I’d share again this year!!
If I died my husband would be fine .. if he dies first, well I know who to go to and have “some” more than basic understanding of the investments.

My husband is a farmer .. one day years ago I realized that should he die prior to harvest and a crop was in the field .. what would I do. He told me all the farmers around here would do what was needed to get the crop finished. AlI need to know on the financial side of the farm is the bank he works with and the FSA office.

re: Colorado trip in mid July recs.

I’d agree. I was newly pregnant and slept so much of it but what I saw was fantastic. My husband loved it. Silverto. Was a cool little town as well.

We took the bus up and the train down.
I wish we had more time to copy your blog .. we’ll be in Paris for three nights, Rome for four and Sorrento for two. I’m expecting that we’ll love Sorrento the most.
We only have 2 nights there — a full day and a half unfortunately. It’s at the end of our trip.

Thanks!
Anyone done a boat trip from Sorrento to Positano and Amalfi?? Traveling with my adult daughter in July (I fear we may melt) ... Sorrento is our last stop and she's requested a boat trip to these 2 spots that ALSO offers time to swim off of the boat.

Does anyone here have any recs? There are so many online but I'd love recs from people who've done it.

ALSO: does anyone here NOT use only a carryon and personal item??
Idk but an adult male died in Lafayette after a crash with a car last week .. not sure if the situation and what happened but ooor fella is dead.

“ As a mother of two children, I’ve experienced the miracle of life and will always support protecting the life of the unborn. I strongly oppose the use of taxpayer dollars to fund abortion, voting to defund Planned Parenthood and using my role on the Appropriations Committee to stop it. My pro-life position is unwavering, and I've received 100% rating from the Susan B. Anthony List for my work to defend the unborn in Congress.”

That’s from her website. So she’s prolife .. and doesn’t want taxpayer funded abortions .. and voted to defund PP .. sounds prolife.

Btw, I voted Fleming.

We parked here .. contact Julie Davis — bottom left side — about parking. It was maybe $30/40?? Was walkable to grove and stadium.

I’m not sure how early they start selling passes but you can get info now I’m guessing.

Here’s another place walkable that we’ve parked that has gameday parking. Game day parking option in Oxford

I’d choose Batesville over Southaven I think. Southaven has sketchy areas. You could also try Olive Branch.

The closer you are the more dollars you better have. It’s insane if staying in Oxford.

Also — depending on game time, if you’re planing to go back to Memphis, the Germantown area is good.
Probably 3 years ago it was $16000 for us .. house is almost 2400 sq ft and the pool house is probably 500 or so sq ft.

I can’t remember how many squares of shingles they had to use. Also not sure if the pitch but it’s not flat by any means.
