Full Honey Moon

After dinner last night we headed down to Water Street. Our first stop was the outdoor boat deck at the Harp. We had a round and took a couple of photos. Then, off to McGillycuddy's and watched an excellent reggae band on their fabulous outdoor patio. We also hit the Y-Not 2 before heading home.

On the walk home I noticed how bright the moon seemed. A couple people standing outside an apartment building told us that it was some kind of special moon last night. Sure enough, it's called a 'full honey moon.' This rare celestial event received it's nickname dating back to the 1500's.

Old blood and guts, Senator John McCain is calling for more involvement in Iraq. Obviously this man has some kind of Napoleon complex. He's never seen a war he didn't like!

Happy Birthday to President George H.W. Bush. He went skydiving to celebrate his 90th birthday. I've been on the record before as holding him in very high regard. A first class guy with a lot of integrity. I'll never understand how the apple rolled so far from the tree.

It turns out he was completely correct back in 1991 on Iraq. He was adamant that taking out Saddam Hussein would enable even worse people to create havoc and destruction in Iraq. He was a CIA Director before he became President and had a unique perspective from that experience.

Krissy had the day off so we hit the grocery store this morning rather than going saturday. We still need to pick up the paint for the deck rails.

Some mowing and meat grilling in my future tonight. Everything else will be by the seat of our pants!

Later
