30's

No, not temperature!  It's in the low 60's or possibly a touch lower.  It's been rainy all day long, it was supposed to be high 60's with rain not expected until tonight.  Nobody bothered with a jacket, of course that means that it rained and was cold.  Not sure .why we were surprised.  The rain gauge had 1 1/2" this afternoon.
 
Anyway.  The title refers to the fact that Froggy & Uncle Crazy celebrated their 30th Wedding Anniversary last Monday and today is the 30th Anniversary of when Billyboy and I met.  We celebrated by getting pizza to bring home for dinner.
 
Today is also what the rest of the country observes as a holiday.  We refer to it as something else, Genocide Day.  Comes from being raised by a Cherokee mother who taught me about columbus as the Natives see/saw him.  Otter did the math, I think she said 611 years of culture destruction.
 
My stupidrightknee is bothering me but not as much as it was yesterday.  Usually, it's the stupidleftknee but the right one has been the problem lately.  I'm not sure if the weather bothers it or not, but my weathertoes have been active lately.  Otter also might be developing a weather ache, the left arm she broke 9 years ago sometimes hurts before a weather change.
 
Bill is going to see about more firewood from the lumber yard.  One of the guys he works with is going to take his trailer over there, possibly tomorrow, and see if he can get two more for us and then however much he wants for himself.  Bill said that they had quite a bit on hand when he got the load he brought home last week.  We kind of feel in a hurry to get prepared for Winter, for some reason.
