Heat, humidity, and thunderstorms/rain in the Hoosier State

A lazy morning........a hot, humid Sunday morning.......a lazy hot day!!!!! Will autumn ever arrive????? We finally left the hotel and headed to a highly recommended "mom and pop" type cafe on the west side of town. And.......what a great choice we made: wonderful country ham, potatotes, bacon, well-prepared eggs, homemade biscuits, and a bottomless pot of coffee that was just the right strength!!!! YUM!!!!

Leaving the little cafe to the after-church crowd that was standing in line outside and down the sidewalk, we headed a bit further west to see the little neighborhoods of Evansvilles and see the signs for Jeremy's candidate for Congress. After seeing some really interesting areas of town, including the new campus of the University of Southern Indiana, we headed back down town to the campaign headquarters and Jeremy's offices. He had about an hour's worth of work and phone calls to make, so we just relaxed and enjoyed the peace and quiet of the LARGE offices on a Sunday afternoon.

When he finished taking care of the immediate emergencies, we decided to do a bit of shopping for some house items.........but, didn't purchase a thing!!! How about that!!!!!

Back to the hotel for some down time, a drink in the lounge of the hotel, and then we headed out to dinner in the pouring down rains!!!!! It had rained ALL afternoon......and is not scheduled to stop until tomorrow. Dinner was on the agenda, so went decided to eat at the Outback Steakhouse as we all enjoy their food.......and after stuffing my aging body.....I would swear all sagging skin was filled out by the time I finished the meal........we headed back to the hotel to call it a night.

And so......with so much weight pulling me down, I will close this and say that as always.....

Life is GREAT.......and I hope it is for all of you, also1!!
