General Chat thread for July
 

Morning all, I'm taking a few days off from work, smelling paint all day long gets to me sometimes :'(
Everyone have a good 4th of July holiday and be safe. :-partybud

I'm celebrating that ITS RAINING!!! WHOOO HOOO


:-bigparty

Amen to that! And what's better is that it finally decided to rain on a day that I didn't have to work in it also. Still, too little to late. Pond is drying up, and there are areas of swamps south of Ponchatoula that are completely 100% dry. Never have I seen such a large area of swamps simply dry up and turn into dirt solid enough to walk across.

good morning Mississippi

Don't know the total we've had since Sun, but prior to that, cent MS had only gotten a total of .5 inch since the last week in May. At my house we'd had fractionally less than where its officially measured, 10 miles away at the airport.

I'm just glad to have the atmosphere washed down, even if its a lil' thick. At least its not so parched & dusty.

I think my lawn has grown a foot in the last 48hrs. :'(

jr32560: Maryland (Aberdeen) is my hometown, but I've lived in Mississippi long enough to call it my adopted home state. Like your waving flag and long thought that Maryland has one of the best looking state flags of the 50 or so out there. (just my opinion)

What's going on guys? I just got back in town, went down to Houston Texas for a visit with relatives, did alot of relaxing and did some sight seeing. It's good to be back home and I'm especially glad we got some much needed rain.

Good morning everyone and hope you all have a great day

Me and my Wife head down to Texas just about once a year, all of her family is spread all over the state. She has one brother on the far side of Houston. I can say one thing about Houston thats one big town.I drive around Memphis a lot and theres not many highways in Memphis which are 12 lanes or more. On their roads you had better move on at the speed they are going or get ran over.

Jack, That IS one big city...and you're right about the traffic...them people fly over there! My relatives live in Spring, just north of Houston.
