Good evening Illinois, Ken, Shaun, John, and Sean!

Another hot and humid day today. The weather guy said we would have cooler temperatures today with rain, took its sweet time getting here, because its raining now. Hurricane Gordon will be here Friday and leaving us with 5 to 8" of rain. That should take care of our rain deficite

Good to hear that John had a better day today. Anxious to hear what the outcome was.

The weather moron is calling for 4 more days of rain with Gordon being here on Friday, leaving us with 5 - 8" of rain.
