Every Dollar Counts

Just manned (womaned?) a moonbounce for several hours at Millville's SummerFest/Chili Cook-off. Made about $100 for the Breast Cancer 3-Day, and the second shift will go for a nother few hours yet, so we'll see. Yay, Team Blister Sisters!

I'm pretty close to my goal, but I'm working to help my teammates make their $2,200 commitment, too. I sure don't want to walk without them.

Anyway, that was my morning. This evening we're taking Emily's best friend with us to a minor league ballgame. Summer time! Yeah!

Airshow Week

Well, it's Airshow Week in Millville. We live less than 1/2 a mile (as the F/A-18 flies) from the Millville Airport. This Saturday and Sunday will be annual Air Show. Which means that this week is the fly-in week for the various on-the- ground display aircraft. And, it's practice-at-the-local-airfield week for the Blue Angels. For a few hours each day this week, it's like living on the deck of an aircraft carrier.

Last year Air Show weekend was cold, clammy and WET. This year the weather's supposed to be gorgeous. We can't wait. Fried food, spending 6 hours in a folding chair, meet-and-greets with the Geico gecko, stunt biplanes, paratroopers, helicopters, F-15s, P-47s, C-130s, skywriting, and the Blue Angels. It's all good!
