When It's Hot, We're Hot!

Hi readers! Anyway, it's hot when the air conditioning breaks down. Earl would say something like "Finally quits the rest of the way." Well, Edna called Mr. Edward C. Slurry and talked about it for awhile and they finally decided to dip into the contingency fund to get the mess fixed the right way. Meanwhile, thank goodness we have windows you don't need a brick to open. That and we served free ice cream with your meal for anyone hardy enough to brave the lack of cross winds.

I'm happy to say that this year on the Fourth of July, the floating campfire actually floated and nobody got drowned or burned. It even didn't rain. Ain't it crazy to be happy over so many things that didn't happen. I mean, it makes a kind of sense, but somehow it all seems backward.

Maeve got herself a bird feeder to hang from the eaves of her porch. Everyone told her she wouldn't have any bird diners because of her friend Ethan and his mate keep raising families in the trees near the house. Ethan, you might not know, is a friend of Maeve's that happens to be a red-tailed hawk. No-one knows why Ethan picked her, but he did. Came a courting at first with the gift of a snake that got loose in the diner. Maeve's just a waitress 100% of the time she wants to feed people and now birds. She says this will work out even with Ethan in residence so maybe it will. I don't know. Maeve comes up right about the most unusual topics.

That's about it for now in Loon Center. Thanks for stopping in.
Faithfully if not regularly,
Jenn
