Go 'Stros!

The Houston Astros won a huge victory last night against the Atlanta Braves and now they are off into the playoffs in St. Louis! Good for them. The Killer B's strike again.

It is one nasty morning right now. It is raining and just plain yukky out there. Feels more like Monday than usual today.

Hubby returned home from the Gulf of Mexico about midnight Saturday night and then left again this morning. Today he is driving to Port Fouchon to catch a boat out to a drilling rig. Nasty day to travel.

Keeping it short today. Not really in the mood to go longer. I am troubled by many subjects this morning and feel like pondering them a bit longer. Between the horrible earthquake disaster along the Pakistan/India border, the complete meltdown of the New Orleans police department, the idea of Mayor Naquin to use casino gambling as the savior of the city of New Orleans, the Mississippi coast continues to be ignored by the press, and the litmus test being imposed on the Miers nomination by the far right (when they cry foul when the far left does it to the democrats) are all weighing heavy on my mind.

I feel the need to check out what is on the travel channel about now.

Sorry your Monday is blue!

Armchair traveling and fresh home-baked goodies might be just the ticket!

We need some fabulous auroras to bring beauty back to the skies. Especially in areas where the fall foliage changes are not that spectacular.

I did go to BSF tonight and that always brings a lot of comfort and insight.
