Well, this is quite unusal! I mean when does it happen that Birdie, gets to open the coffee room? Woohoo! sitting here looking at Signal Butte and the Superstition Mountains in the near distance. Beautiful sight to see with the sun rising over them. I remember the Super Mtns having a western TV show many years ago and then there was the song! It was nice to see the mountains that were made famous by those things. Like seeing Diamond Head in Hawaii.
Thought I'd check and see who was brewing coffee this morning since Soos has been let out of work prison. Oh my, that girl is going to start getting into trouble because she now has all day to do the "Thing" (anything, everything, nothing, something). Hope everyone on the road is safe today.
My coffee this morning is the last of the French Vanilla. Will fix an egg scramble then do a couple of projects around the rig before it hits 100 degrees this a.m. Come on in and we will find some more coffee pouches to brew you some fresh java. Above all have fun today; you only get this day one time - no overs!

(YAWN........GOOD MORNING BIRDIE AND ALL!
Nice to find this kitchen open for breakfast!
I was up about two hours ago, but was helping the kids get ready for all they have going on today. Loaded jello shots into coolers to take to graduation party Mandy is supposed to be at from noon to 2:00, which is in the middle of her golf tournament which she is in today, helped feed their huge pony-sized dogs, fed Molly, whose appetite has come back, thank heavens, found spare toothbrushes as they forgot theirs, found out how Joe's father is doing in the hospital----they cauterized a bleeding ulcer in his stomach yesterday----- talked about the bonfire they were at last night, and now here I am!
The weather is warm (60 deg. F.), humid, very dark and grey and looks like more rain on the way. All in all, not a bad morning so far. If it doesn't rain today, I will head to the dump, and if it does----another day will do. I can now go in the middle of the week as well as on Saturdays, so that will be a help. Other than the dump, I need to vacuum the house again, vacuum the leanto using my Honda generator to power my vacuum cleaner, re-stuff the walls down there with oakum, make up my bed, and get ready to spend some nice summer nights down there. I also need to get my canoe out of the cellar and make sure it's ready for some paddling. I think I need to resurface the gunwales.
The trailer still looks wonderful after my cleaning and waxing the outside, even after all this rain dripping off the roof. No black streaks are back, yet!
I need to call the porta-potty company today, also, and order two of them for the summer. Then get the huge shelter Ruckus-ready, getting all the propane tanks for the grills filled and ready to roll. Party barn door needs the frame nailed back on. Also scour the party barn itself to make it party ready for the summer. There is electricity for the vacuum cleaners in there.
Hope all is well out there in campland. After a week to get acclimated here, I plan to take to the Silver Lake Campground for some lakeside camping and swimming. I love Birdie's vanilla coffee, and I am leaving some cold pizza for breakfast! Happy Saturday!

good morning ladies, thanks for opening the coffee room Birdie, I've been up for awhile
but got busy uploading some pics to photobucket and just kept going since it was cooperating
so well in the early morning hours.
Soos, I can just feel that coolness of 60 degrees, this time of year thats just a dream in
this part of the country but awwwww it feels so good.
It doesn't take long to heat up after the sun is up so I'm off to get a few things done.
Enjoy your day and be safe.

So, is your camera broken? You paint a good picture, though.
