Today, the first Saturday of the month--I was wrong yesterday!

I am going on a ride early today.  I need to get those last 4 stars so I can have a free cup of coffee.  Let me see, a star for every $ spent that means $50 for a free cup of coffee-I guess that is not such a good deal BUT it is fun!

Oh my goodness.  It looks like fallish kind of temps in the 60s today, Sunday and Monday and then 84 on Tuesday but by Friday down to 63 again.  This is Minnesota, right?

Not much to say today except I am going to work today.  Actually Terry and I did work yesterday.  We took MANY items to the curb from the attic in the garage.  What does not go by Monday morning will be put in the back of the pick up and to the refuse it goes.  I do want to give everyone a chance at those treasures!!!  I took things down yesterday and Terry carried them to the curb.  Perhaps more today!

As I read the sports today I was reminded of a treasure I purchased around 1957 or so.  I would often listen to the St. Louis Cardinals on the radio.  They advertised cardinal pen and pencil set in the shape of bats!  How could a young kid resist that?  I sent in my money and sure enough I received them in the mail in a couple of weeks.

I think mine were burned in the farm fire but they were just like this!  I remember looking at them and using them some almost everyday as they were so special!

No, it is near 7:00 and the coffee shop opens at 7:00.  I need to get there before the crowd arrives.  I already finished my FP so I am good to get on Bentley and go.
