A 30 minute presentation took place at dark topping off a day of walking in the City Park to view vintage automobiles and trucks. We walked through the Museum as well as the Historical buildings opened to the public.
ABIGAIL the Museum Buffalo
was a sight for sore eyes.
No carnival rides this year as I walked HOME in the heat.
HOT DOGS for supper. The all beef dogs still had corn syrup in them amongst other additives that are surely not good for you, but the plump up flavor of these dogs was outstanding in a bun topped with mustard, ketchup and relish.
OUR CELEBRATION MEAL was centered around the ALL AMERICAN HOT DOGS, potato chips, St. Clair's Potato Salad, Bush's Baked beans and a home-made cuc salad. Root beer and water to drink. Ice cream would come later and I'm still waiting to bake brownies to serve warm from the oven.
The Potato Salad is awesome. Creamy good. The calories are outrageous for a 1/2 cup serving of this delicious stuff. OUTRAGEOUS.
CURUMBA. I must have had 5 cups of this stuff instead of a dainty helping. BUT who's counting calories? Well, I sorta am. Unfortunately. Still aiming for more vitamins and veggies.
MY HOUSE KEEPING BLESSING TODAY is:
Wiping down the Bathroom's sink and toilet. Sanitized. This afternoon I have got to crawl around on the floor dusting the wood floor then using the electric vacuum to suck up dirt from the area rugs. My goal this afternoon is to dust and vacuum the Living room and Dining room. The Kitchen needs a serious going over in the worst way. Company is expected to come by next week and if I get after it I will have finished my HOME BLESSING in time to share with loved ones in the comfort of our HOME.
Hubby has been overhauling the water pump of the old car we have the privilege of calling our own. He has put umpteen hours into working under the hood of our GOLDIE. God help him be successful. He gives it his all and it takes time out of our life. Fighting to save money so the auto doesn't go to the shop.
I am sipping cold coffee after eating Chinese Food Leftovers that were decent. Deliberately ate more veggies. Only 2 slices of potato, a cup of long green beans and 1/2 cup of broccoli. A slice of raw carrot. My stomach is content. I can enjoy the coffee and finish air drying my hair as I type.
By 2 in the afternoon I will put my work clothing on and begin tweaking in the KITCHEN. Dishes away. The floor swept and items in the center of the room boxed and hidden until later when I can decide where they should go. A quick fix doesn't always mean order.
Late in the evening I will watch the PBS series JAMESTOWN. The costuming is spectacular along with the stage setting filmed in Hungary. The scenery is very convincing to the layman. Almost finished with season three. As I learn about the characters of the show I become attached to JAMESTOWN of 1620ish.
I am blessed.
I have running water and air conditioning.
Food on the table and clothes on my back.
Time to sit and type out my thoughts.
HOME on the range is truly a 1883 house on the prairie in the year 2019,

I appreciate your sharing your work day. Sometimes, I wonder if other Homemakers do the same thing I do, sure enough!
The 4th of July is such a throw back holiday. A time to reflect on the simple and those who make our country great. So thankful that I live in a small town where these values are appreciated, just like yours!
