The Threshmen's Reunion lasts all weekend. Pretty neat event. Lots of farm machines run by steam engines.

Mithril Chain Mail works surprisingly well, even against Elvish swords.If we go up to cruise night I will feel just FINE without any kind of bullet proof vest. Then again, I am so fool hardy I might stand under a tree when it rains to try to stay dry. If it's your time, it's your time. I now totally adore you!

It appears the po-po are expecting an added attraction during cruise night to go along with the usual carjackings.. maybe a professional group of law enforcement can keep the town safe. No mention of the chief even being in town during the event, just like the Illinois street murder. Lock your vehicle doors if your venture out & don't travel after dark.

Don't forget to wear your bullet proof vest to protect yourself From gunshots possibly happening. as you know the spd has a few unsolved shootings Recently and since the shooters have not been found an arrested yet, Be in best interest to protect yourselves. Yes rocket, those shootings are still unsolved and the guns still on our streets years later, aren't they? Mayor Lansford said then that he didn't want those people to leave the area, didn't he? Now this year, we have a few more recent unsolved shootings, don't we? Doing things the way the City has been for years just seems to keep providing the same results, doesn't it? Despite his oath to uphold the Constitution, Mayor Lansford would not allow City Park to be used to hear the ideas of candidates for office, saying that he doesn't think that cleaning up our community and its image should be politicized. Who do you think he expects to clean up of the violence that just seems to be allowed to occur here?

I came through town this evening when I got home from work, and there was a great crowd at Auto Zone for his gathering before Cruise. It had spilled over into north point parking lot. Looks like it's going to be another great cruise night.

We are having a cook-out tomorrow. I am expecting about 25 people. It is my hubbies family. This might become a yearly event. So much got done that normally doesn't get done. House pressure washed, broken tiles in the bathroom fixed. The list goes on. Looks like the weather is going to be great.

Looks like it's going to be another great cruise night. I just drove by the Park. In addition to the Farmer's market, there is a car show that takes up all of Hickory St and Vermilion St south to Kent. Joe's Pizza was setting up their tents and tables for outside vending. Other food vendors are setting up downtown. Porta potties and trash boxes are being set up too. I hope everyone has a great time at Cruise Night.

I had a huge laugh when I saw the gremlin though. Some nice GT cars there

Got to Cruise Night around 6:30 or so....just in time to see the upside down truck heading out of town. At least got to see it. Nice weather, nice turnout, nice cars,trucks and bikes. Another great time....just wish it would've been my ticket that got pulled for the car raffle. Oh well....always next year.
