We will be hittin' the road on Sunday to retrieve our Sweet Babboo (Beth) from her first year of college. I have spent most of this week preparing for the adventure. There is the necessary work to be done to the family "Truckster" (oil change and tire rotation), procuring the needed supplies, and...at least in my case...getting ahead on my schoolwork so that I don't fall behind next week. Its a darned good thing that we didn't leave today as a major snowstorm hit south central and southeast Montana along with northeastern Wyoming. Things should be as lot better in terms of the weather by Sunday. I have heard reports of some pretty impressive snow showers around here earlier this morning, but I didn't witness any of that personally.
Speaking of the weather, it has been pretty lousy all week long, and for that matter, for the past month. The outlook for the next several days is a whole lot better. Tomorrow, Friday, will be mostly sunny with temperatures topping off in the upper 50s. That is still a bit below normal but a lot better than it has been. On Saturday and Sunday we should get into the low to mid 60s so that won't be bad. We are having a huge garage sale at the church tomorrow and Saturday, and with the dry weather we should be able to haul lots of the stuff outside. There is certainly a lot of stuff...as the interior of the horse stable next to the church looks like an antiques mall. It will be interesting to see just how many people show up, and how much is sold. What will probably be more interesting is how much will be left over after the sale is all said and done!
