Today is absolutely lovely with plenty of sun and very light breezes.  This doesn’t happen very often.  Unfortunately, it won’t last long with more clouds and rain/snow expected for tonight and tomorrow.  At least we have today and God is smiling on the Irish.  We have a fairly new Irish Pub here in the village of Vernon, about 4 miles from my house, and we’re going there for dinner tonight.  I hope it isn’t too packed.
