This effort from this month in 2010 seems appropriate. It’s been a busy spring around the ol’ home site (the corporeal one), with a lot of planned projects and unplanned. Just this morning, I awoke to a giant pecan limb down in the backyard. At times like this, we quote Sammy the Squirrel from the animated movie Over the Hedge. “It never ends that way, too!!” Sometimes, like Arlo, I look at the road and let my mind wander. But only my mind and not for long.
Locally, the current probability of precipitation is 0%, increasing to 2% by 1 PM. As a former USAF weatherman and commercial pilot, I may possibly know more about meteorology than the average bear. But, like Arlo, I wonder what does that even mean? Two chances out of a hundred at least one rain drop will hit the ground somewhere in a five-count area? Guess I should research that.
I took the road once. Was worth it. Of course, that was the ’60’s.
This is a good one. So good that it really works as a standalone. No need to follow with more, just let the reader imagine what is happening. Thank you for changing the scenery and jogging our memories, Jimmy.
“pecan tree” sounds so nice to us yankees….
I left a comment earlier and it isn’t here. ? I like this retro a lot Jimmy. Well done, stopping in time to leave the followup to the imagination. I’m glad you had the time to change the scenery here today, and appreciate you taking the time to do it.
But, it is such a pleasant day out on the curb…
Well, what do you know, I got the first comment. It’s almost a shame that this is a Sunday strip, as I’d like to know what the emergency was.
Good grief! Am I truly the first? Hello, everybody.
In a more perfect world the only plumbing emergencies would be self-inflicted (kids are great at causing them!) and never happen at 3 a.m. like mine have.
Love their shocked faces in this one! Haha!
