THE COUNTDOWN IS ALMOST AT ZERO



Well as you can tell the countdown to go back to school is almost at zero, however they still have a week to prepare for there students this year. I will also be at all the Colonial Heights schools today delivering paper products to the cafeterias. We need to keep a close eye on TS Ernesto, it looks like it my try to come up the east coast later this week after hitting the Gulf Coast of Florida. Speaking of weather we sure could use some rain around here in CH, it has been very dry this summer. It also looks like the temps will fall into the upper 80's by the end of the week. How about Tiger Woods yesterday, he won his 4th straight golf tournament, he just makes it look so easy, that's why he is the best golfer of all time. The Reds struggles continue as the fell again to the Giants, things are not looking to good for the Reds tight now. Donna and AL did yall take any photos at the Orioles game yesterday? Has anybody seen or heard from George and Mark, it just seems they have falling of the face of the earth. MICKEY

Andrew is keeping close tabs on that NL Central Race. He's a little worried about the "Red Legs".

Al and Donna, Andrew was very disappointed that he couldn't go to the game w/ y'all yesterday. What makes it worst, they canceled his practice so he could've gone.

Hi, George (and family).
Well, my first day back at work was very busy. As Mrs. Goulder, I had very good luck. Our PTO had a drawing and I won one of 8 $10 gift cards to the Dollar Tree! Al says that's like getting a $100 gift card to anywhere else! Sorry I didn't get to see you there, Mick!
