Wednesday - Hump Day



Just a reminder - I'm running a giveaway - see November 3rd's blog. And I have to remind you - you must be a follower of my blog to enter (and it's never too late - lol).Thanks and good luck to everyone. It is a $55.00 gift certificate to CSN!

Contest ends today at 3pm - eastern standard time. My grandson will pick the winner out of all the names - I'll take a picture and post some time tonight. GOOD LUCK to everyone and I wish I had one for everyone.

Here is a gift for you - this might be nice for when you travel during the Holidays.

When you get the web site up, click on the state. Then the next window is a listing of cities in that state.

Click on your city and there are speed trap locations listed.

I like this one:

"The best antidote I have found is to yearn for something. As long as you yearn, you can't congeal: there is a forward motion to yearning."~ Gail Godwin

Think about this - today is the first day of a 365 day journey around the sun.



And "The beginning is always today." ~ Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
That says to me - everyday is full of new chances.

The speed traps are funny! I personally haven't been hit by any of the ones listed for the town that I drive through a lot but then again I'm not in a hurry when I drive through there so I am probably driving well under the speed limit! lol

Have a Great Day!
