Tina Turner, when she let’s loose she makes you feel the music to the depths of your soul. And if you don’t want to get up and dance, you’re dead inside…or need coffee. Just get some coffee, it’s Friday.
The Milwaukee Highland Games are this weekend so we’ll be throwing; friends arriving from far away places; and we have nearly 15 pounds of pork on the smoker. It’s off to a good start.
Enjoy the weekend.
I don’t believe in pessimism. If something doesn’t come up the way you want, forge ahead. If you think it’s going to rain, it will.
