Merced County Fair Time

Tonight is everyone's favorite.. the destruction derby. Its free with admission. Some other fairs are charging a premium for this attraction. It is alot of crashing and steaming.

Also staring on the celeb stage is a group called Rooney. I never heard of them before so the internet and Itunes was perfect in sampling their music. They are a very young California surf oriented indie band with 5 vocal members... similar sound to the Monkeys.. oh I know they would hate that description.. There is a lot of Beatles pop sound in them and the harmonies are more surf oriented.

The weather has moderated here.. we had some overcast in the sky today and we are only supposed to reach 92.

I have been cleaning up the front patio today. I have come to the conclusion that the front patio is too hot for annuals.. even when they are watered automatically. So big pots it is and that allows the roots to hide down in them.

I got the fountain working again on the front walk up so we have front porch music.

Got to get back at it..
