Grand Rivers, KY – September 14, 2008

The show last night was wonderful. The entertainers were talented and versatile. There was music from every genre. Swing, Motown, Oldies, Country and Gospel, just to name some. There was also a tribute to Hee Haw and Ed Sullivan. We both thoroughly enjoyed it and were glad we went.

The past couple of days have been very hot and humid. It is supposed to cool off later today or tomorrow. We will be glad when that happens, it’s hard to work when it’s so hot.

This morning the wind picked up a lot. We got wind gusts up to 45 mph. This is courtesy of Hurricane Ike. There was very little rain, just the high wind that lasted until mid afternoon. The marina, and the city, lost power mid-morning and it is not expected to be restored until tomorrow. We also lost cellphone coverage. We heard there was a downed tower.

Our plans for tonight have been postponed. We were going to go out to dinner to Patti’s, a “must go to” place but with no power they are not open.
