Its been beautiful in Wisconsin this last week. In the 70's, low humidity. But still no rain. The crops are getting pretty thirsty.
Heat and humidity is supposed to climb this week and there are a chance of showers most days. I sure hope we get some.
Whats it like in the rest of the country?

Same-ish, though it usually goes up and down about four times per day.

On the cool side, except in parking lots. About 70 degrees, looks like possible rain but I haven't heard the forecast.

It has been very mild here the last week low to mid 70's. Cool breezes and going down in the 50's at night. great sleeping weather.

Gas is 2.79 a gallon here. It varies about $.50 every other day

I was also curious about the price of milk. Maybe the wife is doing the shopping more than me lately, but is it really over $5.00 a gallon.

It's not that bad - not here, not yet - but it has gone up a lot lately.

Its $2.99 here in the Dairy state. It has been going up steadily. Farmers here are getting a pretty good price for their milk right now but I read the other day the price in the store wont be rising anymore, because people will quit buying it. A lot of fluid milk is going for cheese these days. Usually there is more milk available in the summer because the schools are out but that doesnt seem to be the case this year.

Ah, Lefty, exactly what is that picture? It kind of reminds me of the muppets or something. Just wondering. Maybe my eyesight is failing me.

Gas is priced at $2.95 as an average around my area. The Mrs. does the shopping so I have no idea what a gallon of milk goes for these days. A case of Molson (28 pack) at Costco is about $17.00. That much I do know.

That, Bette, is what we call a Raving Rabbid.

What the heck is a Raving Rabbid, you may ask? It's a character from a Nintendo Wii game.

The game itself is OK, but I find the characters absolutely hilarious.

They made some funny little videos starring them too, if anyone's interested:

Raving Rabbid, huh? I know someone that the raving part would fit very well. No names though.
