Happy Fourth! I was craving breakfast this morning but the regular restaurants around here were closed. So I tried Krystal, never been there before, and had three eggs, a biscuit, sausage and grits for under six bucks. Not bad.

A short while later I had six ducks and a hundred geese lining up to eat their breakfast right from my hand. I'm afraid something has happened to CottonTop, haven't seen him in quite a while.

I really have formed a bond with those birds, they expect me to show up around 0830, and they bum rush me when I arrive.

I bought a water from Nicky at the convenience store next to the tubing company. She's a really cute young lady from India that I made friends with three years ago, and we're still on a first name basis.

The tubing company manager Elizabeth is finally back from globe hopping to Ireland and D.C. so I dropped in to say hi. We've got a big group heading out at 1430 and I'm starting at 1500 to bring them back from the creek. I'm working on the Fourth Of July!
