The British Open golf tournament is being held this week in (where else) England. Actually, in Scotland. We watched some of it yesterday, and more today. A big surprise is that Tom Watson, 59 years old, is tied for the lead. An even bigger surprise is that Tiger Woods, the best player in the universe until this week, seems to have lost his game over the Atlantic. He missed the cut, and will not be playing the next two days. I think I'll pull for Tom Watson. Maybe he can score one for the old folks.
After we got tired of watching golf, we took care of some housekeeping chores. Dusting, vacuuming, mopping, wiping down everything reachable, cleaning the air conditioner filter..... All of that took until mid-afternoon, when I took the floor rugs to the laundromat and washed them. When I got back home, all that work had me tired, so I decided to do some meditation. Ahhh, that helped.
Late in the evening, I cleaned up the outside of the truck. The rain of the past week has made it dirty, but it looks like the rain is over for a few days. At least we hope so.
We like to buy vegetables fresh from the field. That means we're always looking for little roadside vegetable stands where the farmers are selling their produce. We like the heirloom tomatoes, which have more flavor than the store bought tomatoes. We thought we would be able to find some here in Tennessee, but haven't had any luck so far. Look at the picture and note how different looking the heirloom tomatoes are. If you go by looks, you might never try these tomatoes. Go by the taste, and it'll spoil you for any other tomato. There's no comparison. Tomorrow, we're going to go out again and try to find then again. Wish us luck.
More later, be safe.
