Welcome Friday

 

Today is National Arizona Day. I’d go back if I could.

It’s finally Friday I’m free again
I got my motor running for a wild weekend
It’s finally Friday I’m out of control
Forget the working blues and let the good times roll

George Jones

Hail Weekend? Hail Yes!

It’s the weekend. I’m off on a mini-road trip back to the land of my forefathers.

Remember to hydrate and use sunscreen.

That’s it. That’s the post.

See you Monday.
