6:13 a.m. - I don't know if this is accurate, but in my mind Juneteenth represents the end of slavery in the United States even though the Emancipation Proclamation had been issued two years earlier. I didn't realize it was a federal holiday, so maybe that's why the campgrounds were busy this past weekend.
Yesterday was busy. I went and saw mom at her horse show, and then I picked up some lunch at El Barrill and had lunch with Dad for Father's Day. After that, I came home and took a nap, which felt great. Then Amber and I went to the casino for her "official" birthday. After returning, I worked on emptying the inflatable hot tub and relocating it on the deck. I'm not happy about this move, but I don't have much input in the situation. Earlier in the day while I was having lunch with Dad, we had quite a bit of rain occur. The forecasters got it wrong, but it's a mistake that all of us will take. Of course that means all the yard work I've done will need to be done again, but that's about how it goes.
Today, I'm headed to Clinton in what will likely be an event that will try my patience. Two softball teams with struggling programs will battle, which will be good for them but not really good for the umpires. I know my partner, but I don't really work with him very often. The rest of the week Jason is my partner, so at least I have that to look forward to. On the way home, I'm going to stop by Scott County Park and check out the availability of campsites.
