EDD's Drive in - Pascagoula

I don't think it's been a drive in, in years. There is a parking lot and you pull up and stand in line to give your order which is not fun in South Mississippi's heat and humidity. But they have a loyal fan base.

Judge blocks Mississippi open-carry gun law.

JACKSON -- A state judge has blocked Mississippi's open-carry gun law from taking effect next week, writing in a Friday ruling the law was vague and an injunction was needed to prevent irreparable harm.

Hinds County Circuit Judge Winston Kidd scheduled a hearing for July 8 to consider more arguments about whether to extend the injunction.

Hinds County District Attorney Robert Shuler Smith had requested the law be blocked, and Kidd granted the temporary injunction during an emergency hearing.

House Bill 2 clarifies that people in Mississippi don't need any kind of state-issued permit to carry a gun that's not concealed.

Blueberries

We are in a hot and humid, breezy cycle with a chance of rain, everyday. The highs have been in the low 90's.

But the last rain we had last week.

It's really great weather for the outdoors if you are in the shade.

We went to a local farm and picked two bags of Blueberries.

There is nothing like fresh blueberries off the vine.

Guns out in the Open.

In less than a month, Mississippians will be able to openly carry a gun in public places in our state.

Law enforcement agencies are busy training their officers on what they can and can't do under the new law.

Talk about HOT

It has been very hot this week. Today if it doesn't go into the 100s, it will feel like it. The humidity is drenching.

We had rain 3 days last week but only a slight chance of rain tomorrow. These are days to stay inside or swing on a porch outside with a glass of sweet tea.

Here is a neighbor tending his corn before the temperature shoots up.

Since TS Andrea, everything has been quiet which is normal for June. Lets hope it stays that way the rest of season :D

Andrea

The hot and humid weather is here with a chance of rain for the next few days.

TS Andrea formed in the Gulf of Mexico and went east into Florida and up the east coast.

It was a fast moving storm and its many tornado's did not cause a great deal of damage.

thankgoodness.
