Joe is unable to get on the internet so you are stuck with me today! I think he does this periodically just so you can see how bleak our days would be if he wasn't here to run the diner.
I sure do appreciate him!
Have a happy day all!
Another cold one for us and I have a full day of dog walking ahead.
