Oh my goodness, the Hallmark Channel is having a Christmas in July movie countdown during this entire month. As I have mentioned in past notes, these movies drive my wife nuts!
(Laughing-out Loud )
Anyway, the good thing is, the channel claims they will be showing two brand-new movies during the month. And I love it! I guess this makes me some kind of a romantic, but I fear not, because right after Hallmark, I will be changing channels in search of a good action-packed film. After all the schmaltzy romance, I will need to watch something blow up in a movie to restore some kind of balance!
Speaking of July happenings, on July 20 -21, make sure you swing by the Melbourne Auditorium for the Annual Brevard Home & Garden EXPO, which always offers FREE admission and parking. I will be walking around taking pictures for next year, so please say hi should you see me. Another earlier event happening in Melbourne will be the Space Coast Baby & Kids EXPO, which will be held on July 13th at the Melbourne Square Mall. It will also be a free event.
This should go without saying, but the summer is going to be hot, so stay hydrated—and I do mean with water. Most heat strokes are caused by staying outside in the sun way too long, and not drinking enough fluids. Please use some common sense while enjoying the outdoors.
On a final note, let us not forget the freedoms and independence that we sometimes take for granted. July 4th is not just a holiday; it should be a reminder of who and what we are as a nation. Happy Birthday, USA!
See you in August,
