Wondering If the Dust Will Go Away, etc..

We have dust.  Not just ordinary dust.  This dust has crossed the Atlantic and blew into the Gulf and came ashore here in Texas.  Where did it come from?  Well, the news says it came from Africa.  I wonder if it has a visa or at least a passport?  Had to go to town this morning and on the way home I took a couple of pictures.  Do you notice that the sky is more grey than blue?

OK, I guess the grey color doesn't show up too well in the pictures, but take my word for it, there is a lot of dust in the air.

Now, to change the subject, I want to mention a couple of things that took place awhile back on this date.  In 1953 the first Corvette was finished and this date is considered the Corvette's birthday.  Remember the '53 Vet?  

And a year earlier on this date in 1952, the Guiding Light soap opera appeared on television.  Before that, it was broadcast on radio for fifteen years.  It was the longest running drama on the air.

 

Overall, it was on the air (either on radio or TV) for 72 seasons!!  Now that is hard to believe.  It had 57 seasons on TV.  I remember it on TV from way back when I was a kid.  My Mother use to watch it and later on, my wife watched it.  Of course, since it was on, I watched it, too.  Let me know if there is dust where you live and you all have a great day, you hear?
