Woke up at 4:30 when a bull elk bugled close to the house. Love that sound.
Coffee is made and the day awaits.

Coffee is almost ready. Looks like we got a little rain overnight. I hope we get more today. Happy New Workweek.

My 14-year-old daughter spent the weekend assembling a six-drawer bureau and two six-foot bookcases for the redecoration of her bedroom. She asked for minimal help from me. I had no idea she could do this! Her mechanical acuity has come as a complete surprise.
A friend suggested she might have a job waiting for her at IKEA. The kid said, "No. Aerospace engineer."

"Woke up at 4:30 when a bull elk bugled close to the house. Love that sound." I didn't know what that sound was when I first heard it on a camping trip. It's unique.
It'll be a day of odds and ends too trifling to report. Enjoy yours.

Two recent woodpecker jokes from The New Yorker cartoon of the day calendar. Who knew I would like woodpecker jokes?

But she's back in school now.

Morning ride--easy on the way out, headwind on return. I've heard a steady headwind on a flat called a 'dutch hillclimb'.

Rain is in the forecast for this afternoon/evening so I have a few errands to get done this morning.
I think I'll stop at Jams, the new Urbana coffee shop. They had their grand opening last Saturday and I decided I'd go spend some money to support them, however at the grand opening everything was free.
I'll try to spend some money there today.

Will they have live music? And what is the derivation of the name Jams, I wonder?

Good morning
Rain coming, good, my truck needs a wash.
Off to do errands and then down to the shop for a little while.

64 degrees outside. The coolest morning in 4 months. The sun is heading south and leaves from my biggest tree ate starting to fall.

Will they have live music? And what is the derivation of the name Jams, I wonder? Bill, all good questions, unfortunately when I stopped there today they weren't open. I talked to the owner for a few minutes, full opening will be next Monday. They were getting ready to paint parking lines in the parking lot today. Not sure were the name Jams came from, but I'll find out. They have inside and outside seating and certainly enough room for live music. Their hours my not be conducive to live music. At least initially it's 7:00 - 4:00 M-F, 9:00-4:00 on Saturday and closed on Sunday. All subject to change.
