Last day of work for me, which might explain why I can't sleep. Well, I slept from 11 - 2:30. Hopefully I will fall back asleep soon. New job starts July 5, so I will have a three-day break.

A couple new jobs here...!
Hot, since the supposed rainy season was maybe one of the shortest ever. The seasonal front has re-formed up north, so they're getting rain (as is north korea).
Took one bike over to the shop earlier, thinking it'd be easier to have them adjust things, and it turns out one 'brifter' has some issues. They're going to try working on it, fingers crossed that that'll do it and it'll be good for a few more seasons (maybe the erst of my riding life).

I got in an early morning, 12 mile bike ride and now I'm watching a live stream of the National/North American Irish dance competition from Montreal. Granddaughter is competing.
Might get the lawn mowed this afternoon.

Good morning
65F-85F Sunny.
Got a little shop time in yesterday and will try to do so today.
Zaria is packing up her "stuff" and getting ready to move in with her sister today. We'll miss her but there are trade offs. Like not having our fridge full of uneaten take-out food or just plain weird stuff she wanted at the moment and then never ate. Getting that girl to do house chores is like pulling teeth on a live bear.
OMG, it's 1/4 to 9:00 and she's up. Must be excited about moving or Kaiah must have texted her and told her to get moving. They don't have much to move from here, cloths, bed, a buffet that Kaiah wants and the Holy Playstation consul with it's big screen TV.
They will still hang out at our place as they love to make Grandma watch Marvel and other super hero movies with them, we have the cable channels.

Good morning. I took a walk in the mountain preserve from 5:30 to about 7:00. I'll need a nap later.
Yesterday was very busy but today the to-do list is sparse. Enjoy your day.

Picture perfect day. Sunny with a fresh breeze and an expected high of 77F (and no humidity or bugs). So far, this summer has been wonderful.
We had our third City Band Concert in the Park last night. And it was beautiful evening with a good crowd. I got 85% of the fast Sousa runs perfect and stayed in time on the notes I missed. I'm calling that a win! And I sang the National Anthem again. It's looking like I am the City Band go-to anthem guy as no one else will do it. Which is fine by me, I love singing the National Anthem. Next concert up is on the 4th. That is a quick turnaround, so it's going to be a "Best of City Band" concert as we dust off selected pieces from earlier concerts.

I had my MRI last night. I am glad it is over! It was not the claustrophobia that bothered me, but lying still for 30 minutes with my shoulder in pain. The frustrating part was that all I needed to do to completely resolve the pain was move my shoulder. But, of course, I could not do that.
Oh well, it makes me appreciate being out of pain.
We are going to look at a little house in McMinnville, Oregon tomorrow. Hopefully this will be the one.

David, glad that's done. The first time I had one I thought claustrophobia would probably get to me. Luckily it didn't.

It's that time of year again. Tomorrow and Sunday offer plenty for fans of four-wheel racers, too -- two NASCAR races from my beloved Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wis., the British Grand Prix on Sunday morning and an afternoon Indycar race from Mid-Ohio, another cool track. |

I did not know that was a thing in McMinnville. So, yes, that is a great selling point.From www.travelportland.com/events/ufo-festival-mcminnville/
History of the UFO Festival
In June 1947 — a month before the legendary Roswell crash — pilot Kenneth Arnold claimed that he saw a fleet of silvery objects traveling at supersonic speed near Mount Rainier, southeast of Seattle. An article about the sighting in the East Oregonian coined the term “flying saucers” and triggered a surge of UFO reports across the country.
Three years later, Evelyn and Paul Trent of McMinnville snapped what are widely considered to be the first photos of a UFO in the United States. The photos caused a firestorm when they were published in newspapers worldwide — to this day, they are considered some of the most credible UFO photos ever taken.
Founded in 1999, the McMenamins UFO Festival began as a way to honor the famous 1950 Trent sighting and has evolved into an epic celebration of all things extraterrestrial. |

Having a shitty day (I've been dealing with this cell and fraud) and a good time too (Great Dagwoods Virginia ham sandwich). Here's another quote I've seen it three times and I'm not going tell you ....what person's gem.....
If you can sit quietly after difficult news; if in financial downturns you remain perfectly calm; if you can see your neighbors travel to fantastic places without a twinge of jealousy; if you can happily eat whatever is put on your plate; you can fall asleep after a day of running around without a drink or a pill; if you can always find contentment just where you are: you are probably a dog.
And you're a cat .... you can be KING OR QUEEN or BI-male/female or another animal (snail or sloth)

Good evening, friends & acquaintances.
I had a four hours with trying to get my phone worked because somebody did some fraud. It happened for a gas/oil shop - and it's always been a tough place that especially with fraud.
I talked to a several Wink Mobile agents, the manager and more people in a company. They are totally screwed up.
And there were four people and two of the people says you can just leave the renewal with your phone everything is fine.
Then there were two people and it says you're totally screwed up and you're not going to talk to anybody until you get a different VISA. And I would like to talk to people in the holiday just about three people but I can't do it and they can't call me.
I told all these people about my fraud.... My card is has been snipped.... And I don't get money in ATM or a reader in a grocery. I have my check it's on my bank but I can't get it.
There is a long holiday and I like to talk so my friends especially my East Coast people.
I'm gonna have a decent in the weekend but I would like to talk to my friends.
It's going to be a reasonable day of the weekend and I'm not sure gonna be terrific.
I'm off....... shite fucque psst
