Has everyone seen the mild-mannered John Wines on "America's Got Talent?" You need to get past the introduction.
Just goes to show, you never know. Let this be inspiring.
Blazing through Tuesday morning. Have a pleasant day.

I received a package from FedEx yesterday. This is the proof of delivery photo I got via email. Not sure it proves much. Another smoky, sunny, dry, day shaping up. Farmers are nervous as the corn crop curls. We are officially in a severe drought.

Good morning. A friend who can drive is going to pick me up at 9:30 and take me to a coffee bar. I'm not drinking coffee these days but I can sip some herb tea. Frank Lloyd Wright designed this church but he died before it was built. It was built more or less faithfully by people who knew the words but didn't know the music. As the crow flies it's about a quarter mile from my house. This was taken yesterday at sunrise. Enjoy your day. Wordle 731 3/6* π¨β¬β¬π¨β¬ π©β¬π¨π©π© π©π©π©π©π©

Good morning. Yesterday was a very expensive day. My ac died last Saturday, and yesterday I found out that there had been a catastrophic failure in my ac compressor. The system is 17 years old.
A crew will be here late today, or tomorrow morning to replace the entire system.
Music practice will be at Phil's today, he has a working ac!

I hope it goes smoothly & you are cool again soon. Of course, you were always cool, but you know what I mean.

Back to work after vacationing in Rocky Mountain National Park last week.
The first day back is never fun.

Got up at 3 AM today to get the kids off to the airport. Now the cleaning begins. And figure out what got left behind.

Pleasant morning, hot and dry day ahead. NWS says we are in a "moderate drought"
Family and school dynamics being what they are, it has fallen to me to get our eldest granddaughter into a middle school other than the nearby urban neighborhood school. There are lots of choices in this area, but you gotta play your cards right. It's a long story.

Never been a big fan of FLW. He has done some nice work but to me some of his work is over rated. It would make a nice Buddhist temple but as a church it's butt ugly. Yes FLW wanted to change our view about what things should look like, but that ain't it. Those that finished the work for him did him a huge injustice.

Morning!
We got us a scorcher of a day lined up. High might hit 98F! Yikes! Fortunately, I handle heat pretty darn well as long as I stay inside and don't do anything.

Good morning. Is anybody still doing Strings To Africa? I can't remember if it was Evan or Todd doing that awhile back. I cleaned out a drawer and have some I'd like to donate.

What's going wrong in the midwest? Hot and dry everywhere it seems.

Wow that church! Looks like its mother was frightened by a Nicholson #49 rasp. Speaking of mothers this little guy was at our front door this morning. Looked up at me and said βmom?β Shannon I feel for ya man, vacation for me always meant a brutal day or too cleaning up loose ends, and upon return a mile high stack of charts and phone calls to be returned on my desk. That was pre digital records but I would guess the same variation persists.

Morning. Coffee. Then coffee with old farts. Then lunch with old farts. Need to stop by Freddies for half and half so we can have coffee tomorrow. Sense a theme here?
Nita has a card stamping class this eve so Iβm on my own for dinner. Fortunately there is left over bean soup and leftover thai food so I will probably survive. Have a day everyone.

I have some baby fish I could donate. I think the strain originally came from Africa.

So far today I've seen a wildfire and a snake. I could do without both of those. The wildfire started in the Catalina Mountains just north of town around the time that we heard thunder at 3:30 AM. We even got .01" of rain in our neighborhood. The snake we think was a common kingsnake. It didn't have a viper head, but some research tells us that there is a black and white rattlesnake in Arizona.
A few minutes on our Zoom social chat this afternoon before I take Mr. H for his eye injection. I believe this is injection number 132. The good news is that he can still sort of see after 9 years of treatment.
