at my old high school during home games. My job? Keep people off of the press box that don't belong there and
watch for rowdy fans. It's the best seat in the house.

Finally back home and TRYING to get settled back in after two great back to back getaways- both of which were desperately needed, now it's back to the task of continuing to deal with some ongoing reality, however, I do need to send out a few thank yous to some folks who stepped in and made this past month pretty special for me. You know who you are, and can expect a PM from me in the coming days.

Molly: Congratulations to you and Larry. 45 years. Wow!
That's longer than I've been alive.

Linda: If it were me, I'd pass on seeing Mr. Crosby. Not just because of his turning his concerts into political rallies, but he's become a not-so-nice person, I.M.O.
In addition to snubbing the surviving members of his original band (The Byrds), he openly snubbed Stephen Stills at the end of the CSN show in Paris 3 years ago when, at the end of the show, shook Graham Nash's hand, and when Mr. Stills extended his hand to him, he gave him a dirty look, turned away and walked off the stage. That didn't set well with me.
But yes, some of his music is still really nice- I just wish he'd grow up a bit.

Was supposed to head out on the water this afternoon. But as we were pulling away from the dock I accidentally let the stern line fall into the water behind the boat and it got all tangled around the propellor which then promptly seized up. Fortunately we were still inside the harbor and drifted back toward the dock where several fellow boaters extended helping hands to pull us in. (Every boater we have met has been incredibly kind and generous with us newbies.) Anyhoo, we raised the motor to trailer height and cut the line free. The propeller and drive appear to be undamaged and we were able to change gears and such. But after all that we lost our mojo. So now we're going to meet my sister and her husband for drinks and dinner and we'll head back out tomorrow. I am a bad first mate.

After a bad trip, I came up with a saying about boating. "If I don't get rained on and nothing broke down, I had a good day."
Congratulations, Molly!
