Good morning GH. It is just past 4:00 AM here in "The City" and our current temperature is 52 degrees under what will be sunny skies and 71 once we get past the current darkness. No real precipitation is expected until Sunday and that's only 20%. Tuesday was a beautiful day for walking and just being in our fair city.

In the AM, Mary and I walked with Sugar and then it was time for Mary to get to work. Later, Sugar and I got to chair after our long afternoon walk. I did some reading and a crossword from the local newspaper and that's about it. Oh, in the AM I also changed the way our cable television/internet service is billed and provided. In the afternoon, I also played my whistle some and I am occasionally getting better. Next thing I knew, Mary said it was time for a third walk, this time sans Sugar. We had a few brews, a bean burrito and then home for the season premier of NCIS, which is about the only show I watch these days. We did start watching a movie later, but only Mary finished it. I got tired and went off to bed.

I did put off the mowing of the lawns on the palatial estate and that's because there is one thing certain about grass, it will always be there tomorrow. I was in the man-cave for a while, where I got my new clock hung and pulled out some old telephone wiring that was in the way and long unused. Since everything is still working in the house, I didn't pull out anything that was vital.

Today more music, possibly lawn mowing, and certainly more walking with Sugar. In other words, a pretty typical day. That's the way I like them. Other things may crop up, but it it likely that there will be no emergencies.

In sports, the boys in blue fell hard to the Pirates, 2 - 8. At least my prediction for them to not lose 100 games is going to come true. The Tigers triumphed over the Twins, 4 - 2. That gave them a berth in the post-season for the third straight year. My beloved Red Sox won't be getting their 100th win this season. The Rockies defeated them 3 - 8. But they are still the AL East champions.

Looks like that's about it. If any emergencies arise, I hope to be here to report them. Ciao.
