Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be. It is just past 3:00 a.m. in "The City." Things are quiet this morning. Outside the WW, nothing is happening. A stray automobile, went by, but that was a while ago. No trains, no rain, no thunder, no pedestrians, nothing. What's not to like?

Yesterday, we didn't do much. We went to the local garden center, the City Farmer™, and to the grocery store. STWD quietly went on the morning walk, until she found herself at the groomer. We returned for her after lunch. She is now softer and less of a hair ball. While she was out, I vacuumed the house and washed her couch cover to make the house more like her, less hair covered.

Prior to that, I mowed the lawn on the PE. That took a bit of effort after the rains of Monday.

Not much else was happening and that's a good thing. Today, I plan to do very little other than play with the girls. Mary's latest project hadn't come in as of bedtime, so I am free for at least one more day.

I'd like to get to the driving range soon and try to hit a bucket of range golf balls to see how my yak reacts. But, I have to avoid walking or working around the PE too much for a few days, to allow my yak a chance to rest.

A walk with STWD, a few meals, and that should be a complete day, just the way I like it.

No trains were spotted.

The boys in blue are now nine games over .500 after their 1 - 0 win over the Dodgers Monday night. The Tigers once again beat the Indians, this time by a score of 7 - 3. Unfortunately, my beloved Red Sox weren't so lucky, losing to the Orioles, 4 - 6. The Caps were off due to their league All Star game.

The sun will rise at 6:06 a.m. and set at 9:28 p.m. In between, a partly cloudy day is the expectation. Thursday the rains may return, based on the forecast from the National Weather Service, not the more reliable STWD forecast.

Ciao.
