Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be. It is just passing 2:00 a.m. in "This City."
I did it, I finished another novel, the same one in which the author had previously thrown me a curve. He did it again, adding one more layer of nuance that I thought I had picked up on, but which was just a little tweak that satisfied me as a reader, and also tugged at my heartstrings too. I doubt that you can get any better than that.
The weather yesterday was outstanding. Sunny warm temperatures and gentle breezes. STWD was truly happy. The temperature made it into the mid 60° range under sunny skies, and that will be the case through tomorrow. Add in a little more cloud cover, and that will be the case through Saturday too. Therefore, we'll be off to Pensacola to run some errands and just enjoy the balance of our time here in the panhandle.
Mary had her chat session yesterday, I walked with the intrepid one, and then read the newspapers and worked some crosswords. In other words, doing what I like to do, enjoy retirement. Mary took that walk herself, but came away unrequited. She say s she'll wait until we get home to satisfy her desires. She also spent time knitting. It is good to see her having time to do the things that she has been trying to fit in for seemingly years. She may even get her stash whittled down a bit at home.
I got a nice email from Ellen regarding my recent musings on family history. It is always good to hear from her. Good too, to hear that she shares some of my ideas and is working on her own family history.
Did I mention that spring is nearly here? Pitchers and catchers report tomorrow for many teams and then trickle in over the next few days. In addition, the balance of the position players are due in early next week. Yes, I am born again, there really is baseball on the horizon. As we all know, "Baseball is Life!" I even got to see baseball news on the TV yesterday afternoon.
Does anyone know how NCIS New Orleans ended? Our cable provider hit a snag about 10 minutes before the end and the picture froze in place, so I don't know.
In addition, the latest edition of the Daytona 500 brings Speedweek to a close on Sunday afternoon. While I am not a huge fan of what an old colleague used to call taxi cab racing, it is the start of motor car racing here in the U.S. Adam would agree that it is taxi cab racing, since anything that has enclosed wheels is a taxi cab to him. That is of course unless it is a Jeep™
The sun will rise at today 6:29 a.m. and set at 5:39 p.m. Ciao.
