Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be, across the nation, and across the world. It is just after 4:30 a.m. in "The City."

The current temperature is 64° under fair skies. My DTWS shows 65.3º on the front porch and 65.5ºon the deck. According to the NWS, light winds of 1 mph make it feel like 64°. Today's high temperature is forecast to be 82º under partly-cloudy skies with a relative humidity index of 73% and a 20% chance for additional precipitation.

According to my DTWS, the barometric pressure is 29.24" and steady, while the NWS is reporting 29.79", also steady. Generally, those readings indicate fair weather.

The sun will rise this morning @ 6:08 a.m. and it will set later @ 9:28 p.m.

Sadly, in GH and thus in our non-air conditioned manse, the outdoor temperature on Monday is forecast to be 86º, and on Tuesday and Wednesday, 88º. Therein lies a tale.

We finally got that visit from the A/C inspection service that had been contracted by our insurance company to do inspections of concerns at the homes of their policyholders. Sadly, it took several days for that service to make an appearance. When they finally came, with no announcement of their arrival, they did not drive a marked van, they did not provide any identification, they did not provide their names, they had no uniforms, and they were very, and I stress very, unprofessional and downright rude!

They wore facemasks only when they were strongly urged by us to do so. In short, we have no faith that the inspection that they performed met any minimum standard. At this point, we are in a quandary. When you contract with an insurance company it is with the expectation that they can help with unexpected expenses. We need to have our A/C system replaced due to the physical damage, but the recommendation by the inspection service did not provide us with any hope that the insurance company will assist us.

But enough on that sad experience.

We did some reading, some crossword solving, and some relaxing once the "inspectors" had left the area. Later, we drove over to the big-box nearly everything store and picked up an order. That was the best part of the day.

After dinner, we watched another episode of Poldark and then I moved upstairs to watch the Beatles in their first film, A Hard Day's Night. I stumbled upon the listing for that movie on one of the movie channels and it ran for almost two hours and featured many of the songs from the Fab Four's early days. I loved it. Here is a sample of their work, the song A Hard Day's Night courtesy of YouTube™, as performed by the Beatles.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yjyj8qnqkYI

But, the movie had so many great songs and scenes that it is hard to pinpoint just one, so here is another song, the Fab Four performing She Loves You. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S302kF8MJ-I

Oh what the hey, here is Paul performing And I Love Her https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_c2XZd9mMo

Oh my, what's one more, or three?

What can I say, I love music.

Today, we hope to stay relaxed and in limited motion. The fur-children are hopeful of more walking, but that is a maybe. Last night, another pyromaniac set off a huge explosion nearby and that sent STWD into paroxysms of fright and into her hidey-hole. Ginger was merely curious. I had to go down and get Sugar to go out for her final visit, much earlier than expected. Ciao.
