Kids being cute.
Let’s see. I swam this morning for the first time in twelve days. The last time was Thursday, July 14th. I had to travel for business, last week, I was sick over the weekend, and I was still sick on Monday. I’m sure I have an excuse for the preceding [...]

It was 104F/40C on Friday & Saturday. A big branch fell off the neighbor’s Asian elms. That was really scary. What if the kids had been out there? The arborist came and took away the branch and trimmed the trees back. He said that when it’s really hot, the [...]
