How ya all doing today? Been chasing around my daughter's all-star softball team for a couple weeks. Today they play for sectional flag.... It's weird being a parent and probably more nervous for them then they are....

Today's my Thursday, woot woot!!

today is going to be a lot of driving and not a lot of clients. First up, is an hour drive out into the San Joaquin Delta just to reach the pick up point. It should be spectacular out there at dawn. I end the day in traffic hell on I680 at the beginning of Rush hour

Coffee and grub mmmmn

I need to make a "Guess Who " game for NBA Summer league today, and figure out if I am going to go watch my son throw discus this weekend at the Junior Olympics Regional Championships. If he places well there, then it is off to Sacramento for Nationals. Proud of the kid for working hard at throwing the metal frisbee and the heavy round ball.

Last day on crutches, if everything looks good when I see the surgeon tomorrow morning. Both excited and a little nervous. 3 months on them has obviously sucked ass, but my knee still feels a long way from 100% and I'm a bit anxious about how things are going to go once I start putting weight on it.

The last time my knee was scoped I paid extra for the "sports medicine" pt and it was a huge difference in my recovery.

Hope for the best @HAB

Last full day in Cannon Beach. I can't see how people live here full time. There just isn't enough shit to do unless one sits around crocheting or drinking all day. Oh, I may have figured it out

Morning!

Waterton Lakes NP for our last full day in Canada. Wife and I were eating dinner last night when, in the span of 2 minutes, a cold wind picked up, clouds blew in, and the temp dropped a good 20 degrees. This cool cloud appearance ro have stuck around for the day.

It's amazing how much shit some people take "camping". I'm staring at a 30' 5th wheel towing a 12' cargo trailer. Dafuq these people bringing?!

Wife and I play a similar game to that when we're roadtripping, trying to work out how towns survive.

Her favourite is Dotsero heading to the Western Slope, no idea what the residents of there do to survive.

Here there is plenty of tourist money that explains how they survive. (For many of the tiny towns dotting the countryside I bet it's 80% SSDI, 20% meth trafficking.) It's just what they do to not go insane.

This is where I am at with the "storage" portion of the build. I would like to have enough space to put shit, but how much shit needs putting? I don't want to stack the space floor to ceiling with cabinets that are empty.

We did Cottonwood in Salida. Was fun. Check out their Whole Foods store in town if you get a chance. It’s pretty rad.. But then again I’m easily impressed.

Is it different from other Whole Foods?

Rode a big loop today with Little Rainbow, Columbine, Rainbow Trail and Double Rainbow.

I have no idea where I am
So, did anyone else come home at 3:30 a.m. to find one of their trees had dropped several branches, blocking the road making it impassible for neighbors to get to work and had to do gnome work til 4:30 so no angry neighbors pounded on the door at a way too early hour ?

Anyone ?
