Good Morning All. Mostly cloudy and 68°, warming back into the 90's today for a few days before the next wind shift on Tuesday.
Yesterday's grocery trek went as planned, mostly. After making a big deal out of it, I left the pool water at home.
I did pick up another load of chlorine and noted that the cost is now more than twice what it was in 2020.
The industry has not recovered from the massive plant fire/destruction in August 2020 of the biggest plant in the country, due to damage from a hurricane back then. That despite rebuilding and being back on line since 2023.
On another note, the see-saw gas prices have again dipped below $4/gal, with $3.89 being the average about town. There was evidence everywhere that it rained a bit while we were gone to town...put a damper on outdoor chores in the early afternoon. Eventually it dried enough for me to hit the garden for more Green Bean picking and tucking more Tomato branches into their cages. Today I must return to mowing.
I once again just had a very short visit to the train shed yesterday. It's just been that kind of week. I'm looking forward to resuming the latest project. All that I did in that respect was to mix up another batch of glue/water mixture for scenery work. I did do some general cleanup in the room, so all was not lost.
David (Marlin) - Does the concierge doctor also get Medicare payments as well? My wife and I have discussed using that type of service, but the discussions haven't gotten too serious yet.
Mike - Cigarette lighters and ashtrays in cars are two items that I don't miss. I do miss those little crank-out vent windows and bench seats though.
My pool temperature is already 80°, now to just get the water cleaned after the pool cover mishap.
Everyone have a fabulous Friday.
