Not this weekend but next. Heading to the air show. The boys are super excited. There's an A10 warthog flyby. Do you think they'll shoot off the Gatling gun?

How much paperwork would be involved with discharging a weapon outside of a military target range? I'd put my money on airshow planes only being equipped with dummy weapons.

I toured the Geneseo museum shortly after it opened. If I'm ever in the area again, I will certainly stop for another visit.....

Elsa was pretty much a non-event here. Lots of rain, some minor flooding, back to sunshine now.

I missed this last week but we took that route up. We went to Dawsonville and hit Suches and Wolf Pen gap. It was fun but lots of rain.

I did something I haven't done in literally decades, I went to the Valley Drive-In Theatre. It's one of three drive-ins still operating in the province. It's been operating since around 1952 and is run by the local chapter of the Lions Club. All proceeds from the canteen are used for Lions Club projects around the community. It's about an hour and 20 minutes away so I had a nice little drive as well. The weather couldn't have been any better either. It stayed between 24c and 22.5c right to the end of the second movie (Fast and Furious F9) at about 2:10am. All in all it was a fantastic way to spend a Saturday evening. I'm sure I'll be going again in the near future.

Well I did mention one of them, Fast and Furious F9 ( which is the one I wanted to see) and the other one was The Boss Baby (which I had zero interest in but it turned out to be entertaining picking out all the hidden adult references that so many children's movies have).

I saw that but wasn't sure what it meant. Yeah, I guess my reading comprehension sucks!

In fairness, F9 was a vague reference. If you're not a fan it would be easy to disregard.

I like to spend time playing on the computer, as this is the only way to take a break from work. Recently, I started visiting the playground https://casinocanada.com/games/craps/ where you can have a good time and play different games, so I take off my stress and go to work with new strength.

Sealed all the gaps in the garage in an effort to keep the bugs outs, and keep them from dropping crap on the car. 5 cans of spray foam, 2 shirts of sweat, 3 beers :-) 2 bourbons

Visiting some in-laws this upcoming weekend, in Temecula of all places. Should be about 18 Gazillion degrees. Up slightly from the 78 I'm used to on the coast. Apparently there is some Folklorico dancing going on nearby.


Wagers on how much tequila will be involved?

I'll be taking my passenger side door apart to try to find why the door lock is making terrible noises whilst locking and unlocking.

Finally taking out a non-permitted wall in my garage that the previous owners installed to create a POS "mud room". Now my car can actually fit in the garage...once I pour new concrete (dumbass that originally did it had it slope inward & it floods) and get electrical run to have a motor for the door.

Woo hoo! Baby steps...
