just learned that yesterday was the hottest June 21 ever recorded n Munch.. and that todays 91 degrees is probably the hottest it’s ever been on this date.. I dont function weel in heat.. but today was kind of fun..
Interesting day here in Munich.. learned lots of new things.. most of them after hours with a beer in my hand.. My facvofires are these new words for my german vocabulary
schwindlig – dizzy.. like when you’re head is spinning with toop many teekelchen
Scheiter Heiter – light-hearted failure.. as in embracing ones mistakes..
I alsoe learned soem good toaunge twisters:
Braut Kleid bleibt Braut Klied
und BlauKraut bleibt Blaukrout
and
Zehn zahme Ziegen zogen zehn Zentuer Zucker zum Zoo !
Got a great call from my good buddy John for last minute invite to teh Bob Dylan show in SHelburne tonight.. but I’m half a world away.. Happy to know they’ll all be there together…

I woke up this morning and realized that I had only dreamed that I had blogged last night. My apologies.
What meant to blog About was that today was “Juneteenth” June 19 was always a holiday when I grew up. And celebrates the day in 1965 when black slaves in Texas were freed by the Emancipation Proclamation . That started the emancipation all across the confederate south. It was always a big day with parades and stuff. We always had picnics where we ate watermelon which I was that was a little bit strange.
We also sang songs like “we will overcome” and “swing low Sweet chariot” Which doesn’t run as well as it should… Should be “swing low Sweet cheerio and ”
I was remember thinking about juneteenth as like Passover for black people. I’m not sure Juneteenth IS still as big a deal in the south… But I hope it is
