We had to do arrival today. Our wonderful neighbor Bob found a rock that he knew that Diane would like in his backyard… Not just any rock… 1000 pound boulder dropped by the last Glacier that came through.… At 10:30 today He and his stepson Dan chain that rock to Bob’s tractor and they lifted it out of the ground and drove it over here to place in our front garden.

It looks so good there…

Diane looks pretty good there too!

Very peaceful day around here today. Much needed. I woke up last night around three not able to sleep because of thinking about work.

Spent a fair amount of today outside because it was so beautiful. Diane Citori and I took a walk to the lower gorge. That’s getting to be too far for China wok now… She’s definitely slowing down at 16 1/2… Still enjoys her walks though

The Huntington river looked inviting in the near 50° weather made it irresistible. Diane took this picture… Luckily the rest of me is underwater. Note the snow over my left shoulder… It was definitely “brisk”

Later tonight we had a video dinner with some friends.… It was actually very fun. We talked for about three hours. Laughed a lot. They felt good



time for bed

More tomorrow

This lock down has a few pleasures… But we try to make the best of the ones we have. One thing we’ve gotten in the habit of doing is watching movies often and eating ice cream all together. It’s something to look forward to. Tonight we watched Ghostbusters… I forgot how great it was.

Nice to laugh for a couple of minutes

I had an interesting milestone today.. I hit 10,000 connections in Linkedin.. It doesn’t mean anything.. but it time like this when one day blends into the next .. its’ nice to have something like that as ‘punctuation’ .. 

interestingly, my 10,000th connection was a young new hire I met in a roundtable yesterday. 

Thanks for that Kyle !
