Happy Father's Day to all Dads of ours, Dads with children and Dads with pets.

DD and SIL arrived safely yesterday and pickup was smooth except for the rain which continued until mid-afternoon yesterday. Apparently a lot of restaurants had to close because they only have outside seating. That is how rare rain is here.

We left our old room around 10 yesterday morning so the maid could get it ready for DD and SIL. We didn't get into the room I rented for our last 2 nights until mid-afternoon. It is probably the room farthest from my usual one and farthest from the water. I would never buy a timeshare room in this unit! But it is only for 1 more night.

We went to dinner at our favorite restaurant last night. Everyone loved their steak. Best meal in the 2 weeks we have been here.

Since today is Sunday we will go get breakfast after our morning walk. We head to the piers in the high-rise part of town with the "kids" in late afternoon to take them to a sunset cruise. We will hang around town while they are gone, then we are going for the 3rd time to one of our other favorite restaurants here. Last night in Aruba!

Have a scintillating Sunday!

Sounds like you are awfully busy for a retired person this week!

Wow! Hot! When do you leave for the lake?

Right?! He crossed a boundary. But I still felt bad. Glad he can live to go eat bugs elsewhere.

And the lack of a vent in the kitchen is the single most maddening thing about their building choices. Has made me curse them at least once a week! When I mentioned that they said they didn't want to block the view, the contractor said that's no excuse as these flat whole room vents were an option when they built. Weirdos!

Greetings all

Gutten tag. That is all I know. It's lovely and sunny here today. Good thing because the Oyster Festival is today. I used to go and it is quite the party. Lots of beer and restaurant booths competing for oyster awards. But it means I will have to use an alternate route to the studio in a bit as the main drags in Arcata will be full and messy. First world problems.

Peps we love all your posts. How cool to see all those places. Gelato rules. Get more. Glad you have a good puppy sitter.

Well Ann I say get yourself a great cruising car and enjoy. Got a plan?

Liz rain in paradise? No fun. Enjoy the last couple of days.

DD we are absorbing your retired energy. Have fun with family.

Paula hope DC1's date goes well.

Not much else. Gotta get up and moving as I have a ton to do at the studio. I discovered I have gallery duty tomorrow also - don't know how that happened- and I have to cover the whole day as my co worker is still not well. Hate being there for 7 hours but it will not kill me. Interesting people always wander in.

Chinese take out last night. Tonight is the great unknown of whatever lurks in the freezer.
