Lots of maintenance needed in Arizona! Good thing it is so beautiful there. Hopefully the deck box is easy to put together.

Greetings all

Continued sun here. There are beach warnings but no wind. I guess the sneaker waves are really bad and dangerous. A few days ago a local man was fishing and got washed away. He had a wife and a couple of little kids. Not safe. Good thing I have no urge to go fishing.

So today is our 31 wedding anniversary.. Time flies. Not doing anything special except going to our favorite restaurant with the ocean view which has good small plates. Plus we will stop by the gallery so I can take some new stuff. A trip to the gym in a bit and thats about all. I made grilled roast beef sandwiches last night with smoked cheddar and that was good.

Hmm Liz that dog is giving Justice the stink eye. Hope you don't meet up with it on walks. But it looks like a great spot - enjoy. Somewhere 5000 miles away DD has her toes in the same ocean!

CC you are industrious. Good on you for getting those repairs done. And FYI husbands don't always do the guy maintenance chores. My DH is great with electronics but other stuff ????. Along with a nicer larger home comes more devices and items to break and things to clean I guess. And a water spout from the Toto???!!! What a mess. Glad you had a fun lunch and got to hear about Antarctica. One of my scrabble friends went there last year and was really impressed. I would go if it wasn't so hard to get there.

Rats on the golf cart chronicles Paula. What a crappy dealer. Is there such a thing as the Better Business Bureau any more? I guess these days it is a bad Yelp review.

Not much else. I really need to find some new things to do before I am totally fossilized. Art is rather uninspired these days and I need to come up with new stuff. Good time to experiment as sales are slow at the gallery and I don't have to worry about production.

Funny article from the local paper today:

We would describe that as a slow news day! Lol! I remember my grandma's very small town newspaper describing the social happenings of the town, who had family over for a visit, who hosted coffee at their house, who attended the church bazaar, what Mary Ann made for dinner! Lol kind of sounds like our conversations on here some days! All about each other's lives!
