Our whole family was excited to hear that Arcade1Up is coming out with Ms. PAC-MAN! We will be swapping our PAC-MAN machine out as soon as we can. The cabinet looks great! 🕹
I was in Google Street View today and was surprised to see that it had a picture of our house before it was completely rebuilt. It is fun to see what was here before.
Lucky had her 6-month birthday today! She is 42 lbs now, and is still very much a puppy, but calming down some. She’s a great dog and learning more every day!
I’m getting even more excited about our upcoming RV road trip to Yellowstone National Park! It is going to be a great adventure! We are making stops at:
I’m not very handy, so I get disproportionately excited when I do complete little home projects. New drier vent with guard installed! Last winter the squirrels put over 20 pine cones in the vent!
The southwest dogleg of Cannon Lake is already extremely weedy with a lot of floating algae. The boat lanes look like roads. With July and August still ahead of us, this could be a pretty bad year for algae.
Email from our daughters high school:
“Due to budget cuts, the number of counselors serving Washburn students has shrunk from 5 to 3. Though our enrollment will once again be approximately 1650 students…”
We are in an incredibly anxious time. Many families are destabilized due to the pandemic and record unemployment. Add to that the tough work that we need to do on racism. Reducing counselors by 40% in the midst of that feels short-sighted.
Budgets are what they are, but hopefully these kids are going to find some support in their communities and families too, as many will need it.
We had a great backyard guitar performance tonight. 🎸
New 30-minute PR this morning! 378 kJ (+2 from previous). 39% of the time anaerobic! 🚴🏼♂️ #FitByFifty
This is bad. There are states safely reopening. Others should be following their lead. 😷
