Good 42º clear sunny morning.
Yesterday stayed breezy and cool, and by 1pm we were only at 73º. Then by late afternoon we were in the high 70ºs.
The clouds were beautiful too.......
I saw a demo on FB of an aerosol fire extinguisher. It was expensive, so I checked out Amazon for one. I read all the comments and bought two for $24.
Here is the web page and the info. Scroll to the bottom of the page. I will keep one in the kitchen and one in my car.

In my day:
"grass" was mowed,
"coke" was a cold drink,
"pot" was something your mother cooked in and
"rock music" was your grandmother's lullaby.

"Aids" were helpers in the Principal's office,
"chip" meant a piece of wood,
"hardware" was found in a hardware store and
"software" wasn't even a word.

Picture of the Day
Baikal is the world's deepest lake. Also known as the "blue eye of Siberia", Lake Baikal is located in Southern Siberia, between Irkutsk Oblast to the northwest and the Buryat Republic to the southeast. Famous for being the deepest lake in the world with a maximum depth of 5,369 feet, it holds a volume of water larger than that of all the great lakes combined. It is considered among the world's clearest lakes and is considered the world's oldest lake.. Geologists estimate that Lake Baikal formed somewhere 20-25 million years ago, during the Mesozoic.
