Sorry gang, but I have a couple of things to do and then I have to hit the bed. Tomorrow is a workday and 4:30 comes early. But, I promise I'll be back in the morning. I hope to see most, if not all, of you then. Sweet dreams. Be safe.

Good evening, sjb....hope you had nice, relaxing weekend. Is it hot yet? We've been in the low 50s all weekend, with only some sun, but the days get longer each 24 hours.

Next sunrise: 5:16 a.m.
Next sunset: 10:37 p.m.

My dad, who became an english professor, wrote a book about him, and finished it before he died. My brother, who among other things is a writer. He is currently editing the manuscript.

How’s the weather down in the fair isles?

We had a beautiful day if a little on the chilly side.
