Hi,
There were forecasts for thunderstorms. We waited but only got cloudy sunshine. Today we visited downtown and
got a visit from our little swim friends.
There were a few who knew the 'Easy Monday' song. A seven word title from the early 80s by a progressive trio.
"Do I have to tell the story of a thousand rainy days since we first met? It's a big enough umbrella, but it's always me that ends up getting wet. __ __ __ __ __ __ __, everything she do just turns me on. Even though my life before was tragic, now I know my love for her goes on...." Clue: No more hints. If you don't get this you will be arrested. (Hmm, who does that?)
Last night I set up the new router and things have been fast and steady for almost 24 hours. We're getting the proper speed and that means that things like Skype and Youtube work correctly. It also means that on those rare occasions when someone sends me email, it gets here.
This morning we went into town to send posters and invitations for Lisa's Bangkok exhibit to the gallery. We used the small coffee shop post office counter in the Edison department store. Walking through the store we couldn't help but check out the many counter clerks putting on makeup while at their posts. The young women who work in cosmetics have the best deal going. They can play with the samples all day, and they do.
As we passed by the watch shop we stopped to say 'Hello' to 'Watch Guy'. We hadn't seen him in a long time and he looked up and gave us a big grin and a very happy greeting. He was busy so we didn't get a chance to ask him about recent tennis matches. He's a big fan and we always compare notes on who is good.
Since the forecast called for rain we changed our plan to get the car washed. On the way home we spotted a broom and brush man with an variation on the usual push-cart. He had the back half of a bicycle connected to a trailer cart attached in the front. He steered by turning the cart. I pulled over to catch this photo of him walking his rig across the street.
Broom and Brush Man
Just as we were preparing for dinner the kids who come to swim showed up. The two girls rode their bikes over to visit with Boot. Each one had a small child on the back so we had four kids enjoying the front lawn. They probably would have stayed longer but I mentioned to Boot that they should head home before it got dark. Once again, safety seemed to be the farthest thing on their agenda. Hmm.
Have a Happy Tuesday.
Peace,
Danny
