The Coffee House

[smoke665]

@Jeff15 Nope, but I don't mind. Father in law is 96 and Mother in law is 90, they're both in a nursing home, and at this stage not going back home. They finally told us to sell the house, and already have a contract for sale, will close this month.

Willie and Gary installed all the 220V and the 110V yesterday. Gary finished gluing up the last two pipe pipe fittings today and has started filling up the trenches. Whew ... like smoke665, the hard work is over.

Gary is jumping into the shower and then Mary Lou and he are heading out for Romona. Romona is pretty famous out here. It takes place in the late 1800 in SoCal. While it is a romance story, the main plot was to illuminate the horrible and sub-human treatment of Native Americans. Much of the play is based upon actual events. The play will be performed outside at the Mission San Gabriel, incorporating the mission, founded in 1771, into the play. Adios.

Saw some of the posts recently about Columbo tv show. Am watching now on MeTV, Sunday 8 pm.
Tonight is William Shatner as bad guy and do remember it, but will watch some of it.
I do enjoy it.
I seem to remember 1 with Richard Boone as a blind killer. I can NEVER find that episode? Do they not allow reruns of certain contracts ?

Been lurking but not posting much....

Hey Nancy! Hope you’re well. Are you up here or somewhere else? Did you see on the news about the fatal shark attack in Truro?

I’m thinking of a weekend photo trip later this month to the cape. Any suggestions for photo spots? Looking mostly for beaches/dunes and lighthouses. Haven’t been to the cape in years...

Finally got the little rascal (with my camera). After 15 minutes of playing gimme my gloves back, I won his friendship.

Thanks. I wish I had time to use the 42" VAR you suggested I get.

Dave ain't sure but wasn't Anthony Bourdain with a rather hard band.
The name escapes me just now.

Perhaps David is thinking of Dave Mustaine ( sp ) ?

5.15 hours today and for the week so far.
Jodi asked me if I could fix this.
I'll give it a try but I think the movement has failed.

Romona turned out to be a dance interpretation of the play. Each scene was danced out in different locations. As a group, the audience was escorted all over the Mission San Gabriel compound. The first scene was danced in a plaza with this huge concrete fountain. A pair of goats added some color to the dance. Then inside the playhouse and the dancers performed upstairs on a second floor walkway above the lobby. Then outside again, once again ushered back inside the playhouse, (we sat in the back while the dancers performed in the front seats), outside then finally back in the playhouse where we, the audience, sat on stage while the dancers, danced in the seats. Mary Lou found it very different and fascinating.

Gary’s two Anthony Bourdain books arrived, Les Halles and Appetites a Cookbook. A cursory look has Bourdain speaking to you, in his own wise-cracking style, on every page and overflowing with savory recipes.

And I have two of the bleariest eyes that there could be. I feel better than I have any right to after yesterday.

Morning all. Looks like I'll be getting a lot more time for photography. Our plan was to load up today, and head for the mountains for a few days, to be with a group of friends, instead we'll be in isolation mode for ????. Found out yesterday that the new treatments have caused DW's white count to plummet into the danger zone, putting her at high risk for infections. The good news is she is tolerating the treatments without a lot of other side effects. For now it's a wait and see as they adjust the protocol. Just another step in the journey for us.

Sorry for the blood count. There are a lot of good movies out on Amazon and Netflix.
