I thought I was taking 101 to 10 but gps took me west on 134 instead. It was crowded too, but anything to get off what is likely the busiest highway around. Pretty sure it was the northern route to get here because I went south to San Dimas

You did. US101 ends and dumps you briefly onto CA 134. That continues east and then ends and merges into I210 in Pasadena. You took that to the CA 57 junction, then headed south to Bonelli. I haven't driven in that part of the LA basin for many years, and we were splitting lanes because even the high occupancy lanes were jammed. I can't imagine what it must be like now, even on a weekday in the low season. Get ready for more; I'm guessing you'll be routed down south a bit to I10, and then to parts east. The good news is you're about 2/3 of the way from when you left the ocean at Ventura to where you'll hit the desert at Redlands or there abouts.

Take it easy and you'll do just fine...

I didn't see any oil drips under that Norton?

It's on a piece of 3/4" plywood, and hasn't had oil in it for a couple decades. Yet it still drips a drop a couple times a year.

Drinking second cup of coffee. 63° with partly cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 71° with cloudy skies. Was up early to take son to airport for a flight to Seattle. Rest of the family lives in central Washington state. Had a good visit with Dennis and wife. Son left his dog with me until next week when he returns from Seattle. Will be fun playing with it throwing ball and frisbee.

Everyone stay safe and well.

Good Morning All.

Ron, glad good airport trip. I was stuck in construction traffic going to Ron’s. 30 yrs ago I did a project out near him, was nice country drive, now it’s all built up. Things sure looked different.
Thanks for showing me the back way out.
Our friends wife now works for GM, had worked for Chrysler. He now works for Samsung, was with Chrysler.

It isn't leaking, it is marking its' territory.

Good morning, the low is 57 and going to a high of 64°F. Wind E 14 gusting to 20 mph. Cloudy with 40% chance of showers tonight.

I've got a quack appointment today to see if he will sign off on me getting my license back.
That liar told me when he wrote the last scripts that they were free due to my age. Sure they were 'free' AFTER I paid out $106.oo. The more I deal with this idiot, the more I dislike him.
Since I got checked into the hospital in May, I have shelled out $234.oo in dope. And not even the good stuff;

It is too windy to bike into town today, so I've got a ride coming at 11:10 for the 1.5 mile ride to the quack and then the dope store for more bp dope.

I guess I wont be getting after the lights until Saturday/Sunday.

Have a safe day all

65 and rain. Going to 78, maybe no rain for a short spell.

Wag, I've learned a new word..."chuffed." Nice.

Ron and BEF, great you got a visit...BEF, seems you are on the road a lot and never get tired. Remind me, why are you not looking in Augusta, Rockingham or Page counties?

Scotty, hot chocolate sounds like the perfect way to go. I used to always take a thermos of it when I'd take my young son out in the boat in the winter to go to our duck hunting blind. I drank most it myself! He wasn't much of a fan of anything but soft drinks back then. A couple of times I cooked bacon and eggs for him in the blind on my camp stove...had to keep the food in a cooler until cooking time or else it would freeze hard.

 

[Buppies]

Those were the days wngsprd
67 high in 70s .23 in of rain last night. Ram will not start off to shop this morning via tow truck.

Good morning! 72˚F heading to the upper 80s, not quite fall weather like was forecast that will come tomorrow when it will be 60s in the morning. We did have a brief shower yesterday evening .06" just enough to make the grass smile.

I called out the company that installed the landscape lighting 15 years ago and found out how to turn on the lights outside. I am missing a control box (which is not made anymore) which one of the owners before me must have lost during their move. Last night I counted 12 working lights in the back yard and 20 in the front. About half of the lights are not working, some of the bulbs are burned out some wires have been cut. No digging with the shoulder yet so the project is on hold.

I need a timer (any suggestions) to turn on and off the lights for about two hours during the early evening/night because it lights up the steps on the front walkway.

Our neighborhood consist of 90 micro neighborhoods. The micro neighborhoods consist of several streets around your house. Our micro neighborhood is having a Wurst Fest this weekend and my wife is practicing her vegan German chocolate Texas sheet cake recipe. She got the Test cake perfect. We are also going to make/take some homemade vegan sausages.

PT this morning ready to feel the pain and grab the gain. They have me do about 6-8 different exercises three sets of twelve, at the end of the hour I am so ready to go home. My reach is improving.

Safe travels Drew!
