Back on the farm in Summer

I trailered a towable man lift (bucket lift) from Georgia to New York. The thing that made it eventful is that I had to drive my truck. My 2017 Chevy 3500 HD service truck (with only 31k miles) is not my Tesla. I have grown very accustomed to the Tesla self-driving, navigation and general hi-tech luxury. The truck, although I am very fond of my truck, is stressful and expensive to drive compared to the Tesla. Being on the farm alone has been an eye opener. I had forgotten how quiet and in-nature this place is. Very occasionaly a car or plane comes by and disrupts the void, but only occasionally. It has been very reflective. It is the first time I have been up here from Georgia without a specific date I must be back for... or so it seems. "All of humanity’s problems stem from man’s inability to sit quietly in a room alone."-- Blaise Pasacal mid 1600s. I guess I am working on humanity's problems. It can take a lot out of you.

I had a good birthday Tuesday. Yes, I am another year older. I am currently in Nashville TN for a few days for work. And after traveling quite a bit for years I was unfortunate enough to have the Airline lose my luggage. Now I am scrambling to get what I need. I now own a new Golf shirt, Golf belt, Golf socks and Golf underwear. I am now even thinking about taking up golf. The cashier at a restaurant asked me a question about golf since I am obviously very knowledgeable about golf based on the money I drop on Golf clothes. I was happy with myself that I didn't freak out at the airline. They can't help it. They gave me a very informative pamphlet about lost luggage and educated me that I was carrying around a type 22D piece of baggage. There was a brief point where they started to point out where *I* made a mistake that lost my luggage, but I pointed out that I did everything in my control. Not that it could possibly be their fault, it did neutralize the discussion.

Now here is an Easter egg. It is "eggzilla." It is over 3 inches long by 2 inches. One of the chicks must have had to really work to get this one out. It is a whole omelet in one chicken egg.
