Broken Stuff

Image
It seems like the last couple weeks is about broken stuff. Angie was rear ended on her way to work. The car is broken. The refrigerator also decided to croak. Trying to catch up, gain back lost ground. We have a new car, very similar to the rudely smashed up car. I had it shipped from Texas. Also have a new a new fridge and backup freezer and fridge. Spring is very sprung. The pollen seems worse that usual this year. In Atlanta we complain about the traffic and the pollen, neither one is really as bad as we say.

A pic of the plane I have been flying lately around Atlanta. It is tired, but it flies pretty well.

I am in Duluth GA, back from San Antonio TX. I had a global meeting this past week. It had been almost 30 years since I was in San Antonio. They are having a massive drought in Texas. When I arrived at the hotel I gave the cab driver a tip I told him, "better yet, I brought rain." And rain it did on my last day in Texas, and it rained hard. A person setting up breakfast tables next to me before sun-up, dropped everything, ran to the windows and said. "Oh my god its raining." People were coming out of the backrooms with smiles and tidbits about radar images and quantities of rain. What a difference from Upstate NY. I spent time in a river walk piano bar, that was a special treat. They played the following song, which was nice and fits my life in a Texas context.
