Broken Stuff

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.

Still trying to be in three or more places at the same time. I took a picture of my three key rings (collections). Left to right--- California, Georgia, New York. I am sure there are some from NY that are not needed anymore. But still... A picture of Angie's plane on final for Orange County airport on her way back. A picture of Angie with the Gwinnett mall (walking distance from the house in Duluth) where The Netflix show "Stranger Things" created and filmed "Stargate Mall" in Season 3. A real chopper (#Derelict #Shovelhead) we saw at breakfast today in Orange County, CA.

West to East and back. A busy trip for sure.

Last weekend I had a quick adventure. I flew to Tampa picked up a moving truck, got it loaded up at my Brother's and drove to Atlanta and unloaded. Then flew back to SoCal. I did manage to lose the keys to the rental truck. I decided that wasn't much fun, but I am sure I learned a valuable lesson, just not sure what it was. I also managed to take down a phone line across my driveway with the truck. Opps. We had dinner with my cousins in Huntington beach while they were out this way last week. It was a great dinner in a great place (Dukes on Huntington Beach), so much to talk about. It turns out my half-niece Marina is headed to Antarctica right now. I am very pleased she got into the program. It will be fun to watch her blog. https://www.the-strudel-is-real.com/

I have pretty much finished the "sq foot expander" in the apartment. It is a nice office area and a nice comfy bed above. I took a pic of some guy's truck who sells garbage. Maybe he just picks it up. God bless him nevertheless. Gracie poses for a picture.

I have been watching some of this stuff lately. I admit it. More brute violence than the finesse of rock climbing, but what ever works (or breaks). Better entertainment than regular rock climbing.

We added a large Loftbed to the apartment. It has a queen size mattress and I can walk into the desk area without hitting my head. It is a very good way to double usable space, but you do need high ceilings. I built some stairs/steps to get into the bed around the back side. I was up in Long beach a couple times this week. It is about a 20 minute drive.
