Guess you've seen this a time or two. I plunked my ass down on the hill in front of the spiral stone area and had a nice rest. Now I'm at a roadside bar listening to two old guys play Neil Young and the dead. Not so bad.

I am almost done with the back steps. Yesterday I burned the grain of the new wood with a torch to make it look like the old wood. Smelled great.

Since then I've had a pleasant camp fire smell in my nose. My nose gets smells stuck, to where every smell that registers will smell like it. But I'm wondering if it's that, or if I can just smell California burning.

Anyway, smells nice.

Being able to smell means you don't have the vid

We're getting married. You knew that, but it's 29 days away now.

We were not sure if we would wait a year and do a mid sized affair, or do a back yard wedding this year, but we decided to go ahead this year. My mom is slipping mentally, and her dad is fighting cancer (winning so far) and there are tax and health insurance benefits....

Anyway. We hired the tents, wedding planner and caterer this week. It's gonna be small... Like 25 family and close friends. I bought a new suit, Amanda bought a dress, ordered my ring and we hired a house cleaner, too. Lots of money flowing out, but this is how it goes.

I need to lose 10 pounds. I will.

And we have no idea about what to do for a honeymoon.

Good, it's about time she made an honest man out of you.
You know how lucky you are to have found her.

There are plenty of instructional videos on the net, but where to do it is a huge problem.
Hey, that can wait if necessary, the getting hitched is the best part.
Well that and the happily ever after.

That's in the running....

Thanks y'all! Some day we'll have a regular party and get some locals to come....

Seems like everything you hear begins with, "in these unprecedented times... or uncertain times..... "

All times are unprecedented. All times are uncertain. Always have been. It's the only real constant.
