Oh Matt, that is so not a good way to start your R&R. Hope today is very much better.
It has been so far. Great night's sleep, great breakfast, being surrounded by clouds of hummingbirds on the B&B's back deck, and a convenient cooling rain shower just as I was checking out—which let me kill time before check-in at the place I'm staying tonight by taking a walking tour of the wildlife sanctuary. Between the rain sprinkles, the cooldown, and someone in my tour bringing a (poor!) service dog, a number of the big cats were active and came right up to the fence to greet us! Or is that eat us?
In a couple of hours I'll be eating in style myself and touring the countryside aboard the Eureka Springs & North Arkansas Railway dining car.
I did minimal work today, but did a real good job on my workout for myself. Also did the dishes! Tonight Fish Fry at the local pub. Well, cajun broiled for me, but with booze and my sister for company. I finished the workout early because I knew I wasn't doing anything after dinner.
Here's hoping for minimal Friday News Dump. I've had enough of world issues this week already.
That sounds utterly delightful, Matt! Enjoy!
Ooh, that's so cool, Matt!
We're headed home from vacation tomorrow. I keep forgetting that F doesn't have camp or school next week. It's been a good vacation, but I need to be alone in a quiet room for a day now.
Also, I'll be in SF from Sept 8 through Sept 12, if anyone wants to meet up.
Aaaaaaand I will be in Philly for most of that time (a conference I did not want to attend, but must. Grrrrr).
Wow, Matt, that sounds great!
Today was one in a series of busy days. But I arranged for vacation time and a visit to see my great niece in late October, so I just have to get through the next couple of months.
Newsflash: it's still hot here. I'm out of ice but I made a pina colada with frozen pineapple and no ice and it's pretty good! Excessive Heat Warning is supposed to end tonight, really looking forward to that.
