    Hi Vagabonds

    Got up this morning to see 35 degrees and low hanging clouds, low enough to obscure the ridge top and our little mountain on the other end of the valley. Clouds early, partial clearing late in the day, High and present 37.

    Watched the Star Ship launch this morning on YouTube, Impressive and it worked this time. (^.^)

    Have fun Vagabonds and may the Lord go with you.

    ttfn

    Good morning, Vagabonds.

    Today’s forecast is back to 70/71. Considering we’ve been coming up short of the forecasts by 1 or 2 degrees every day, I predict 69. Pretty blue sky and very clear air this morning.

    The electrician that fixed the pool lights on Thursday really got my ire up yesterday. He was supposed to call me to let him in to replace an outlet in the exercise room in the morning. He not only never called (either me or the other contact person – neither of us had ANY missed calls on our phones), but he put in his report to his boss that he had tried calling repeatedly and closed out the work order. I let our community manager know exactly what had happened and told her to pass that on to the electrician’s boss.

    Mark, I went to the Weather Channel and their headline said that the Starship test flight ended in two explosions. I didn’t read any further.

    We’re in the middle of Formula One weekend here in Vegas. Mike has subscribed to the “F1” channel on Roku so we’ve been watching some of the highlights of the practice runs. The first night one of the little (8" or so) manhole covers popped up from the vibration of the cars running on the streets (two of the cars hit it and it damaged the undercarriage of one and put the other one completely out of commission) so they stopped the practice session after 9 minutes in order to take the time to weld down every last one of them. One hopes that they remove the welds when the race is over tomorrow morning. Last night was the qualifying heats and Mike is coming over this afternoon so he and Michael can watch them (prerecorded) on our big TV. The race starts at 10:00 tonight. I’m glad I don’t live near enough to the race course to hear it!

    Bible study this morning was great, as usual. It’s so much fun to study God’s Word with a group of women and our teacher/leader is very good.

    Everyone have a blessed day.

    Howdy Vagabonds

    It’s Sunday and there be snow on the ground and 30 degrees at the getting up time. Cloudy skies and a chance for snow flurries, the high is going all the way up to 35.

    I gather that the Starship made it high enough to get into space but did not get into orbit before the URD occurred (Unexpected Rapped Deconstruction) That’s a SpaceX term. Well, it’s back to the old drawing board.

    Soon be getting ready for church, pot roast for the Sunday meal, then veg the afternoon away.

    Have a great Sabbath Vagabonds and the Lord be your guide.

    ttfn

    Good morning, Vagabonds.

    Michael watched the race last night. He said that the commentators said that for a race on city streets, it was the most exciting one they had seen this season (this was race 22 of 23). I won’t spoil it for anyone who wants to watch a rerun or look it up for themselves.

    I’m off to church this morning, continuing in the study of Acts. After that I’ll do the last of my Thanksgiving shopping. I need to make the raw cranberry relish so it can sit and blend flavors. We’re planning a very traditional turkey dinner. I buy the breast only because neither of us cares for dark meat. It works out just fine.

    We woke up to 57 degrees this morning, down from 72 yesterday. Today’s forecast is for only 66.

    Everyone have a blessed Sunday.
