It's not quite mid-August...but I could swear there are hints of fall approaching! We had two nights of heavy rain last week; it's mostly been hot during the day, but cools off nicely at night. We were out tonight, watching the Perseid meteor shower. Be sure to check and see if it's showing in your neck of the world, as well.
Daughter #2 and Son #1 have been dropping in and out between their rock shows -- and granddog Freya is staying here, as well. (Which is nice.) We have a quick trip to Palisade planned while they're here, to buy peaches and give ourselves a short break.
Then back to work.
Small acts of kindness that made a big difference.
An authentic Hermes bag, found at a thrift store...ends up to be a fake!
Suicide...or spontaneous combustion? Even after an investigation, the authorities still don't know.
The United Nations fires 9 employees -- who just happen to be connected to Hamas.
A classic from yours truly on facing -- and facing up to -- past actions.
One of the arches at Glen Canyon National Park collapsed! No deliberate damage -- just Nature doing her thing.
An extremely funny (and weird) interview with Ryan Reynolds, his mom, his friend...with his wife's leading man. You need to see this!
Influencers who got (a little bit of) what they deserved. Then generally whimpered about it...
Julius Caesar's cologne has been recreated -- although it's missing one essential ingredient: "gladiator sweat." (Patchouli was substituted.)
Why are Roman hobnails (from their sandals) being found in the refuse from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem? (If you haven't heard about the Temple Mount Sifting Project, you'll enjoy this.)
The Wife-Carrying World Championships in Hungary -- the winner gets his wife's weight in beer!
Have a good week.
