Monday Musings - July 18, 2016


1. I find it hard to believe that July is half over. It seems as if the summer is just finally getting underway. I think I need a summertime siesta.

2. Falling into the backyard pool after a round of golf on a hot Sunday is a great way to cool off.

3. It was a great golf weekend, in concert with The Open, I was able to get in two rounds of golf-- both at the Crofton Country Club.

4. Cross country flying can be a draining experience, especially flying from Los Angeles. I don't think I still have fully reacclimatized to the time zone.

5. I can tell that the summer is moving along, it is getting darker earlier and the suns rising later. I checked, there is already 20 minutes less of daylight than at the beginning of the month.

6. My hands are covered with paint. Why is painting such a messy job?

7. I saw the Pacific Ocean last week, but was not able to sit on the beach and enjoy the sun, sand, and surf. I wonder when I will be able to get in a bit of "beach" time.

8. Someone I was traveling with proposed that the breeze coming off the Pacific Ocean smells different than the Atlantic Ocean breeze. I think it is true.

9. It is time for some mid-summer fun, before the summer runs out.

10. It is political convention time. Our future is at stake.
