Good evening folks. It was a gorgeous day here on Grand Lake.
Rain coming in early in the morning and most of the day tomorrow. Just got in from covering the boat and golf cart back up.
Hope you all had a great day!

As a follow up to my auto insurance renewal saga, l got an unsolicited quote today via email from the agency I currently have my insurance with, and it was about $1400/year cheaper than the Germania quote. Basically, my auto insurance that was going to cost $9800 is now going to cost $5600.

Well, it's thundering and raining here ... And I am up with the damned dog. I love him but JHFC I wish he would just CALM THE **** DOWN.

Good morning gang,
Just got in from walking the dogs. It’s a beautiful sunrise this morning here at the lake.
Rain early this morning and more heavy stuff coming in a couple of hours. Enjoying my peace and quite before the storms get here.

My daughter is officially a high school graduate! My wife was super excited to get all our kids together. That’s our oldest son on the left, our daughter (obviously), our youngest son, and his beautiful wife. We thought we were going to meet my oldest son’s girlfriend for the first time, but she tested positive for covid earlier this week.

Had a day of rain here in Rhode Island yesterday, with the airport less than 2 miles away getting around 3 inches. That ended our work day yesterday, and while it is still cloudy and somewhat foggy in places, it doesn't look like we will get started very early today. I suspect it may be 10:00 am or later before we get going.

In most states that we have done our Summer job in, when it rains in one area, one can drive to another area and still keep working. Rhode Island is so small that just about any rain will cover the whole state. We are amazed that a state about the size of a postage stamp can have 5 million people in it.

That is, until we get out and start working and face the traffic and downtown pedestrians. Folks here think they can cross the streets anywhere and cars will stop for them. They also tend to park their cars wherever they want to park them. (Granted, most of that is within Providence itself, which also has a number of colleges and universities, whose attendees just almost dare a driver to hit them.)
