    we have switched to a chilly damp forecast. i am not complaining with the 4th so close and idiots with fireworks scare the crap out of us every year. might make it worse in fact, but its damp so the burn risk is less. not gone but less. we wanted to ride today but it never lightened up...

    We have a large number of various Asian restaurants here because of the population. using fresh authentic ingredients is key. I loved the green papaya salad but in my lifetime Ive never seen a green papaya in a store! any papaya at all is rare for years and this is the west which is...

    we rode the trail again this morning. weekdays are way better for population. 1.5 hours with lots of birds chirping. Maybe the people in Milwaukee were especially dumb! everyone did the iodine/baby oil thing even though it didnt do anything. I used to work on getting a tan but it...

    cathy iodine is a brownish color so it might stain your skin a little. i dont remember if it washed off immediately or not. it definitely wasn't a tan!. this was very popular in Milwaukee in about 1960. we also had Coppertone, Sea and Ski and I'm sure others but none actually had a...

    We did a walk/hike at the state park near here this morning, for 1 hr 23 minutes. it was lovely out and not that busy. school is still going most places here so then things will pick up. Saw a bald eagle up close and lots of smaller birds flitting around. its a very odd feeling...

    ha ha cathy... we found out the cats do nothing. they walk around, sniff things and do little else. its like they patrol their territory and any trespassers stroll thru only when the resident cat isnt there. there is a lot of cat traffic but i don't think we have ever seen two cats at...
