    Happy Easter! The school secretary took a phone call Good Friday morning that went as follows: "What's up with the realtor's sign across the street?" "I'm looking but I don't see it." "It's right ther!" Oh... My comment was that 4x4 post realtors' signs are common, but they don't have equal length arms. St. Thomas Apostolic apparently planted three on each side of their block late on Maundy Thursday, and since they lack off-street parking, funerals and Chr'Easters showing up tend to fill the available curbside areas, including the school side of the streets.
    Property's on higher ground and in this market, they should get a great price.20230407_080723_resized[1].jpg There are turkeys in the neighborhood, often two hens with a tom that weren't bashful about going up the steps to the front doors (and neither was a student, urging his mom to go over there to get a better photo with her phone).
    The past couple days a Barcelona Red Gen 3 has been parking at the next garage bay to me, and we both admire the red Tacomas together. Offroam phone/GPS holder and Clazzio leather seat covers are coming together, the latter replacing gym workouts with stretching pull ups and pull downs, and pushing down and around the foam and fabric seat pads...

    Morning.
    Going to put the rabbit ears thus morning as I have to hide eggs.
    Going to do something different.
    I made a map with X’s on it.
    Going to put it in a tube and bucket and put it on the front steps.
    Will see if he is able to process the map and find them.

    Happy Easter everybody. May you not eat too much chocolate and find all the eggs before they smell.

    Lots of coffee this morning since I put on a pot before 6 a.m., had more through both services (9 and 10:30 plus rehearsals for praise team and choir before, and socializing with coffee and doughnuts (maple bars, too, apple fritters being gone by the time the later service ended). Stopped at LifeCare to deliver a couple reports to my friend, who was sleeping so it was three minutes in and out (faster since I was pointed to the receptionist's door button) and home by 1 p.m. to catch the end of Mariners at Guardians this afternoon on the radio. 12 innings.. Everybody have a great week!

    Strap a few of those weights in the weight room on your back. Maybe #60. That should get you in the ballpark and save you a bunch of money..
    You’re welcome… :thumbsup:
