I may watch MIDWAY on HBO in a little while since I missed it at the movie house.

There was a huge fireworks explosion. Barnum jumped straight up in the air and lost about ten feathers!

Listening to Prokofiev's second piano concerto - he was some composer.

Cooling down the house.

I got an hour into The Searchers and the disc is apparently defective. I can't get it to play after a certain point.

John G. · « **Reply #132 on:** July 04, 2020, 05:19:35 PM »

Oh, well, I'll just watch something else.

John G. · « **Reply #133 on:** July 04, 2020, 05:21:29 PM »

I was going to talk a walk, but it's still 100 degrees out there.

I asked Keith if he remembers the most expensive meal we have had. We have been unable to find the name of the restaurant or remember what we spent. It was in a little house, set back in a driveway, on an out of the way street when we lived in Michigan. Everyone kept telling us to go for our anniversary. Once inside the ambiance, food, & service were perfect. We enjoyed our special treat but never returned.

DR Jane, could that have been the Botsford Inn?

John G. · « **Reply #135 on:** July 04, 2020, 06:31:55 PM »

I did take a walk of a little less than an hour. It's sweltering out there.

J.B. is not a fan of the fireworks.

No. I was a regular house set back in a driveway. Keith says it was in Bloomfield but I think it is possible it was also in Farmington. The Inn looks nice.

It was like that our first 4th of July here. We were thankful for an invitation to the coast. Today it was 71 degrees.

DR VIXMOM is the cook off today?

Well of course, and the upstairs maid as well. Almost all the household staff are given off for the holiday.

vixmom · « **Reply #142 on:** July 04, 2020, 07:32:05 PM »

The scullery maid gets tomorrow off instead so she’ll get us our meals

I'm almost positive that my most expensive meals were those paid for on business expense accounts. So I don't have any prices to quote, but we sure ate in some great places.

DR Laura mentioned the Blue Bayou at Disneyland. I'll betcha my truly most expensive meal was the one had upstairs from there, in Club 33, on someone else's private membership. I know those memberships used to cost in the thousands per year, so it's probably billions now. An incredible experience, with acres of wonderful food to die for.

You ate in club 33?!

The scullery maid here is exhausted.

I watched 1776.

That's pretty much my only accomplishment for the day.

The fireworks are going off in all around the house. You could do a 360 -- and I did -- and see fireworks in every direction. I think because people are staying home that they spent all their money on fireworks this year.

John G. · « **Reply #149 on:** July 04, 2020, 07:41:35 PM »

I actually met my neighbor across the street for the first time. He's lived there for maybe a half year. I haven't had time to go over and introduce myself. He seems nice. A retired man named Paul.
