Back from the gynecologist.

Well, let me clarify that, if I may.  Back from Kristi's gynecologist, where, thirteen days following the big surgery, she's been given the all clear on everything, including taking hot baths, rolling over in bed, driving, returning to work, anything she feels like doing as long as she's careful lifting small weights for a while longer.  Doc said it's the fastest recovery she's ever seen.  They just have to keep a close eye on those fibroids, and they'll laser the others as required.  This one became a monster and, left unchecked, would probably have eaten Manhattan next.

I'd guess my all time favorite family outings were road trips, especially the long ones (Ohio to NYC or Florida, Florida to the northeast and midwest, etc.).  I'm trying to remember what else in our life in Columbus in the 1950s would have constituted family outings.  Simple picnics here and there.  Ohio state fair.  In Florida in the 1960s, drive-in movies, and roadshow movies for which we had to drive to Miami.  Miniature golf.  Long Sunday drives.  I'd bring maps and give my dad directions to streets and places I wanted to see.

T.O.D.

I, honestly, can't recall any "favorite family outings".

From the late 1940s through most of the 1950s, we did spend 3 summer months at our home in Soap Lake, WA.

For a kid, it was rather boring, but on the plus side, Soap Lake did supply the background for my first novel (NOBODY DROWNS IN MINERAL LAKE) and my stage play, THE SUMMER FOLK.

We never had regular things that we did. But I remember going to Cavehill Cemetery for a few outings. It was a beautiful spot with ducks in the pond.

It's where Mom and Dad eventually bought their burial lots. We went there on my recent visit. Though we only stayed in the burial area this time, it remains a tranquil and lovely area, with the exception of the Col. Harlen Sanders memorial. Very tacky.

And now for something completely different...I was looking at this article of pictures, Month in Space Pictures: Marvelling at the Eclipse, Harvey from Orbit and More (https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/month-space-pictures-eclipse-marvels-harvey-orbit-more-ncsl797701).  I love this one labeled "Moon Shadow":

(https://media2.s-nbcnews.com/j/newscms/2017_35/2139226/ss-170830-misp-mn-11_3f765d65a888b344c5b216ddce09f4a4.nbcnews-ux-1024-900.jpg)
The umbra, the moon's shadow, crosses the United States as seen from the space station on Aug. 21. The station crossed the path of the eclipse three times as it orbited 250 miles above the Earth.  The total solar eclipse moved across the country at 1,500 miles per hour, passing through twelve states.

Bruce has chastised me for being a derelict commenter on this blog :)
Yes, it's true.  Though I do read his blogs :)

We attended both Kritzerland 80th as well as The Film Thing.   Kritzerland was wonderful, especially this show as we were treated to songs most of us never hear.  I always enjoy Bruce's notes and the back stories to the songs.
Jason Graae is a very funny fellow and it was a treat to see him perform again.

The Film Thing was also good fun, made moreso by Bruce's comedic flair.  I especially enjoyed his deliberately butchering the Morricone song title "Per le antiche scale".    PAIR LAY ANTEEESH  SCAYLE.   Dio mio!

Robert Yacko never disappoints, his powerful voice was a nice counterpoint to Maegan McConnell's ethereal soprano.   Having seen her perform last year for the evening of Star Trek music, I have dubbed her the Queen of "Wordless Songs".   This lovely twosome was backed by an outstanding cellist, flutist, trumpet player and pianist.    A balmy L.A. evening, enhanced by these talents. :)

DR Ginny and I had hoped to visit DR JRand67 but time and logistics were against us today, so we're hoping to visit on my next trip.  So, we went to Miami U, spent some time with the Special Collections Dept., had a nosh at a nice Chinese place, The Big Bistro, and I am back with Randy and Jo.  I've turned over my house keys, and I am about to begin packing.  Right after dinner.

It would be so great if this could happen when I'm there, too.

Yes indeedy!

Back from the gynecologist.

Well, let me clarify that, if I may.  Back from Kristi's gynecologist, where, thirteen days following the big surgery, she's been given the all clear on everything, including taking hot baths, rolling over in bed, driving, returning to work, anything she feels like doing as long as she's careful lifting small weights for a while longer.  Doc said it's the fastest recovery she's ever seen.  They just have to keep a close eye on those fibroids, and they'll laser the others as required.  This one became a monster and, left unchecked, would probably have eaten Manhattan next.

Excellent.  I have never been told I made a fast recovery.  If I am lucky I am on schedule.

I had to take a break from watching the news on the fire that is dropping ash on us.  " The Eagle Creek Fire raging in the Columbia River Gorge exploded Monday night, forcing hundreds out of their homes, closing down a major portion of Interstate 84, and threatening an Oregon treasure: Multnomah Falls." 

The Bridge of the Gods is closed.  This is the beautiful area we drove through on Saturday and have been taking our company to see.

Fire stoppage vibes.

Thank you.

Bruce has chastised me for being a derelict commenter on this blog :)
Yes, it's true.  Though I do read his blogs :)

We attended both Kritzerland 80th as well as The Film Thing.   Kritzerland was wonderful, especially this show as we were treated to songs most of us never hear.  I always enjoy Bruce's notes and the back stories to the songs.
Jason Graae is a very funny fellow and it was a treat to see him perform again.

The Film Thing was also good fun, made moreso by Bruce's comedic flair.  I especially enjoyed his deliberately butchering the Morricone song title "Per le antiche scale".    PAIR LAY ANTEEESH  SCAYLE.   Dio mio!

Robert Yacko never disappoints, his powerful voice was a nice counterpoint to Maegan McConnell's ethereal soprano.   Having seen her perform last year for the evening of Star Trek music, I have dubbed her the Queen of "Wordless Songs".   This lovely twosome was backed by an outstanding cellist, flutist, trumpet player and pianist.    A balmy L.A. evening, enhanced by these talents. :)


It is nice to see you posting.  Thank you for your lovely review.

I just finished watching the extras on La Bete Humaine, and this is the reason I love Criterion. The extras were incredible. There was a short 7-minute clip from some long-forgotten French TV show, made in the 1950s, that had Jean Renoir once again directing Simone Simon in the scene leading up to her death. The give and take between director and actress was wonderful.

There was another program from French TV on adapting Zola for film. They used La Bete as the start of their discussion but it went on to include talk of Fritz Lang's version of the same tale, Human Desire, with Glenn Ford in the lead role. I saw the film in the last couple of years and forgot all about it, until this mention.
