Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of the garage, and now it is time for you to post until the garage cows come home.

Agreed!  They're really cool!

And now, I'm off to bed.  I have no plans for today other than TV watching and laundry doing.  My sister wants to go to the newly remodled IKEA, so I may go with her.  I'm sure we'll be back in time to see the first episode of the new "Star Trek Discovery" TV show.  It'll be the only episode broadcast on regular TV.  The rest of the series will only be available on the CBS All Access pay-subscription service. :P

I had missed reading about this, however,  I noticed Keith put it on our calendar 😊

An early one for me on a Sunday, as I am making some rounds today -- the best of which will be dropping in on our DR Elmore.

Ask BK:

Which Brahms piano concerto, #1 or #2?

I haven't listened to these in a long time, but I'm thinking #2 is the more immediately likable of the two, or the most well known.

WONDERFUL scans in the notes.

I only ever got one telegram in my life, and it would have been in the summer of 1968.  I've regretted for years that I never kept it.  I know I did for a little while, but it must have been gone within a couple of years.  Also, it wasn't like BK's where they paste the message on the paper.  It was printed directly.  Still, a real telegram.

My favorite photo in the notes is the one with the big smile which is larger than the big initial ring.

(My telegram was the Meadowbrook School of Music in Rochester, Michigan (hi, DR Ginny) telling me I was admitted into their summer program.  Which wasn't a huge deal, as most people already knew they were in, and it wasn't like it was a big application process or anything in those years.  Still, I have always remembered my pleasure and excitement the afternoon it arrived.)

I am a mess today.  I went to bed at 11, slept until 1:15, then lay awake until 3:00 or so. I'm up and moving about but I keep thinking, I need another bit of sleep.  After nodding between 8:00 and 8:45, I decided to get out of bed and get some coffee.

DR vixmom, you;re right about Siamese cats.  I could see ours think before she did something.  If you made her angry, you could see it and hear it in her voice.  She was one smart cat.

On my trip up from the basement, the elevator stopped twice between floors.  I pressed "close" and it continued to three.  I fear this bodes ill for the next week or so.
