The day’s thunderstorm is rumbling through. I hope there’s no hail. Plenty of folks I work with suffered hail damage last night. Car dents, broken windows, roof damage.

Oh my.  Vibes you continue to stay safe from hail damage.

Carol is home from the hospital. She’s having a bad bout of pneumonia.

Continued vibes for her.

No surprise that frozen pizza and ice cream aren't on the shelves. Comfort food for many.

I know that John G and George (?) mentioned J K Rowling's THE ICKABOG, but what wasn't mentioned was the illustration contest. Kids are asked to submit drawings relating to the series. The winning drawings will illustrate the book, which comes out in November. A very nice idea, I think. Ms Rowling cares deeply about kids and this will give them something fun during lockdown.

Re films you never expected to like...
I think a lot has to do with the advertising. Many times I've gotten a certain impression based on the ads only to find the film wasn't like that at all.

We had a quick heavy rain that sent all of the neighborhood kids into the street screaming and kicking the puddles.....

I think it’s a great idea. I didn’t want to give it all away.

Back from the market. There weren’t many people but it’s back to only about 50% wearing masks. Still some shortages. Today, canned beans were largely gone. It is a staple here. Ice cream was in full supply. Since I don’t buy frozen pizza, I don’t know about that.

I saw something about the contest but didn't really know what it is.  Thanks for the details.

I think that is cute.  I hope they weren't too loud for you.

Second all the rude people, including trespassers, were out crowding the walkway and heading down to the beach and parking where it says no parking.
