Some dear friends lost their daughter in a car crash yesterday.

Things that seemed vitally important to me at this time yesterday somehow don't seen nearly as important now.

Jack I am so sorry to hear about this tragedy

That's hard news, DR Jane.

It is.  Just praying nothing stops us from meeting Freyja.

As wonderful as they all are, and have been, it was just about the best ever.

Good Morning - home today for catch-up.  Had to call Alaska Airlines today as my flight schedule to Orlando in June has been altered.  I'm not really happy with the changes.  What was a one-way flight back to SF is now a one-stop flight leaving Orlando 7 hours earlier than I anticipated.  I'll need to ponder this a bit.  Anyway, I'm sure I'll let it go and just go with whatever. 

Groan.  I hate when that happens.  Good luck figuring it out.

Eh, it is what it is.  I'm just going with it.  I'll get to see the Seattle airport - I've never been.

When I moved to San Antonio 22 years ago, I discovered a then-unknown writer named Rick Riordan, who was the author of a series of mysteries featuring detective named Tres Navarre. The mysteries were set in San Antonio and I loved all three or four that I could get my hands on. Great descriptions of landmark restaurants, neighborhoods, attitudes.

Well, I found one on audio this week that I didn't know, Mission Road. Turns out it was from 2005. I started it yesterday, and it was so good I'm finishing it up tonight. What a treat.

It has rained the last three nights after I've gone to sleep. And it looks like it will rain again tonight. There's a 100% chance of a thunderstorm at 3 a.m. I hope I can sleep through it. I just learned that hail is possible. I hope that stays far away, too.

Got back on the bicycle again today for the first time in a few weeks. I really enjoyed the ride, but it felt like the first time again. I have to get used to looking around me more when I turn corners, especially when I'm driving around the neighborhood during rush hour.

I may take it to a park this weekend and ride around one.

Finally home after a very long afternoon and early evening, but very productive. Now eating McDonald's because that was fastest and easiest and I was starving.

My brother is always looking for new detective books to read.  I will ask if he has read any of these.
