I went up north today to look for butterflies. It was a bust. It was nice to hike with other folks, though, and the woods were nice and cool and beautiful.

I'm glad the rest of the day hike was nice.

Genghis Cohen has now been disappointing three times. Something is awry there - maybe it's just the day chef, but the orange chicken isn't even a shadow of what it used to be, same with the string beans. I don't get it. It says it's the same owners since 2015, but the last three or four times I've been there, no one, and I mean not a single person, is there from the old days.

That is a shame. Maybe the next generation is now running it.

Don't know what it is, but I'm ready to give up on it, frankly.

I just googled to see what is going on. It seems they have moved to a temporary location. Maybe they are having trouble adjusting.

I'd never heard this expression before. Someone on Quora referred to people getting together and kvetching about our ailments as giving an "Organ concert."

I've always called it an organ recital.

Ooh, that's better!

They are doing repairs on some of the airport runways, so for the next 6 weeks, the air traffic patterns have changed, and they're going right over where we live. It's noisy!

Constantly.

Enough to retire on, I think, even after taxes.

I'm trying a new melatonin - a slow release, over 6 hours. We'll see if that helps.

Is that for take-offs or landings? Or both?

From the sounds of it, both. But this too shall pass.

Planes were going over my house the night of the storm. They were turning at the end of the runway to avoid the storm that was blowing in.

They usually only go over when there's a go-around, which isn't very often.

Penguins produce an oil that helps their feathers to better retain body heat.

So, basically, the oily bird gets the warm.
