I've always thought the goal of high-end audio was not to have your neighbors bang on the wall and say, 'Turn that darn music down' but to have your neighbors bang on the wall and say, 'Tell your friends to go home and you can practice later this week'.
My new grass seed is sprouting fantastically. I hope the coming stifling heat doesn't kill them. I'll have to try and keep them watered through this summer FOR SURE if I want to start to regain my yard.
Poor Ellicott City Maryland and prayers go out to the Guardsman's family.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

It’s going to get cold here tonight, by FL standards anyway. Too cold, by Micah standards anyway.
I’m a sissy when it comes to cold temperatures.
90's in the day and 70's at night is typical Fl weather which is what we have now....lil front this weekend might bring it to a low of 68 and to high in low 80's which is still on the warm side
32 degrees Rain changing to snow were spose to get 8-12 inches of snow blizzard conditions with the wind.changing to 15-25 mph.
Drove the wife to work this morning as it will be pretty nasty and I got to pick her up as she hates driving in that stuff. I must say locust street is pretty lit up somebody put up fancy new halogen street lights up and down locust street they did a good job. I think Lightman was responsible for that good job Russ.

Looks good Mr Hardy, dont get me wrong once you clean up it's cool to sit back and enjoy the snow, pretty soon the lake will be frozen over, ice fishing, and winter activities will be in full swing. It does get old come February.
Nice view you got there for sure, morning coffee tunes and looking out the window of that beautiful landscape enjoy it. Looks like the bird feeder needs tending to
