Congrats Shelly and Yumi!  I'm very pro CO meetups, even if I myself am thousands of miles away.  Durango is a truly charming town, and while the price of houses now is eye-watering, you sure chose a good one.

That place looks great, Shelly! I love SW Colorado, such a gorgeous region. Plus Ska Brewing!  I see a Tesla road trip to yours plus Michelle's friends in Pagosa and Albuquerque in our future!

 Congrats Shelly and Yumi.

Sure.  All you have to do is first institute a state income tax.

That’s fair. Florida seems to have it figured out though. I would rather have an income tax than property tax. The latter gets upped with no cap and I get to pay it until I am in the grave.

We went to see an absolutely hilarious new comedy at Chichester, in the tiny 300 seat Minerva theatre. Called "The Unfriend" https://www.cft.org.uk/whats-on/event/the-unfriend

This was directed my Mark Gatiss (Mycroft Holmes in the series Sherlock), and had a cast of 7. Including Amanda Abbington (Dr Watson's assassin wife in Sherlock) and Reese Shearsmith (Inside no 9). It was belly laugh funny.

 

Had a really good service for my Brother, with an amazing slideshow. Several people told some great stories about him. Just really nice.

Really glad to hear it went so well. 

Glad for a good service....memories are a blessing, keep them close and always remember the good.

I was on a Boat 

Past the Golden Gate Bridge 

To San Francisco

Where I had a virtual interview,

Aced a test (6/6) and answered some questions, which meant I was approved to take an oath later on.

Before:

Took an oath, which included obeying laws, something which other particular oath takers and keepers seem not to have been doing . ( Sorry ' Liz)

 

Got a personal Message from Joey B 

But that's just between him and me. 😉

After:

And then with my new cultural sensibilities,

I felt the need,

The need for speed .

And then came home.

 

Q: Fellow citizens, how long do I have to wait for the desire for an F150 with a rack of AR-15's to manifest itself, as it doesn't seem to be happening yet?

Should I be concerned?

Joanne is scheduled for similar ( minus Tom Cruise) on Friday.

Congrats, fellow American 

 

Congrats to you both. 
 

Did the oath or the movie make you more proud?
