On a bike ride around Portland harbor and caught this view as a cruise ship was leaving. Don't think I'd want to be on one of those sailboats!

NPR listeners of a certain age may recognize this window sign in Harvard Sq. as a running joke from the "Car Talk" show. It was hosted by two brothers that owned an auto repair shop & would give humorus advice. They would refer to this fictitional firm as their attorneys at the end of each show. 😆

Went to an art museum today and saw this clever installation that is viewed through a window, and is actually across the street in a different building. Zooming in, it appears to be an abstract of a person looking back at you thru a telescope.

Ending the weekend with an improvised Sidecar, substituting Brandy for Cognac, and Orange Curaco for Cointreau. A bit heavier on the orange notes but still quite delightful. 🍸

Went to a car show today and saw this 1961 Thunderbird, similar to one my grandmother had. The steering column moved left or right to ease access to the driver's seat. Flashing back to memories of her moving the wheel while driving after a few martinis to tease us as kids. She was cool!

Maybe it's the several major life changes I've experienced over the past 3 years, but more recently I find myself getting sentimental over the silliest things. Today I had to replace a 22-year-old washer/dryer unit, and it was like losing an old friend. 🤷

Walking the beach today, came across these foot prints that could have been an Escher print, as they appeared to be both protuding and impressed in the wet sand, depending on how you looked at them. A fun optical illusion, but a bit creepy nonetheless! 🏖️🦶

Let’s PLEASE NEVER FORGET one of Dolly’s most important & enduring legacies — she funded/championed the development of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine amid much doubt, uncertainty and fear about a vaccine. In doing so, she helped save millions of lives… — including mine! 🥺🥺 Thank you! 🙏🏼 #DollyParton

Walking the beach I saw two young kids trying to get their kites in the air with barely any breeze, being watched by their mom. I joked with her that it was a tough day for kite flying. She replied of course they will never get them in the air, but they're going to sleep early and well tonight! 😆

Proud that I got out of Costco today with just the items on my short list. After I smugly said to the mature receipt checker woman at the exit that I got off cheap today, she put her hand on top of mine, looked me in the eye and said "oh honey, you'll be back" 😂

Purchased an item that was marked down at a big box store, but the sale price was not ringing in at self checkout. A nice employee came to manually override for the sale price. The item was marked down to $51, but they rang it in as $15, as the price tag was positioned upside down in my cart. 🙂 🤷💲
