Went to the Musical Instrument Museum, www.mim.org Best $20 I've spent in forever. Absolutely spectacular one of a kind global musical instrument museum. Paid extra to see the Stradivarius exhibit, just perfect.
If you're ever in the Phoenix area it's definitely worth a trip.

thanks for this. DS leaves for luthier school in Phoenix in July. We would love this. Plus, DD plays violin

Sensi Thermostat, Excellent Review here, Love it! The phone app is worth every penny. The 1-1.5 degree range is amazing.

Yay, the Boy Scouts are doing a food drive and it's very convenient. They've tied plastic grocery bags to front doors with a note card inside about their project and also the types of canned goods that are most wanted.
I had about 8 cans in the pantry that are still fresh and will be now going to the food bank with very little effort from me.
Good going, Boy Scouts!

I remember my oldest sons Eagle Award ceremony. I was part of it. I worked with him all the way through scouts. This is an organization that does a lot of good. He is a good kid. I call him kid...he will be 30 this year. Tomorrow we are going to run some errands together and we will have lunch. I am a lucky man.

My friend in the city finally found some soy curls in Canada. Yay.

Okay, had to look up what the heck "soy curls" are. So they are a meat substitute?
They sell them on Amazon, but seem pretty expensive.
Almost $12.00 per pound?

had a chip repaired in my windshield a couple of years ago and it started to crack last week. I think from being parked outside during ice and snow.
Started with a 3 inch crack which is repairable and free with Allstate Ins. The day before the mobile unit was scheduled to come, I went outside for lunch and the 3 inch crack was over a foot long. That means I had to pay $278. Not happy and if I had been just a little quicker to report and schedule I would still have my $278.
Live and learn.

At Westminster kennel club show, the bulldog beat the poodle.

I missed that, shoot, that is Buddy's favorite show. He goes nuts over dogs on tv, he will whine, bark and try to play with the dogs on tv for the entire Dog Show if you let him. His owner was elderly and watched tv a ton. When it is on, he goes and sits politely in front of it and watches for "puppies" even though it could be hours before a dog crosses the screen. No reaction to any other animal. I tivo dog shows for him, lol.
