jennlkGorgeous weather for a concert. 80F at concert start, clear skies, not humid, breezy enough to keep the bugs down but not enough to blow music away. I fumble-fingered a few places, and have no idea why -- licks I've played before, cleanly, just weren't there on Tuesday. Hope I find some of that before camp next week.
Which will be interesting -- they are requiring vaccination or a medical waiver with negative COVID test to attend; masks required for non-vaxxed, highly recommended (as of today's email) for everyone. I was planning on going up Monday and doing some touristing Monday PM/Tuesday AM, but I don't know how that's gonna work out. I would like to go to Sleeping Bear Dunes, as I've never been (we went to Warren Dunes a lot when I was a kid, which is very similar but smaller), but I'll only have a few hours on Monday afternoon, and I don't know if that's enough time. The other option I'd been pondering is doing one of the smaller winery trails in search of a decent, inexpensive, semi-dry everyday wine. (There's a really interesting distillery halfway up the Leelanau Peninsula that I'd love to visit, but they're not open on Monday. :( )
But before I go, I need to clear cruft off the kitchen table - the problem is that much of it goes on the shelves in the laundry room which I cannot get to because J hasn't done the garbage or recycling for nearly a month. I really hope he does it this weekend, but it sounds like they're kayaking on Saturday, and then there's SEMGS.
In weather news, it's been dry. I watered the strawberry beds so that I could weed them. I may need to do so again today, although they say we may get rain tomorrow. The cat has really been enjoying the nice weather, and has been spending much time outdoors. Usually on days when J has gone into the office, so I'm stuck upstairs waiting for him to come to the door. We really need to get a camera on the back door so I can tell when he's there....
In shopping news, there are empty shelves at the stores again. Canned tomatoes, chocolate chips, and birdseed are the ones that affect me, although I noticed that more than a few cereals were stocked only two or three boxes deep at the front of the shelf. Juice boxes and bottled juice and water were also looking picked over.
