    1. Ditto weekend, lol. If only there were drinks, too.

    2. Grilled a steak, had potato salad to go with. Nom.

    3. It cooled off enough to take a nice stroll.

    Bonus: TWO dead heats in a row at the racetrack, one involving an old favorite of mine.
    My other pen is a Montblanc.

    1. An olive oil bottle label I designed around a pen and ink sketch (TWSBI mini EF, Noodler's Dark Matter) of their olive orchard went to the printer.

    2. My position as an architectural drafter dried up a couple of months ago, a friend called, he owns and operates a kennel I designed a decade ago, standing in front of his desk was a new client, an Architect, who, in casual conversation mentions, he is looking for a drafter. We'll see!

    3. I'm off to meet with a Plein Aire painting group this morning to lose myself in art in a historic Chinese town on the Sacramento delta. Thinking oils on canvas with a knife this time.

    I know these events seem to span two days but I'm taking my "day" out of the middle. One can do that when one is an unemployed bum.

    1. My son, who I coach, pitches complete game 1-hitter
    2. He comes to bat in the bottom of the last inning with two outs and hits a 3-run walk-off home run to win the game and clinch first place
    3. Man, I don't need a third thing!
