All the car clubs were out today. Not sure why, except that it is Sunday. The weather is questionable, rainy at times.

I would love to get my Baby out to show her off some, but not doing it if rain is likely.

I think it is just that EVERYONE is dying for decent weather and trying to start things up, anyway.

I did stop to admire a Model A Ford, though.

That's why I stopped working on Sundays.

My overthinking gets the best of me on Sundays when I am not working.

Better read my book now

I loved my trip there back in the late 70's.  Took the overnight ferry from Nova Scotia.   8)

My friend is asking about what it's like being on the spectrum.... I think it's her that's asking about the signs/symptoms of autism for herself...

I went there for my Honeymoon in 91.  The ride over was very rough even the crew was getting sick but after that it was a great trip

Being Father's Day, which I completely forgot about until my wife showed the three new hummingbird feeders she got for me, the hotrods clubs were out and about.

I thought about taking out my baby, but decided to stay home with the family.

Saw a lot of nice hot rods, though, just playing Daddy Taxi.

Hummingbird feeders are working. I suppose. Birds seem to linger longer.
Bought this fancy stuff with extra calcium to help with egg laying, label says.
I don't believe it yet.

I have been wanting to cut back some of the trees and keep the street look more "limbed up,"  but everywhere I start to cut back there's another cardinal, robin or blackbird nest right above my head.
I can't. Cutting limbs would harm them. I'm way beyond the "fuck it they're just birds" mentality. These are my birds. It falls to me to care for them.

I'm just going to wait, leave things wild for now.
Still getting to know my neighbors, including all my new friends with wings.
Don't need to know any more about the commenting strollers walking by who waste my time performing petty intelligence displays for no reason.

Everybody wants to stop by and tell me how nice the couple was who lived here before us. Is it a challenge for me to be nice, too?
Old man died, then a year later, old woman died. Kind of how it goes. I get it!!
