Made the switch to Maui Jim, so far my favorite sunglasses I’ve had in years.

Watching the video Mark Zuckerberg posted on July 4th, and imagining that John Denver is rolling over in his grave.

Best sunglasses in my opinion.  Their customer service is fantastic as well.  That is all SWMBO and I wear.

They’re heavy. That’s my issue. The glasses I replaced are my day to day. My fishing glasses are heavy too, but they’re Costa 580’s with glass lenses. 

Problem I really have is Luxxotica. They own everyone!

I am out on luxxotica, the Maui Jims I picked up are light, adjustable nose piece and glass frames. Also I like the collapsible carry case

Yeah, I love the frames I have.  Super light weight and I love the case as well.

I must’ve browsed the wrong ones years ago

Arrested a guy yesterday for three felonies. Today, he is already out causing a domestic disturbance.

Depressing.

Years ago, in the middle of a summer night at our previous place, I heard a howling from my third storey bedroom. At first I ignored it, but an hour or more in, it sounded more and more human and eventually became too much to bear. Walked out to investigate whatever was out there and it was a man in my neighbour’s yard. Heard my neighbours yell from their window to tell me that they had called the cops and that I should get back into my house. Apparently, the guy had been banging on their back patio door trying to get in. When the cops arrived and saw the perp, they said “YOU AGAIN?!?! We’ve already picked up your wife.”

The first travel with the hitch rack I picked up and restored. The KBQ, cooler, and air mattress went on the back for a ride. 



The KBQ doing it's thing this weekend at our family friends lake house. 



We smoked a couple stuffed pork loins. The recipe calls for pesto but I couldn't find it at two grocery stores we stopped at on the way. So I had to do some substituting. The first pork loin I went with a Caribbean jerk wing rub with cream cheese, roasted, peepers, spinach, and bacon. The second I went with a parmesan garlic wing rub, cream cheese, roasted peppers, spinach, bacon, and sauted mushrooms. I'm not sure which I liked more. I think I might go with the Caribbean jerk wing seasoning and the sauteed mushrooms as I liked the slight heat of the jerk seasoning. Always fun to change things around to see what does/doesn't work. 



Homemade mac and cheese.

I find if I go to my 4th or 5th story bedroom, all the mayhem at the street level is barely noticeable.   I just lob jars of Grey Poupon at the proletariat below and they usually scurry off into their distant hovels, presumably to elevate the edibility of their hotdogs... out of sight and out of mind.

Built more shelves.  Not done, many more to come.  Bringing order to disorder takes effort.

just replaced a pair where the frame gave out after about 18 or so years, they said to send the old ones back to see if they had temples to fit. they are in the box ready to go back with  a note that says i dont need them to match in color or even to fit the frames well, i just want the light green lenses to fish with. worth every penny

Finally broke down and went to the eye doctor for the first time in 35 years. Surprise, everything falls apart in your late 40's - time to start wearing glasses

Yep, the 80:20 principle for crime / suspects operates over here, too.

Fully ready for EURO 2020 Italy vs Spain semi-final match.  This should be quite a contest.

Ahh, the beach during a direct strike from now expected Cat 1 Elsa! Enjoy the chaos!

This Italy-Spain match is down to the short pk strokes.  Spain owned the ball but that's soccer/futbol!

Especially for Spain, they need a more reliable striker badly!  Looking forward to England/Denmark tomorrow.

Watching a Cape Cod Baseball League game. It’s like being in a Norman Rockwell painting.

Thanks for sharing. I haven’t been to a game like that in years, and I grew up playing some ‘ball. Nostalgia.

@Foghorn - playing with wood baseball bats to get them some run time for the next level (at least that's how it used to be).  High end talent was always playing there.  
Enjoy the evening, setting and time with family!

Quick getaway with the lady. Can’t beat the view.

Picked up hay with my 16yo nephew from 8pm till 2am.  Definitely some gas money heading his way.

We use bobcats and accumulators but still a lot of work.
