Open water workouts are over on my masters team, moving to a pool next week. I am a little bummed, swimming in salt water three days a week has been really positive but they are a great group and I am sure that swimming in the pool will have some benefits.

If you want a guaranteed turn around time for a pcr to travel you need to go to a private vendor and pay $400. I am going to gamble on the free one and hedge by scheduling a couple of them.

Most reviews are worthless. I am not putting my name online to leave one.

I do not know about 40K but it is my understanding that transmission fluid flushing or changing in high millage vehicles causes more harm than good. All of those recommendations look quite suspect in my opinion. Had a buddy years ago that fell for that shit at a jiffy lube, they smoked the engine and he was left with a recently paid off ride that he could not drive. Paid off at minimum wage no less.

It has been a while, perhaps now would be a good time for me to go back and listen to some Marley, before and after Scratch. If memory serves Lee moved them way along, Joe Strummer also, what a heavy hitter.

Crazy that you caught that mushroom taking a selfie

There may have been a name change or something but I have been there before, the blankets to go with the outdoor seating was a nice touch if I recall correctly. So far Stella Luna is my go to, I might not have time to do any touristic stuff this time but I will make it there for gelato whitout fail.

I am visiting our neighbors to the north, thinking I will fly to the nearest US airport and then rent a car and drive, more control that way and since you can not yet fly from USA to Ottawa it will be a wash on time and money.

I just canceled travel plans due to new covid restrictions and am in the middle of planning an upcoming trip which will require not one but three tests and a written quarantine plan.

I kind of gave up on Beck after the late 90's, maybe I should give his stuff another listen, I really liked one foot in the grave at the time. Back in the height of K records.

reminds me of

I joined a masters swim team, we swim three times a week, open water in the summer, pool in the winter. The last time I swam on a team was about ten years ago, it is hard to keep up but I am glad to be in a group. For the moment I have dropped other fitness but am thinking at the very least I need to do some daily walking to offset all the time I spend sitting on my ass at work. It is hard to overcome so much sedentary time when for decades I have been doing physical work at work.
