My wife and I went out to dinner the other night. As we were leaving the parking lot we saw a bunch of tents and trailers over in the park. I pulled the car over to see what was happening; it usually means some sort of circus or rodeo is in town. Well, a deputy sheriff pulled in right behind us! WTF, well, turns out all that stuff was for the fire crews and the park was off-limits for the rest of us. LOL I haven't been parking with a woman and questioned by the cops in centuries! Made me glad I'd only had one beer with dinner too!
Since we haven't done any traveling yet this summer and won't be leaving this country, I've been getting my Europe fix by watching Le Tour de France. The scenery is simply fantastic - and the cycling! Those guys are at a level of fitness that I really can't believe. Riding 100 miles or more a day for three weeks? Amazing. The Tour is the only cycling event that I follow; sports aren't really an interest but this stuff is pretty impressive.
The birds are still hanging around waiting to be fed. The only birds that show up in the birdbath are pigeons but I guess they are birds too. The hummer keeps his ownership of the feeder chasing anyone else off.
We've been doing a lot of cooking on the bbq but I seem unable to take photos of the event. It is warm to be out there but it's better than heating up the house. I've done chicken twice, steak, salmon twice and that is just in the last week. The meat and a salad is our usual fare. It's pretty low on carbs for my wife and if I'm famished I can always nuke a baking potato.
After dinner we often go out and enjoy the sunset. You know I don't have any trouble remembering the camera for a sunset!
Well, gotta go do something even if it is wrong. Have a good one!

Seems pretty far for the fire crews, but I guess it's away from the smoke and available water.
