Barre Bootcamp at the Y

This morning was my third "barre bootcamp" at the Y. I didn't actually pick the genre, I just wanted something early on Saturdays. And all those nice Degas pictures of dancers at the barre looked peaceful and relaxed.
It is nearly 5pm. I am still healing.
It must be good for me, right?

Google Maps' Favorite Message: "GPS Signal Lost"

I use Google Maps on my cellphone quite a lot to get from place to place, espcially to audits. When I first started using cellphone navigation, it was GREAT! But in its current incarnation, it is not.
The mapping feature on my G1 (how many years ago?) was reliable and timely. Google Maps on my Samsung is usually slow, and often just gives up with its favorite message "GPS signal lost".
Fortunately today Mount Rainier was visible and provided enough orientation to get me home from Renton. Everyone should have such a handy volcano!

Everybody loves my car ....

I had a route today that involved the ferry, and as I looked up I saw
Life Rings are Peace Signs!



The other thing I learned: My car must have an amazingly attractive rear end, judging by how close some drivers stick to it!

How is this apple different from all others?

It is the first fruit from the Honeycrisp I planted last year. There will be more (only one more this year, but many thousand in years to come) but I am ridiculously pleased at this one. However ordinary it may appear, and actually is, it is the first. Everything we do affects the future, and we hope in a positive way, but rarely does a bet on the future pay off so well as planting a fruit tree.

My Blood is Top Quality!

They rated me A-plus at the Puget Sound Blood Center in Tukwila! But then again it's a blood center. They want my platelets! Still, I maintain this proves I make top quality blood. They give me cookies and stoke my ego so why not?
