HAPPY NEW WEEK!
I hope everyone has a wonderful week!
Morning all;
EE: Thanks for updating us and we know you'll keep a close eye on OG, but take care of yourself too.
Diane: I hadn't seen that CBS piece on the condors and was unaware the LA Zoo was so involved - in fact they created the program. I gather the San Diego Wild Animal Park was involved too. The Sespe Condor preserve is 'down the road' just over an hour but is closed to the public. I remember seeing them on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon when I was there with my niece in 2018. Apparently, there are about 160 in the wild in Arizona, Utah and in the Central California (around Big Sur), including 30 in Baja California. We have some 'disabled' condors at the Santa Barbara Zoo, held in huge aviaries.
Lindybird: If you find out where I'm traveling, let me know! I love mystery tours. :-)
Annette -- I know you went somewhere not too long ago..... but when, (or where) I don't know! I have to keep a daily diary myself, to remember what I've done & where I've been, otherwise I can't remember further back than yesterday. Sorry if I'm muddled....
Edit: When I began my description of our news, I wished I hadn't started, LOL!! Pat, I think most of us have had a miserable sky today. I did some laundry but no chance of putting it outside. But I can see, in spite of the murky light today, that our spidery friends have been busily putting webs around our light fittings. Urgh.
Evening all:
PatO; How frustrating re the printer driver. Did you ever get the print the magazine? Maybe your friend with SAD can get one of those special full-spectrum (?) lights to sit in front of to help her mood?
Lindybird: That's funny. If I could remember where I'd been it would help! :-)) Oh my.
No yoga class tonight. A fire broke up around 4:30 this afternoon at the top of Highway 154, about four miles east of us. I got an emergency alert on my phone and could see the flames from the patio; it's now traveled down the hill toward populated areas and they've issued mandatory evacuation orders for folks south of the fire and just north and east of us. We've got a fire-fighting helicopter that can fly at night going back and forth and we've had brief power outages. Stronger winds from the north are due overnight, but they're very light here right now. We're glued to the TV and probably won't get too much sleep tonight....
Sorry to hear about the nearby fire Annette, I'm sure they will get it under control. To everyone else hoping you recover from the various ills soon. I'm still suffering from a bad head cold and had started taking a decongestant but it may have affected my blood pressure which I monitor regularly as I get spikes and the doctor wants a record - over the last few days it has shot up, so will stop the tablets and call the doc. They operate a triage service so before you get an appointment at the surgery the doctor will call you to discuss the problem and it works really well and I'm sure stops a lot of unnecessary appointments. Quote mild here in Suffolk 12 degrees today but getting colder towards the end of the week. Have a good Tuesday all.
Good Morning, All. Hope the situation has calmed for Annette: that sounds scary.
Harelady, sounds as if you have good doctors there: get yourself well soon.
Grey and dull here, again.
