I’ve been so busy catching up after the New England foray, that I haven’t had a chance to update for days. When I said things would get back to normal around here, that isn’t exactly what I meant. And then there was the holiday, etc. Anyway, Tuesday always is a good reset day at arloandjanis.com. Here’s a late Labor Day-weekend cartoon from 2009. It accurately reflects how Labor Day was around here. I did get out Monday evening on a local lake after the craziness had subsided, and I saw a bald eagle. Was I ever angry! I’d just spent a lot of money and trouble to get to Maine, where I saw eagles, and here was one in my own county. I felt cheated.

Glad you saw lots of eagles in Maine! So sorry you feel cheated . . .
This is for Jerry. This Motel 6 used to be called The Columbia Inn and dates waaaaay back. Elvis slept here in 1962 when we presume it was newer, I-5 did not pass through parking lot and we were all much younger, even me.
I am putting on enough clothes to go out to truck and find something to wear. I thought of just wrapping a large scarf around me temporarily.
The TIP blogspot for Monday was cute:

Ok, read my Elvis history and he and Me.Phil Mafia stayed
Here enroute to Seattle to film it Happened At the Worlds Fair.and ran up biggest bill in history of hotel which was brand new then. I was at that fair too but not with Elvis. In famous red convertible.
In search of Walmart to fix glasses. One eyed dog right now.
Not to be indelicate, but just how much snot can one head produce, anyway?

Yours or mine? Allergy season in Pacific Northwest. Benadryl and others. Can you fly? The nose wouldn’t bother me running.
Seriously, got my glasses repaired, ate a very unhealthy potato pancake and vegetarian scramble with hollandaise. Onto last leg of trip and I am there. I like Washington more than Oregon but if I’d been able to see the Columbia River drive I’d have enjoyed it more.

Some pretty ladies there. I noted that one was 100% naked. (I didn’t have to do the math.)
That was subtraction, obviously.
Ghost – Not to be indelicate, but I’d guess somewhat close to the amount of phlem clogging up my lungs. Will be sleeping upright on the couch tonight. After a long, sucky, day, it was nice to come home to a hot shower and my trusty Vick’s Vaporub.
100%? What counts? Do suds qualify as clothing? The girl on the bike nr the end comes closest. Some of the props or locales were more interesting than many of the models.
Peace,
I am within spitting distance of my destination since y’all are all discussing mucous. Liquidity very high up here, Temps in 60s and it is so thick with tall trees my satellites and cell aren’t working well.
I would say break out a sextant and a navigation chart if GPS signals fail. But it’s probably cloudy there, too.
For you non-sailors and non-airmen out there, a “sextant” is not a selfie Anthony Weiner sends on his cell phone.
GR 6 isn’t that just after octant? or before?

You know that little thing inside your head that
keeps you from saying things you shouldn’t?
**********************************
Yeah, I don’t have one of those.
The clouds were spilling down the mountains and hills and up from sea. I have balcony door open to water but it is in 50s here so will probably close it until morning.
Boats lying off just below. I think I own a sextant but can’t use it. Can you?
Very tired and I have to haul up some clothing and go lock truck. Here’s my hotel. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1657928701185531&id=100009052528502
Definitely not the room Officer and A Gentleman was filmed in. That is in old section of inn.

About 2-3 skulls full and that is only 1 day.
Cannot stand leaving Dickens in truck, am going to try to move to an old room he can stay in. He is my most loyal and loving friend. Loves me more than anyone else ever has. How can I sleep here and leave him down there?
He remembers being here last year and headed for that room. I almost cried and feel like it now. I am a miserable example.
Lady Mindy, my snot says “hello” to your phlegm.

I’m shocked by the number of adults, including cops, who didn’t know it wasn’t counterfeit!

It is shocking what people do not know –
especially people in authority.
Some sounded as if it were just a power trip.
And other people wonder why the public is losing
respect for authority.
Good Morning Villagers…
GR and Indy Mindy….thought my nose was bleeding but it’s not 🙂
Hope the two of you get to feeling better real soon
Glad Jackie made her final destination
