I was down at the New Amsterdam

Shawshank, September 23, 2020

What a long day yesterday. In the truck for about 8.5 hours. That makes for a long day. The part that was supposed to be fixed, couldn’t be, for the price that they were willing to pay, so we brought it back. Frustrating on that end.

Although, I was surprised when, as we were waiting for them to figure out what they were going to do with the part, my mom drove to a book store.

“Go and get your book, the newest one, we’ll use amazon for the others.”

So after that, we’re on our way home. And we’re driving through all these really small little towns. I see a sign,

“That sign just said Eiffel Tower that way…..”

Sure enough, there’s the Eiffel Tower. Of course I get out and take pictures for Crystal. Which, hours and hours later, as she lay in bed, I got her to edit them, as my photoshop decided it didn’t want to play well with me. I can’t decide which edits I like the best, so over the course of the week, you’ll see them all.

I’m awake, I promise that I am. I slept like the dead last night. I slept like the dead this morning as well. Minus about 39 seconds, when Pippin was trying to get into the bedroom closet. I threw a towel at her, got up and made sure everything was…

Fire up that loud another round of shots turn down for what?

Ahhhhh. Crystal let me sleep in. But I feel bad, Crystal was probably up wicked early, and then she just laid in bed scrolling. I mean, she could’ve been up and mostly dressed sitting next to me on the couch, scrolling. Ok, I see your point. It’s bright and sunny…
