Morning all,

Gonna be hot and humid today with a high of 91 and a "real feel" of 98.  I will walk this morning before it gets that hot. 

Glad to see Bob made it to Europe.  Also good to hear Raymo is joining the retired ranks soon.

I got the "playroom" picked up from when the one set of grandkids were here 2 weeks ago, the other set will be here in 2 weeks, so much more cleaning has to be done.

Jeff

Good morning all,

Actually it's afternoon here. Did an interesting walking tour of Lucerne this morning. We'll head back out shortly to do some shopping and find a restaurant to have a nice meal in. So far the food has been wonderful. Tomorrow we board our ship, the Modi, in Basel. We'll explore Basel a bit before we set sail.

Have a great one!

Good Afternoon;

Overcast, muggy and about 90. The granddaughter and friends have been having a great time. They came down in her father's Tesla from Toledo, took 5 stops to charge the battery. It is a first generation battery so gets maybe 250 miles before it is looking for a charger. Electric might be OK for local driving but it added about an hour and 1/2 to their drive here. I understand the generation 3 batteries are coming out that will kick mileage up to 600 before looking that will make a big difference.

Well they are off shopping today so I have my office back (it is their changing room). I will get some paperwork done and then out to the bench. Have a great day.

Jim
