July 3: What job/chore do you dread having to do?

Mowing the lawn.  I still aspire to replace all of the grass in my lawn with clover.

July 4: What is your favorite thing about living where you do?

Most of my college friends still live in the area.  And I like the manicured neglect of my backyard.

I have been trying the same thing. It’s a pity Clover is a lazy plant easily bullied by other greenery.

It's fairly small and peaceful, but close to everything.

Next year I may have a different answer to this question.

Cat boxes and doing my regular garbage pick up in the alleys behind my house. Both chores remind me how disgusting the animals I live around really are.

Everything is within walking or bicycling distance. That includes shopping, entertainment, work, museums, sports arenas, convention centers, top notch parks, and just about every flavor of restaurant you can imagine.

So, I obviously missed July 5 at this point, sorry.  Sundays just really don't work for me since I spend my mornings at church and the afternoon doing family stuff.  Sorry, I'll try for a combined Sat-Sun question next week.

Oops. I was wondering when if I was supposed to pop in as a backup. It is still the 5th in about 8 time zones. 


I was just watching / drowsing through a documentary about Flying Boats and the early glory days of Pan-Am. They were figuring out how to cross time zones nobody had ever flown across.

Wow. The font did not behave. Silly phone interface.  I have 3. Two issued by my doctors office and one issued by the HVAC crew that came to my house.

July 5: How many masks do you own?

 

No Halloween masks.

1 foam "goalie mask" from a trip with Mrs. Strawhat to watch the Frozen Four.

6 Cloth masks for help with COVID, 4 in good repair, 1 needing new ties, and 1 from work that is much too small for my ginormous melon.  Work tried to give me another one, and I just laughed and told them to keep it.

July 4th  Favorite thing about where you live.

The snow in Denver.  We have big snowfalls several times during the winter, most times it is gone in 3 days or less.

melting snow is great for building - Triceratops, unicorn, igloos, a car, witches, (and cauldron), dragons, queen Victoria, a throne, 20' long, 2 story castles... 

 

July 5 How many masks do you own. 

about 4 cloth masks, most of my wife's masks also fit me,  so we end up sharing 8.

aside from going jogging/biking (unmasked) there are few days both of us go somewhere public.
