Some of our Flowers


Shucks! Some deer slipped into our yard a day or so ago and ate the pretty calibrachoa and sweet alyssums in my urns. The deer repellent must have lost its punch. 😥Here's how the urns looked about a month ago. I guess it's time now to get some mums.


Beatles Tribute Concert


In early August Glenn and I drove up to Indy to enjoy the Indiana State Fair and attend a concert by Hard Day's Night. This was a celebration of the 60th anniversary of a concert given by The Beatles at the same state fairgrounds back in 1964. Our concert was lots of fun and the band sounded authentic. I believe they followed the same playlist as the original concert. Lots of Boomers grooving to the sounds!





Thank you wonderful anonymous donor for the 200 Euros donation! Much much appreciated! tromsite.com/donate/

Indianapolis Indians baseball game


We enjoyed spending this past Saturday in Indy with Natalie chilling at a coffee shop, grabbing calzones for dinner and then watching the Indianapolis Indians, a Triple A club of the Pittsburgh Pirates, at Victory Field. Seger joined us at the ballpark. When we arrived, the Indians and the Louisville Bats were completing a game postponed from the night before because of weather. After the Indians won it in extra innings 7-6(?), that night's game was played. Unfortunately, the Indians seems "played out" as they didn't score a single run in the second game and lost 1-6(?).

Hi Natalie and Seger!
Did you keep score like Dad taught us, with a pencil ad a program?


Trip to SW Wisconsin


A few weeks ago Glenn and I drove to the Driftless region of Wisconsin to spend a weekend with Nathan, who had driven over from Minneapolis. On Saturday we kayaked, hiked and picnicked at Governor Dodge State Park and on Sunday we toured Frank Lloyd Wright's home, Taliesin East. (Sorry, I only have photos from Saturday.)

Interesting that Wisconsin has a region named Driftless. I'll have to look it up to see what it means.

It looks like you had a wonderful time with Nathan! Wisconsin has such beautiful lakes :-)

@Cobie I can't see the last 2 photos. Maybe it's a permission issue -- the photos must have a permission setting of "Public" to be seen, I think.

Interesting!

Never covered by ice during the last ice age, the [Driftless] area lacks the characteristic glacial deposits known as drift.


That is from Wikipedia

@Cobie I logged in as you and found that the last 2 photos had the wrong permission setting. They were visible only to you ("private"), so I made them visible to everyone ("public").


If governments would include LASIK surgeries in their national health system, we would see a lot of reduction in wasted plastic, glass, and fuel consumed because millions and millions of people would not need to wear glasses. The procedure would be fast and kinda automated.

Did US Government Mistakenly Transfer $239M to Taliban?


We investigated a popular rumor claiming the U.S. Department of State accidentally provided the Taliban with hundreds of millions of dollars in 2022.
