Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #152: Next to get married?
Good evening Lodge. Finally home. Showered off a day's worth of grime. What a weird last few hours.
The weather report had said it would rain in the morning, be over by 9am. Which it was. Sun fought its way out and the humidity hit. The weather reports all said that if it was sunny, the chance for late afternoon pop up thunderstorms would be high. But should be over by the time the concert started. About 10am I met up with a co-worker whose husband is the communications manager for the state police. At noon today they take out the USS Constitution for its annual turn around. Full sail, etc. Glorious to see. The ship heads out to the harbor and this year, as it's the 200th anniversary of the Navy, there was a huge naval ship - not sure if it was an aircraft carrier. Anyway, the Blue Angels were going to fly over the Constitution while it was out in the harbor. The best vantage point to see this was at this State Police command center and my co-worker's husband got us in to this place. It was hot, some clouds, a little breeze, just perfect. Got some great pictures.
Went back to the Esplanade about 1:30. Walked around with the photographers. Noticed it was not as crowded. Still a great day. Hot as hell and very humid, though. About 4:30-5:00 you could see some dark clouds. I was a little worried. Close to 6pm, my contact at the production company came in our tent to let us know that they were watching the weather closely, that they were planning for several different scenarios, some extreme, some not so extreme. The sky looked like we were close to getting hit with something.
I had to meet a couple of guests at the Liberty Hotel and escort them to our tent by limo. With a State Police escort. That was cool. By then, it didn't look threatening at all. In fact, it looked like we had missed it all. I decided to check the radar. I could see a line of thunderstorms in southern New Hampshire and instead of heading southeast out to sea, it looked like it was headed due south to hit Boston. So, the concert starts. Local show broadcast starts at 8pm and ends with the 1812 Overture. Before that happened, I could see lightning. A lot of it. Bolts. Some thunder. No rain. Finally, we were told we had to evacuate. We got all of our guests back to our hospitality tent. An announcement was made to the crowd that the needed to evacuate the oval (the land in front of the stage) and everyone all along the river and were told to head out to Storrow Drive and proceed to the Storrow Tunnel till the storm passed. We were in the tent and then were told we had to leave as well. By this time, the lightning was gone. And there was no rain. And we got the all clear to return. Now, on TV they went to the recording from the show taped at the dress rehearsal from last night. They went back live across the country at about 10:10. All cleared up. All that panic and nothing. The Pops did not get to play the 1812 Overture live and Jennifer Hudson only sang one song live (on the national show - she was supposed to sing two). Show ended. I got in place for the fireworks. While waiting, I felt one drop. About three minutes later, I felt another drop. Then the fireworks started. Yay! About three minutes into the fireworks, DOWNPOUR. Like, buckets. Ran into the tent to sit it out. During the 20 minutes of fireworks, it rained and stopped about 3 times. So, so weird. Then it was all over, just like that. I get home and I notice the ground isn't wet at all, so it didn't rain here. And I live about 5 miles from where I was.
Now I have the rest of the week off. And it's supposed to be nice. I'll be relaxing by the pool tomorrow. And Friday. And probably Saturday. And not think about work for a few days.

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #152: Next to get married?
I spent the entire day in my garage cleaning it. This is the third day in a row. I saw the front corner of my garage for the first time since moving into this place. I'm not kidding at all. I think that my rate of work has suffered with the heat, but I went through two t-shirts today. Sometime around 4:00 I decided to switch my shirt as the first was completely soaked through. The second one suffered the same fate, but I didn't switch it. Regardless of all that, my mom had way too much sh** around here. The 20yd dumpster is much fuller than I anticipated, and there's still work to do. Add to that, I have a huge load of stuff the Lupus people are picking up tomorrow, too. It's insane - I guess because she technically *went* insane, but still....too much sh**.

Good Morning, Lodge!
We are doing system upgrades at work today. I get to leave early. I did have the option to either come in late or leave early. It is easier for me to leave early, because a majority of my workload has be be done in the morning.

Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #152: Next to get married?
The morning weather guesser said that the humidity would start to break over the next few days.
Morning Lodge.
Still humid here. Dewpoint is 72 or so already. Dryer air may have gotten to your hamlet though. Oh yeah I see a 54 dewpoint in Alex.

Why do I keep my car? I spend much more on maintenance these days than gas.

That's the plan for later today.
Woke up with a bit of a headache and a sore neck. Need to make coffee and eat breakfast, shake the cobwebs out and go jump in the pool.

Ankle is much better today. Still a bit sore, but the stiffness and swelling have gone down quite a bit. I am icing it a few times today anyway.

Gosh, and were there rocket ships, too, Grampa?
Howdy, Loj. Had a big home improvement success today: I got two stripped knobs from a dresser back on. Yes! Thank you! And it's only been four, five years since they first ripped off. I'll take any questions, if you're in need of advice.
