FoY - Friday Afternoon

It’s been a heavy schedule so far. After getting up and having coffee I walked the dog to the small dog park.  Madigan met Pugsley and naturally I forget the name of Pugsley’s mommy.  Then Gilbert arrived with Ellie May and went off to bring Joey. Ginger came too. They all have humans but I seem only able to remember the dogs names.  Joey is the sweetest weiner dog.  Ginger was an energetic cutie who got Madigan to chase her.
Personally I had a profound conversation about dog poop with one of the mom’s. 
Then the wind picked up and I thought we’d had enough and I’d like to check my Starlink antennae. I’ve had it on a tripod rather than the ladder mount. I think I should improve the arrangement but the wind is forecast to die down this afternoon then all week.  I brought it in last night.
It’s been cool only 65 degrees but 80 degrees later in the week.
I had a nap when I got home.  After that I walked over the the shower and Lobster Pot Hotsprings.  There I talked to a farmer from northern Washington and a Naval couple from San Diego.  I told my story of notifying the vessel at night that popped up on my radar. They acknowledged me then disappeared to pop up behind me. Turned out it was an American submarine.  
Now I’m home and have had a shower.   I’d planned to go to Bombay beach but there’s an online meeting at 1 and it’s 1240.  I could go after the meeting.  I’d still have between 2 and 5 when it’s dark. I wanted him to be able to run on the beach and for myself to stop in at the Bombay Beach coffee shop.
I miss Laura because she helped with my scheduling.  Hard questions like should I have porridge or eggs for breakfast, she’s great at.
Barb is celebrating her 40 year birthday today. Amazing!
