Air Travel - Flying the Friendly Skies
Yeah, the diamond market is highly rigged. Diamonds are fairly common, found nearly all over the world, including the USA. It was a massive marketing job done by De Beers, aided by Hollywood.

Stars, Including the Earth's Sun
Nice! I've seen the northern lights before, in Alaska and Norway. These did not match the ones in Alaska, but were better than the ones in Norway, and I was really surprised at just how nice these were. I was not expecting much, and they far exceeded my expectations. We just went across the street t...

Weather Alerts
Just had my first experience with a tornado. It's been storming for two days (cleared enough for northern lights sighting last night). Got my first warning on my watch, closely followed on other devices. Local news was on, so they covered it moment by moment until it was over. Heavy rain, hail above...

And a garden maze.

I'm having a vague recollection there may have been an auto museum there.

I took photos of the green and pink lights. I have a northern lights photo app that I put on my phone when we were going to Iceland in the winter, but my photos taken on the newest Apple 15 pro are just as good. Not as good as I've seen in Alaska, but not bad for this far south. And I caught some cu...

I was on a ship out in the Atlantic when this also happened about five years ago. I think it was a teenager who had to be airlifted to Norfolk. The rescue was visible on the ship's camera. We had our granddaughter with us, so we didn't watch, but from what we heard, it was fascinating to watch.

Yeah, I can remember when I felt sorry for her. That didn't last long. She is a birther and a grifter. If she really wanted to keep her son out of the mess, she could have left.

Heading out of the country in two weeks, so got the vaccine that was recommended a few months ago. Moderna again. So far, my arm isn't even sore, so I have to keep reminding myself that I got it. I hope it stays that way.
