What to do aside from worry... Dark, two seasons, on Netflix. In German with subtitles, but so worth the extra attention. The best elaborately plotted scifi series I've seen since Fringe.

| Really enjoyed Dark. I just binged Giri/Haji last weekend, highly recommended. Nice blend of East meets West with a great ending. |

My 15 year old daughter did some practice driving in a large cemetery today, so I had them drop me off to geek out on dates. Too many folks were gathered in the real old grave stones, so i just wandered around the the edge of the 1800's ones. I know 1800's isn't that old when it comes to graveyards- but this is Southern California. https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsvM" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsvM" rel="nofollow - fh1 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsup" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsup" rel="nofollow - fh2 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsha" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsha" rel="nofollow - fh3 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickras seen through my amber sunglasses https://flic.kr/p/2iGxUgH" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iGxUgH" rel="nofollow - fh4 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickrbees in the clover https://flic.kr/p/2iGvb6r" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iGvb6r" rel="nofollow - fh10 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iGvbbw" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iGvbbw" rel="nofollow - fh5 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iGxUjo" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iGxUjo" rel="nofollow - fh6 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsoT" rel="nofollow"> https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsoT" rel="nofollow - fh7 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickrnot many see 100- I found 3 https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsMP" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iGzsMP" rel="nofollow - hj1 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iGvbBB" rel="nofollow"> https://flic.kr/p/2iGvbBB" rel="nofollow - hj2 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iGvbzs" rel="nofollow"> https://flic.kr/p/2iGvbzs" rel="nofollow - hj3 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on FlickrAfter the practice drive, we took the kids up to Holy Jim canyon- Some other folks had the same idea. |

I had to look up jelly roll Morton- I was right down the street from the Orange circle- Fairhaven cemetery. Jelly roll is buried in LA according to what I read. |

I shouldn't have jumped to that conclusion, Samsome. Apparently the style of grave marker seen in your photos is more common that I assumed.

Out to Land's End in the afternoon- pretty busy, but mosyty people observed Social Distancing, and only a few face masks.    In the evening, Tiger King! Highly recommend. Now whisky and Fallout 4. |

Man, Fallout 4 just didn't do it for me the way 3 and New Vegas did. I don't think I ever ended up finishing the main story because it didn't really grab my attention like the 3 and NV. To me New Vegas is one of the best games of all time. The story, characters, complete blank slate giving you free rein to take the plot in whatever direction you want topped with solid fun gameplay. I've probably played through that campaign 3 times for the different endings.

Broark- I’ve heard that a lot, seems to be a common critique of 4 that it is more rigid than NV and 3, and I agree, your choices don’t seem to make tons of difference to your play though plot wise except where the radioactive hole ends up on the map. For me the graphics of 4 and the addictive build function make 4 a classic and one of my most played through games of all time, after resident evils 1-4. But the shelter in place is long, so maybe it’s a good time to stack it up against the previous 2 and see how they compare again...

| speaking of resident evil, the RE3 remake is set to launch April 4- still inside the shelter in place, probably well inside it, could it be the best selling RE game of all time, with that unforeseen help? |

In some ways our productivity seems to have ramped up-in all those areas that usually get short changed due to work and social obligations. I’m just approaching the finish line on my apartment getting repainted, and have done a lot of reorganizing and starting smaller projects around the house that I’ve not had time for for years. Next week I’ll try to organize my clothes and sort my jeans- after that my pots and pans cabinet will be fearing the sound of my approaching footsteps. Sansome- why do the cocoons get hung on string?

| That’s how you find them in the wild- hanging from something- we usually have a few hanging from the window sills outside. |

This is my first day off work in 2 1/2 weeks, 2 weeks ago i came home from work to find the Ladies of the house- took one of my projects off my plate. The scrap yard was foraged for items that would act as garden walls....I like what they came up with, much better than what I was going to do. https://flic.kr/p/2iNxAdK" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNxAdK" rel="nofollow - gf by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3Ky" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3Ky" rel="nofollow - gf1 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iNAjsJ" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNAjsJ" rel="nofollow - gf4 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on FlickrA 60's thrift store pottery bird i found years ago https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3UB" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3UB" rel="nofollow - gf5 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on FlickrOur 1 hen is back in production https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3ui" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3ui" rel="nofollow - gf10 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on FlickrMany have since emerged. https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3rH" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3rH" rel="nofollow - gf11 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickrwarming Nonriveted's work chair https://flic.kr/p/2iNxzVR" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNxzVR" rel="nofollow - gf12 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on FlickrJim and I not practicing social distancing  Local neighborhood hike with the kids-dog and RC cars https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3kA" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNC3kA" rel="nofollow - gf21 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iNAiRP" rel="nofollow"> https://flic.kr/p/2iNAiRP" rel="nofollow - gf19 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iNxzJo" rel="nofollow"> https://flic.kr/p/2iNxzJo" rel="nofollow - gf16 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iNAiKB" rel="nofollow"> https://flic.kr/p/2iNAiKB" rel="nofollow - gf15 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iNxzLx" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNxzLx" rel="nofollow - gf17 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on FlickrTried hand pollinating the cherry blossom's the other day- The bees have too many other flowers to visit, so our cherry tree's are being ignored https://flic.kr/p/2iNAiHH" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNAiHH" rel="nofollow - gf14 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on Flickr https://flic.kr/p/2iNxzRT" rel="nofollow">  https://flic.kr/p/2iNxzRT" rel="nofollow - gf20 by https://www.flickr.com/photos/52982610@N06/" rel="nofollow - bottleswest , on FlickrStanding in line the other day. |

The macrame pant holder with attached cocoons is kind of extra. I know of several stores in SF that would sell those for a small fortune.

I’m always looking for dropped $$, during the 19 lockdown- business is booming. I would say, dropped change is up 30-40 percent...found a ten spot a month back. Anyone else here with this hobby? |
