My iPhone is a Brit

I've changed the grammar to British English and it's very amusing (to me, anyway.)  My list of "Favourites" wasn't such a surprise.  Autocorrects from color to colour also not so surprising. Yesterday's surprise--sending a text that said my apartment had a strange "odour".  Who knew?

I splurged a tiny splurge yesterday and ordered Saltwater Sandals. I've been debating this purchase for a while, and bit the moderately priced bullet yesterday.  Woo hoo!

Yesterday was the first real beach day of the summer.  The two of us had gone once, in late spring, but it wasn't all that warm.  It was in the mid 70s yesterday, but was so windy we packed it up after 2 hours to avoid getting further sandblasted and spent the rest of the afternoon with our feet in a 7 year old's wading pool. Not too shabby.

Going to try a new run today at Tennant Lake Park...haven't been there yet but we bought the state park pass this year, so I'm going to get my money's worth!  We'll see how it goes.

Later today, we're going to go see a Bellingham United game. It's cheap, it's sunny, we're going to give it a shot.  It could be mediocre at best. But again, it's sunny!

Best Wednesday Ever

And it's only 10:30.  Woke up late, drank coffee from my chair in the sun in the backyard, getting ready to go for a hike.  Waaaay better than my usual Wednesdays.

Here's some tidbits of life lately.  Enjoy as you like.

Was texted this picture this morning of my parents "cleaning" their shed. These were all in it. Yes, this is a normal sized, garden-variety shed.  Oh, parents.

Getting up early has its perks.

Sometimes it really blows to live near the Canadian border.  One of those times definitely is getting gas on the way to work.

A triple.  Score.

Summer has officially begun.  Heck yes.

Went to peek in an awesome house.  Discovered it was occupied.  Oops!

One of the annoyances of working in a small town = tractors on my commute.  Turns 10 minutes into 20 minutes for a trip to work.  

There's this old dog.  And her bone that looks like a stogey. I like her.

There's this trim cat.  And his trim belly. I like him, too.
