What a miserable morning - dull, grey & cool with constant fine drizzle. Had a text from my dad earlier on thanking me for his father's day card, which was surprising as I've still got it on the kitchen table waiting to be delivered when it dries up a bit. Turns out it was from my half brother who was on his way home from his night shift!

Time for another coffee.

Pandemic art on Cycleways I rode along today. They painted over a couple of days about 2 weeks back.

did the 12 hr round trip to visit Dad yesterday, fighting highway traffic, bad drivers, heat & humidity. he called me at 7:10 am to tell me not to come :wacko: of course I went anyway, he's 93. took him TV shopping. he was excited to get out of the house. went to 2 retail stores & he wore his mask even tho he is vaccinated. in the end, he & Mom (by phone) made some concessions & they chose a TV. I installed it & showed them how to use the remotes. unfortunately they now need 2 remotes. 1 for power on/off & volume & the cable box remote to change channels. I put notes on each remote & had them each practice from their favorite seats, multiple times. I love that they have their health and are still together. in a cpl weeks they will be celebrating their 70th wedding anniversary. I may still get a better TV ordered online & buyback the one I installed for one of our extra bedrooms. it was weird & brought back memories of retail shopping, store to store hunting for the rare prize. like the old days of hunting for specific toys for my kids for Christmas. hang in their Dad, keep hangin' tough :okay:
