Observer
The Smoke In The Boys’ Room
The smoke and haze aren’t just in the Boys’ lavatories. According to today’s Wall Street Journal:
Skies were hazy again from Minnesota to Maine, as forecasters said people should limit time outside. In New York, the unhealthy level surpassed those of some of the most polluted cities on Earth.
I won’t be working in my garden today and I’ll wear a mask when I do venture outside.
You won’t be hearing any Fortune 500 CEOs bellowing for a few days about how bad for business it is when people want to work from home. I’m sure they can read the EPA’s AirNow website as well as anyone and it is not pretty for anyone who has to venture outside, even for a commute.

Self Portrait 4th Floor
I had lunch today at the university club
I met my dad and brother for lunch
I was early so I went to the library on the 4th floor and sat with a book about Kierkegaard written in German - I thought there would be pictures but there wasn't and when the guy turned to me and said my dad was on the 7th floor....I stood up and out the window I heard Kierkegaard say that Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards and I shot this looking across 5th ave with the hope of me in the arched window on the left.
Shot looking east across 5th ave just north of 54th street.

100th Anniversary Celebration Events
Happy 100th RHS Bands! You sounded amazing! Reposted from @ridgewoodhsband It was great to be back Under the Stars to perform our annual Tunes in June concert for the opening of the 65th year of the Kasschau.

Rock Hound
How can this be a rock? Crazy lace agate is only found in areas of northern Mexico. The three crazy lace pendants that I had in my Etsy shop sold quickly after I opened; and they sold even though I didn’t find the stone and included that in the description. So, on my way back from the Soo a few weeks ago I stopped at Kingsley North lapidary shop in Norway, MI and bought a few pounds of raw crazy lace agate. After hammering and chiseling away at the raw stone, and then doing the final cutting and shaping on the tile saw, I’m ending up with some nice pieces. If these polish up as nicely as my previous ones did, they should end up being beauties.
