We all have opinions. With some exception, we share them with others. What do you think of that restaurant, or car, or vacation destination, or book, or movie, or… ? Endless possibilities. And given human nature, the range of opinions runs full spectrum.

Campers make their own fun. Today, the spectators gathered for multiple loads of laundry. Managed to spend the whole morning, handing out timely advice, drinking coffee cooled by strong breezes and wait for it. Charging various devices.

In IT, we live with acronyms. No need to amaze you with a virtual bowl of alphabet soup. However, this evening I had crossover communication during supper.

“Now we’re cooking with gas!”. Had a university prof that used this expression. I had no direct frame of reference, but it sounded like a good idea. Filed it, forgot it, until now.

Note to anyone tying to sell (me) something; don’t keep me guessing about picky little details. Like price, or availability. Unless you have a monopoly, where you probably don’t need me, the risk remains that I will check out the competitor’s offering.

Spent most of today with my eyes closed. Not asleep; that would be too easy. More like a practiced squint. Keeping the sun out of the brain.

Life in our makeshift village goes on. With the summer passing quickly, more familiar faces each morning. Conversations pick up where they left off the year before; we have the back stories already learned. At least, the “for public release” version. Who knows how the folk live once the campground has faded from the rear view mirror. Little matter. The summer version fits our lightweight roles.

Given the short duration of my extended family’s visit, we decided to trade some quality campground time for the other side. Cottage time. At least an afternoon worth. Pack the car with us, head west and see how the other half live.

Too much time in the car with a dog leads to irrational behavior. Not just a headline from a grocery checkout tabloid. I’m starting to wish the hound had more than two or three needs, or that he would sing along with the radio (some dogs do, I’ve been told).
