The days are so nice and long now. It was light out when I got up at 0630 and it was still light at 9 PM. The temperature got to 70 this afternoon. After my exercises I read the DFP. They dedicated most of the issue to Detroit's new mayor, Dave Bing. Mayor Bing is a successful business man and former Piston basketball star. I don't know if he has the stomach for Detroit politics.
After lunch I had to do some chores around the house. One chore was created by clumsy me. I dropped a small container down the sink. The container became lodged in the drain. I had to remove the drain and recover the container. The operation was successful.
For relaxation I loaded up the kayak and headed for Reed's Lake. The parking lot was full so I headed for the Grand River at Ada. The river was so high I could not get my kayak in the water so I ended up at Murray Lake. The lake is fully developed with nice sand beaches and some really expensive homes. I saw 2 muskrats, many turtles and a crane eating a large fish.
This evening, like most Thursday evenings, Nancy and I had dinner at Great Lakes Shipping. They did not have their outside dining set up, but I expect next week we can eat outside. Eating outside is one of the pleasures of summer.
