I forgot to give the electric plug to the guy who bought my old Prius, so I dropped it off for him.
A cat had kittens in our backyard.
Three of them went someone. We're not sure if she moved them or what, but this was the only one left, and she wasn't taking care of him. He was just getting weaker and weaker.
Ogii didn't like that, so she decided to take him to a friend of hers. She made him a nice warm box.
And put him in it.
He seems OK.
Although he tried to escape on the drive.
Checking him out.
And feeding him.
A video of the kitten's journey. He's certainly stronger at the end.
At the airport in San Jose. Thankfully the line is very short.
Instead of handing out snacks on the plane, they just have a bucket of snacks for you to grab your own while boarding.
Lots of clouds.
Ogii playing poker.
She flopped a full house.
Except the other guy turned a straight flush. I don't know about that.
We watched Alita.
That would be a nice life, especially with a house on your own private island.
A mosaic on the bathroom wall at MSP.
A description of it.
I was really excited to eat at Dairy Queen, but it's being renovated.
So we ate at Twins Grill instead.

Nice and peaceful and away from the children.

What did the boys find?
Some frogs.
Hopping around.
If you kiss it, it will become a prince.
We raced out to this float. I forgot how tiring swimming was; I almost didn't make it at the end. Dumb Monica being all fast.
Frogs and a float.
The army practicing building bridges.
Tubing time.
Here we go.
Where did Ron go?
Flying off. But, like a good brother, he brought me some sunglasses when he came back.
We look much cooler now.
Jumping off.
Taking the tube in.
Up front watching for other boats.
Time for skiing.
Mick ready to go.
On his way.
And he's up.
On one ski.
My turn.
Getting there.
One ski.
Were the jetskiers being helpful to let us know where the ski was or trying to steal it? We'll never know.
Touching the water.
Out to the side and cutting in.
Jumping.
And the other way.

S'mores time.
Everyone enjoying the evening.
Nice big Sinclair dinosaur.
Mom making breakfast.
A big wind came up and tried to take away the canopy.
It brought this cloud with it.
Getting closer.
Above us.
And moving away.
Once it passed, the wind died down, too. Weird weather.
We don't need a tripod.
Just some duct tape.
Picture time.
Everybody smile.
The kids on Mick's motorcycle.
Time for rides.
Don't forget your helmet.
He looks happy.
Very excited.
There he goes.

Good to always wear a helmet.

Uh oh, they're being held up by bubble-hand-waving kids.
Get her!

What are you going to do about it?
Run away, that's what.
