A good rinse, and new neighbor

I practiced last night of course, a bit more than an hour. The Irons book I just got is like the exercises I set up for myself but more thought-out.

I slept in until 5:30, and when I got up it was raining heavily, and there are two junk cars, one with Bondo all down one side and one with a primer-grey hood, with a guy(?) messing around with tarps over one. They're parked across from the welding place that's a couple of doors down so they're probably OK until Monday when the welding place opens then they might have to move on.

It's weird because there are tons of places to camp out around here, yet our parking lot seems to hold a certain attraction.

If the rain lets up tomorrow, I'll try to go out and explore a bit. I've been buying what I normally use and eat, and I suppose tomorrow it may be wise to ... go out and buy more of what I use and eat. I can't go wrong with more canned butter, fish, etc.

I've been working my way through a book called "Anatomy Of Paradise" an interesting book, going through editions from 1937 to 1947. The author earnestly debunks all the stupid trains of thought that are so prevalent back in Hawaii, about how noble and great pre-contact Pacific peoples were etc.

I don't expect things to get to the stage of having no power or internet, so there's tons to read of these older books that are free online. This book would not be, but anything prior to 1920 is now copyright-free and can be read.
