    @AndyD said in The good news: has followed us from garage to shed to garage. Isn't it interesting the things we can't bring ourselves to part with, but also obviously have no current need of... Like my baptismal dress (from when I was 1 or 2 years old?) or my mother's wedding dress. I don't have a daughter to pass those on to, and I have nooooo idea what to do with them!

    Saw a pair several times when living near Moab. Saw another north of Buena Vista twice. They are magnificent birds.

    Get the Hamburg, get the Steinway name, have your cake and eat it too. I read (don't know if it's true) that museums started as house museums in the Netherlands. In a sense, also, what are all the stately and manorial houses in Europe if not museums? It's an extraordinarily beautiful house.

    I would seriously consider moving there if I were younger. I read the language much better than I speak it. Was surprised to get a passing grade in a college French class. Did much better in a reading only class.

    I liked the handy little trucks Toyota made. Rented a RV built on one in Alaska. Would make a handy second vehicle. Try and failing to justify buying one.

    We visited Birkheads Gardens today, the trees in fresh spring leaf. And spotted a hare in an adjacent field. [image: 1745695747266-20250426_114034-resized.jpg] [image: 1745695991717-20250426_120645-resized.jpg]

    Ha - I totally understand! Sometimes it helps me to think of those notes as where I'm aiming - the rest leads to or away from those. It gives a sense of direction for my mind...
