How is everyone's summer going?

Idyllic, thank you.
Been dragging the trailer all over Ohio, seeking out all of the weird and wonderful roadside attractions tucked in amongst the corn.
Last weekend was Ohio caverns - the largest in Ohio. Stunning!
Also prowled a couple of antique malls and visited the highest point in Ohio!
Right now Iโm sitting on the shore of a nice lake in North Lawrence, admiring the view and looking up the birds I see.
Two weeks until my two week road trip to Mt. Rushmore with my oldest friend. Should be epic!

Whine, whine, and whine about continued eye trouble.
The meds keep me inactive and maintain a bad attitude.
Went to Princeton to see Bob's ailing brother. While there I attended a folk harp festival and workshops. Think I learned the folk harp is not for me. -

How about kanklฤs, a Baltic box zither instrument that's a popular folk instrument in Lithuania? I could pronounce you an honorary Lithuanian to make it official.

Hot, cold, wet, dry, smoky, clear... Just finished Lollapalooza weekend in the neighborhood - lots of road and park closures for locals, but it seems like was a great event even with all the mud! Some filming in the neighborhood - I look at the amount of set up and people involved guessing it is all for a few seconds or minutes of screen time.
But yes, summer in the city is a great experience!

I posted about my summer about 12 hrs ago. Lol.
I can safely say this has been and continues to be one of the best, most interesting, and satisfying summers in my life.
Honestly, the only summer I remember as being better was the summer after I graduated from high school.
I spent that summer at my parents' house. It was the first summer I didn't get a job since getting a work permit in
New York when I was 16.I didn't stress about it because I was starting at UF in the fall.
I spent my most memorable time that summer hanging out with one of the friends I had since I was 3 and his cousin.
The 3 of us explored the woods and went camping.
We were '70's kids. Lol.
It was a sublime summer.
This summer at 58 I have reached the goal of at least a humble version of the "American dream."
It's by no means the only blessing I've had in my life but it ranks up near the top.

Got new curtains for the bay window. Finally got the herb garden in. Paid someone to redesign my website, which now looks great. Practicing for two recital programs. Still riding the bike at least twice a week (not enough.). Wrapping up a new CD/vinyl release for September. Hunting for a smaller piano.
