The roadrunner came back a couple weeks ago. He has a girlfriend. We have been trying to get a decent picture of him but he is very wily (No, wasn't he the coyote????). I finally got a bit closer to him and this is the best I've gotten so far. Hell, it's the only one I've gotten so far. I suffer form the disease "CRS" ( "Can't Remember Squat"- cleaned up for the kiddies). The way I write this blog is to take pictures, then go through them to try to remember what we did. It seems to work, though I wouldn't remember if it didn't. Budgetboater cut some holes for more ports. Those of you that have seen my house, know that I like windows, so any light I can let in is good. Budge also started glassing the tumblehomes. This is a critical area, so w used some doubled up glass: woven and chopped strand sewn together. We played again with a 4 inch long sweep 90 degree PVC elbows (cheaper, on the left). I like the new one better, so I committed to getting a bunch......... Bought a bunch, started designing dorade boxes. Tweaking in the whimsy is the difficult part. Dam whimsy tweaking! Ben???? More bowelship language................. There be Dragons! On Friday we were visited by a 4 foot ratsnake. Big sucker, not a pit viper, so good to have around (run, mousies). I painted the ultra complex center cabin ladders. They are not necessarily to plans, but no one that builds a Wharram design seems to follow the plans (why do we even buy them?). My plans look like the were drawn on napkins in a Chinese restaurant useing chopsticks as a straightedge. Ben and I zipped into town today and scored a dozen tamales someone was selling on the road from the back of an older SUV. No pictures, they're gone! Mmmmmmmmmm truck tamales, ahhhhhhh Texas. Warner brothers, through sheer happenstance, assembled a team that produced works of perfection. Direction by Freitz Freleng, Chuck Jones, and Tex Avery, et al., Voices by Mel Blanc (wow, all the voices!) and music by Carl stalling. Yes this stuff was composed!!! So, sit back and listen and smile. Yes, this was a Roadrunner cartoon. Score performed by the Fireworks Ensemble.
