Got an e-mail from my HS Class Secretary today, reminding me that I hadn't RSVP'd for my 50th Class Reunion in Jene.

My first thought was Frank and 8-tracks we listened to in his truck at the end of Ghost Road.

"One of These NIghts" was our shared, favorite album, and we both loved this song.

No way I'm going, but I have many, many good memories of that time.

I lived an N-Judah ride away for almost 20 years but never went to the beach, except to photograph models on Baker and Tennessee Valley in Marin. 🤷♂️

Haven't seen or smelled the ocean going on 20 years. Miss terribly. 🥹

A very lazy Sunday. Enjoying coffee on the porch, hanging out with #CharleneTheCat. ❤️

"When you believe in things you don't understand, you suffer."

In 1974, Steve Wonder won the AMA for "Best Soul/R&B Single" and performed the song at the ceremony.

Stevie live is extra powerful!

Y'all, I've been such a whiny knob! Here I am, in one of the most beautiful places in the world, with a lovely cabin on a mountain, within spitting distance of a vast National Park and two rivers, nice people, enough to eat, and was adopted by an amazing cat at Thanksgiving.

Yet, I've complained about this and that. Mostly the weather, but also what I saw as a lack of opportunities to take pictures. And other stuff. Pffft. Mine was a mild Winter compared to many, many here, and y'all seemed to take it in stride and with good humour.

Got out of the cabin today, and saw some naturey stuff—Spring in bloom— and had a good cry. Revived. Thankful. ❤️

That used to be such a busy block, Bob! I remember slices at Blondie's in particular.

What's in the old Woolworth's/Gap building? Or is that 1 Powell?

On my way home in a few. Waiting for a prescription and to check out. Clean bill of health with the advice to stay away from the news of the day. Both my shrink and doctor prescribed that 10 years ago.

Cabin owner's handyperson came to clean and connect the A/C. Took my Rx antihistamine, breathing easier, feeling relaxed and can breathe.

Google/YT down temporarily for me, but no widespread outages reported @ 1:00 AM US ET.
