It rained again on Sunday and it rained today. Good thing I had finished picking up some leaves before it started to rain.......

I like the sound of rain but I hate driving in rain.

I know what you mean. Three years ago on our drive down to Florida to Disney World....we had rain all through Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida. We thought we were going to have to do the park in the rain, but fortunately it stopped the day we got there! We couldn't see the car in front of us except for the tail lights...it was awful and scary, too.

We have a sunroom with a glass roof....and the rain is really loud in that room. Sometimes it is nice to hear it....after a while it is tiring.

I've had to pull over when it rains too much, I don't like not being able to see the car in front of me. My partner will drive through any weather and when I am a passenger I put my seat way back and close my eyes, and get laughed at cuz I'm skeeered we're gonna die

Good Morning, Cappuccinistis of the world,

as of Friday, June 26th, my daughter is on vacation with me for three weeks and so I am cramming lots of appointments into this week, which is why I am barely on. We will be vacationing right here, where I live, with trips to Fantasialand, Disneyland Paris, an overnighter to an observatorium in the Eiffel part of Germany, all sorts of cool stuff. Oh, and swimming, lots and lots and lots of swimming.

Vacation time!!!

I can't wait. So, if I am gone for a number of days, just know that my little princess is wearing papa out with all sorts of cool things that kids love to do on vacation.

FACEBOOK - LIVE!

Presently, I am trying to make friends outside of Facebook while applying the same principles.

Therefore every day, I go down to the street and tell those passing by what I have eaten, how I feel, what I have done the night before, and what I will do today. I give them pictures of my spouse, my daughter, my dog and me gardening and spending time in my pool. I also listen to their conversations and I tell them I love them.

And it works! I already have 3 people following me - 2 police officers and a psychiatrist!

It does. I walk near a river and about a month ago I went for a walk, it was overcast and in the middle of my walk it began to rain, I was quite far from home by then so I just walked in the rain. It was just like you said hushed and mystical.

I was there on honeymoon with my then-wife in August of 2002. We spent two days there and loved it.

Here are some Paris pics from 2002:

I'll also be in Paris coming up in October for a nice professional event, so I'll be there a couple of times this year.

Hope you enjoyed the pics.

Hello, Yurt and a hearty welcome to you in the Cappuccino Corral!

Here, everyone is welcomed with the same openness and friendliess. So, I'm glad you are here.

And thank you for the kind wishes vis-a-vis the upcoming vacation time with my daughter.

As far as pics go, I may publish some pics of events, but any present-time pics without faces, because experience has taught me that not all members of USMB are of good will and some have misused and abused personal pics that members have published. Pics of Gracie's beloved pets come to mind. I am in no way referring to you at all, so please do not misinterpret that statement. But I am more careful these days.

However, in the posting above this one (should be no. 3324) you will see some pics from Paris from 2002.

Knowing how much my little one loves to swim, I reckon that at least 9 of 20 days, we will be somewhere swimming, and swimming with my daughter is an all-day event, like, from 10 to 21 hours. The swimming backpack is always packed and ready to go.

In terms of weather, this is coldest June I can ever remember, with the most rain and storms. But German weather experts are saying that by next week, we will be up to a warm 28 C (82.4 F). By the middle of July it will hit 39 C and above (102 F and above). So, the coolest June I can remember is about to turn into the hottest July ever. Groan.

That gets a 10 on the Slothroppy scale of friendliness.

Those are great photos Stat. Of course it's understood why you wouldn't post photos of your little girl or family, or even yourself. I don't do that for the same reason. Like I said before my family had a memorial website of my sister with photos of her and our and someone actually stole some of her pictures and posted them on an arab website. So I completely understand why you will keep modern photos private.

If you get any good photos of the surroundings without people in them post them up I like photos.

YOU look great in the ones you did post. Have a happy vacation.

Why, thanks. Little Miss Statalina just decided that she wants to do a 25 K bike-tour with Papa as well. We've done 15 K tours, but for her, 25 K will be a lot.

I am really, really looking forward to this vacation in a big way. Every year, these are the 3 most fulfilling weeks of the year for me.
