Mid-weekend update

Last night as we were about to go into a restaurant we heard an announcement over the city public address/civil defense/storm warning system. The July 4th fireworks were being postponed. While the sky did not look promising, that was not the reason. The pyrotechnics had not yet arrived from the vendor. Whoops.

There were fireworks, though. The sky wasn't promising nice clear weather. It was was threatening a storm, and delivered. Much arcin' and a-sparkin' through the night.

Am finally finishing up the scanning of the negatives from Osceola. That's the first step. Next I get to do some graphic editing & such and see what the GIMP can do. Or rather, what I can get the GIMP to do, clunky interface and all. (Many little windows to wade through for one program.. not what I think of as a clean design.)

Did go to Sioux Falls. Picked up LT 104 (Yes, Michael, I know I haven't finished 103 yet). Had a nice lunch at Nap's. New item, blackened salmon... done just right. Yum! Also, listened to XM radio on the way there and back. It's weird to hear Jack Webb outside his Dragnet role. Why? Jack Webb.. with emotion. Jarring.

And there's this...
