Lee: I just can't imagine how the spectators sat or stood through the EXTREME INTENSE HEAT and SUNSHINE today at those preliminary races. Just something I could never make it through.
I bet you can hear the cars on the Windsor side of the water Lee. Like directly across from the Renaissance bldg. I heard that because of all the detours downtown that folks are using the Ambassador Bridge and the BACK UP WAIT TIME is OVER 1 hour to cross it. Can you even imagine having to wait in a line that long. Even with A/C on it wouldn't do it for me.
Art spent hours on that dumb box in the ground with the sprinkler connectors. He's used every Electrical trick he knew and it just didn't work. So tomorrow morning he's taking back the part he bought and talking to the nice people at the exclusive sprinkler parts shop.
He's NOT GOING BIKING because of the unbelievable HEAT. Now that's a first for Artie.
Pat: Sure hope that Bert isn't trying to do too many errands and running around TOO SOON. Hope he is resting in between the shopping runs.
Good luck with any hurricanes you Florida folks.
It was not quite like these pictures, but close.
The instructor holds your arm, leg or shoulders and you do resistant pushes. Some against the table you are lying on and some on the instructors shoulder or hand. It was actually very nice to know I could stretch as and push so much resistance as I did. I would LOVE to do this 2 times a week...... BUT.....
it's just too expensive.
$$$! 4 sessions of Stretches' -- 25 minute each Stretches would be $159 a month. And you have to use up the 4 sessions in one month. Double that to round out the month of going 2 times each week and you're looking at $318.00 CRAZY.
4 sessions of 50 Minute stretches each would be $269 a month.
They have 8 - 25 minute sessions per month too and of course the price goes up accordingly.
This is WAY OUT OF MY Budget.
I can go to Life Time Gym for FREE with Art's Ford insurance benefits. I really should just do that one of these days. I use to go for awhile, but then COVID hit and first they closed the place down and then there were masks required and then they said no masks and you all know how I feel about even going to the grocery store without a mask on. I'll have to just check it out one day in the middle of WINTER. Too HOT to do exercises even if the place has A/C.
So that's my STRETCHES story folks. DUH! EXPENSIVE.
By the way, I did manage to buy the new deck rug at Lowe's. Saved $20.80 cents with Art's military discount. Every little bit helps.
Hopefully, we might get it unrolled sometime after the SPRINKLERS ever get fixed. I'm not pushing my luck. It's not important enough to get done ASAP.
I was happy that my Corsair's seat fold down and the 10 foot long roll fit perfectly up to the front seat. Nice of the man to put it in the car for me.
