Yesterday, it would have been Mom's 110th Birthday....  Rest in Peace dear Mom.  You cared for your children right to the end. ♥♥

I did more playing with the new AI program for photos for later upload to Pixels/FAA.  I am out of books to read, and am waiting for 6 to be put on hold for me at the Library, hopefully early in the week.  I am still loving the Kathy Reichs series.

Today, I had made note of a celebration of sorts, downtown, not far away.  The temperatures had dropped drastically, and the wind had picked up so it wasn't a great day, but I made an appearance anyway.

It was an all-day indigenous celebration, the first of 5 this summer at different venues.  They kept apologizing that nothing was set up and peole were missing because everyone was on "Indian Time", lol...

But I got some cool pics that helped me pass a lot of the day with the AI program, and I will show off the capabilities here....  It takes a lot of time, but I am thrilled with the results of asking for a different background of my choice....   

It is supposed to be cloudy here tonight, so I don't know if I will manage to get the full Blue Moon at its apex at 3:34am....

Hopefully you will enjoy the pictures.  That was the day’s excitement.

 I really struggled to wake up this morning!  3 fans ran all night to cool off the apartment before today's 32C prediction, then I closed the place tight...  No need for air-conditioning which counteracts the humidity....  A method to my madness....

I was not about to spoil a lovely day just staying inside...  Bernie had mentioned that he had ridden his Gio to Hawrelak Park to the southwest.  It had been under renovation for the last 3 years so I decided to make that my destination for today.

Honestly, from my recollection, I could see zero difference from the way it was before....  Obviously just another make-work project to waste the taxpayers' money.....

It was still a nice ride, and it was nice to see all the Canada Geese, etc, but, unless you were there for picnicking, or walking, it was decidedly unexciting....

My last Amazon order arrived within 24 hours without using Prime...  I have compared prices lately on a few items between WalMart, Temu, and Amazon, ...and Amazon wins hands down for pricing, quality, and quick, free delivery.

I hope you enjoy the pictures.  That was the day’s excitement.
