Bringing it all back home!
Leo Carroll ended up back in Alhambra.
Prince (the artist) ended up back in Minneapolis, but he wasn't doing brake jobs.
The othe Leo? Don't even know where he started out, let alone where he ended up. I guess it doesn't matter when you have your own beach.

She seems to be responsive, so I'm going with her "hearing is fine", though I am not licensed to make formal diagnoses.

Na na na na, na na na na, na na na na na
[Click to View YouTube Video]Take me with you on a whirling ship
On an ocean voyage, or a long long trip
I've got to get away
It should be today
Earth between my toes
And flowers in my hair
I'll go where it goes
So, please take me there
And the band will play Waltzing Matilda for the hicks
And I will keep time with Popsicle sticks
While bringing it all back home

Thanky.

This morning, EARLY, I went up to the rooftop and played around with the camera and no tripod. The results sucked.
I went back to the Mouse House and took a look, selecting the ones with the best light settings, then went BACK AGAIN, packing the tripod and camera.
MUCH BETTER!
Then I down-loaded the pics, had breakfast, and climbed up to the roof AGAIN. This time I went all the way up to the base of the sign framework and sat on the sloping pantiles, not eager to trust them with my weight with no belay. Who knows how well these old things are being held in place? I perched there a good fifteen minutes, my feet braced against the top of the ladder.
That was a pretty dicey thing, getting over the last rung--I took my time.
So then I did the ladder again this evening, but only to the roof. I got there just as the sun set. Then I went over to the other side of the roof and the moon came up at about 7:40. It was RIGHT DEAD OVER SHUTEYE, pretty much where I figured it would appear.
It's usually a shock when it does finally rise. You aren't quite mentally ready.
