Good afternoon.
Well, the last week or so has been interesting. We have this invasion of Grasshoppers!

I took these pics of a neighbors home a few mornings ago.
Fortunately, there haven't been as bad here as down on the strip.
Apparently, our wet mild winter and wet spring has caused this massive explosion of these bugs.
They say they'll only be here for a couple of weeks as they're moving north. I guess they are so bad on the strip because they are drawn to the lights. The news says it's happened before. One reporter says he's seen this 3 times in the last 60 years.
Anyway, I'm still walking every morning. It was pretty warm and humid this morning. 87 and 31%. That's due to the monsoonal weather that's been trying to move into the valley. It mostly hits Arizona and Utah, but occasionally reaches us.
Who knew there would be so much going on in a desert!
Had lunch Monday at the Cheesecake Factory, treated by neighbors as thanks for getting their mail and watching their house while they were gone. I always say they don't need to do anything. That's just what neighbors do, but they always insist. It pays being a nice neighbor.   :-)
Seen just one coyote the last month or so. But that's probably enough to keep the rabbit population in check.
Don't know much else.  ....
