Rant: Due to some chronic but not severe health problems, lost my pilot's license medical qualification a few years ago and have not been able to personally fly an airplane for quite some time.

My daughter got home safely yesterday after a great trip to Florida.

Durango is finally getting some decent summer rain for the first time in 5 years. My vegetable garden is green and very happy, so we'll have fresh peas and salad tonight.

Vacation starts Monday. We're supposed to camp and hike for 6 days on the Colorado Trail. Our plans may get rained out, but I still won't rant because we need the rain so much.

Rant: Temperature has been 90+ degrees all week and my central air conditioning unit is broken. Service man says the unit is 25 years old and they may not be able to get the part it needs, in which case I will have to buy a complete new unit.
Rave: They found a part and are couriering it today. With any luck it should be installed tomorrow just in time for the cold front that's rolling in.
Rave: We don't have a millipede infestation.
