Just when we thought it was over, "Elden" returned, tapping, smearing, touching up. I have no idea what's going on on my steps.

Meanwhile, Helaine and Steffie are leaving in a few minutes to see the first of two Rick Springfield concerts, this one in Westbury, NY. They are taking my Fuji S602z camera. I gave Helaine and Steffie some very brief lessons, but we'll see. With a camera like this, it's possible to take incredibly great shots... or touch a button and prevent you from shooting anything usable.

My friend Steve told me his DSL installation kit has arrived. I'll probably help getting everything running. I've been tech support to most of the people I know, except the others I know who also do tech support. Helaine figures when I retire I'll go door-to-door fixing computers and support myself that way. Why not? I enjoy doing it.

I forecast increasing clouds today... which have not yet arrived. I hate waiting. It's weird having to have the limited perspective of hoping for deteriorating conditions just because I forecast them.
