Hey! Good stuff, as always. The chaos with the bikers would drive me crazy. I used to ride my bike around our development (Pleasant View Village), but the drivers either want to do 2 m.p.h. or 100 through our little streets, so we now bike exclusively on established trails, and I have to say that the folks do a good job of observing the "stay to the right rule."
I'm a big Sturgill Simpson fan. His song "Keep it Between the Lines" features a great bari sax performance (the recorded version, anyway). When David Bowie died, NPR replayed a Terry Gross interview with Bowie where he said his ambition in life was to play the bari sax in Little Richard's band. When I heard that I thought, "Huh? What were the chances that David Bowie and I would have the same life's ambition?" (Mine would have been Wilson Pickett rather than James Brown, however.)
Great photos from your visit to Normandy. So much haunting history there.
I recently had lunch with Samni, and I played golf with Tom on Easter. As time goes by, I hear less and less from the gang at MPHD, but retirement is grand.
Ha, yea unfortunately it's bikers, runners, lots of scooters. Oblivious walkers. I'm shocked we don't see more non-car accidents, truly. And this happened on a "trail" for anything but cars lol. I'm trying to remember to snap a photo of the chaos to include in a future post.
You would have loved the concert in Paris; amazing music in a such a cool setting!

Take care, my friend.

I'm glad retirement is treating you well : )
Love the updates! Sorry you lost your first attempt...so frustrating!
