#amostunusualday 1948 is my year of birth. That year a movie came out -"A Date With Judy." The theme song was "It's A Most Unusual Day!" This song describes my day yesterday. I got plenty of rest. I had a wonderful swim with some friends. Elena and I went to a charming restaurant in Half Moon Bay named Mezza Luna. The sun shone brightly. There was not a cloud in the sky. Elena and I had a marvelous time at the restaurant with great food and great wine. We took home a pepperoni pizza for the evening. I went to Table Wine Company for a wine tasting of French wines. One of our readers, Andy Lie, and his wife Paige were there. I ran into another dear old friend whom I had not seen in a while-Aaron Hattangadi. When I returned home Elena was at high energy and hard at work. She took all the panels for the shed out of the boxes. She hauled them up to the backyard.
I once penned a poem about a small Mexican town named, believe it or not, Tequila. It ended with these words:
"If I had to die now, at least I would die very happy."
We all need days like this!

“Live joyfully with the wife whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun. Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.”
‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭9:9-10‬ ‭KJV‬‬

When I'm enjoying the simple pleasures of life like drinking French wine in Napa valley hob knobbing with off tour celebrities, I like to ask myself. "I wonder what the poor people are doing today?"

Patnet, OBEL buffer for guitar and home-made shielding, stuff like that. :-)

Hey that shielding turned out to be a functional work of art within its self.

It was more craft copper sheeting, pretty heavy gauge stuff compared to the tape and foils they sell for that purpose.
I soldered every seam and split and pressed it in every crevice. It stays in place by the weight and the forces of being pressed into place in the tight corners, of it alone.
The pickguard also helps keep it in place.
