Ok so… waiting to board a flight at SLC airport. I have never seen it this dead. I guess this is what cratering foreign tourism looks like.

Old Man Workout Motivation Music 🎼Ok so, in college my fencing instructor would take over the PA system at the fieldhouse and play music (loudly) to help us develop a rhythm to our parry-reposte. This was the song she used to teach us the #4 parry. Excellent for lifts.

Ok so, I find the 300 character limit too confining for my posts. And no editing feature makes my writing here problematic. However, I absolutely love the muting features. Therefore, I’ll keep this primarily for news gathering but my microblogging will stay with FB. Every other social media is ☠️.

Old Man Workout Motivation Music 🎼 I’ve been listening to a lot of ska these last couple weeks. It has a reggae beat, like a heartbeat, that really helps me focus on my lifting movement. This song was originally by Sublime but I love this cover done in a hotel room. m.youtube.com/watch?v=UV2l...

Pool Update: T+40:00. Well the green haze is now a whitish haze. That means the algae is dead and we are left with a pool full of microscopic algae bones. The next step is to add this blue stuff that will coagulate the bones and help the filter skim all that out. Surface temp is 73 degrees F.
