So about a year ago, the airport in Rhody changed the name from TF Green Airport to the too big name of Rhode Island T.F. Green International Airport. Why? I have no idea. Maybe it's something to do and waste money on It's not like there are any international flights here though we did have Norwegian for a little while before the pandemic. Like are people getting confused what state they are flying into?

It's like Boston Logan International instead of just Logan. Did they have people fly in and be like I thought I was flying into NYC?

The worst is Manchester Airport in NH changing their name to Manchester-Boston Regional Airport....which is 60 miles away from Boston.

From WPRI Providence:

TF Green Airport officially changes its name

Rhode Island’s state airport is officially going by a new name.

As for Boston Logan International, there's always been plenty of international airlines going through here.

As for Manchester Regional - Boston, this was an effort (from Manchester, NH) to get more passengers up there. It's certainly not convenient for me, but it may be for those folks who live up near the MA/NH border.

Once upon a time it was convenient for us to use as it was within biking distance of where we were visiting.

We have coyotes here. We saw one a couple of weeks ago as we were walking down the road. It was strange because they mostly come out at sundown. They have a cry when they howl that sounds like a child. It’s eerie! Dd has them at her house too.

Yes! We also have a lot of coyotes and Fox. At night I cringe at the sounds when they get a lap dog late evening. Unnerving

Walter my former giant lab came face to face with a coyote on river walk. Coyote ran away. We also came across on river walk a male deer, huge with a massive full rack. Walter was no match. We retreated so fast. We both needed to pee lol. I then was able to have public works cut back tall grass siding river walk so we could see what was ahead.

Cesar, try to rest as much as you can, and drink lots of water. I hope these awful symptoms pass soon for you.

Be well sir

Allow me to introduce everyone to our emotional support dog in my dept at work lmao. We had a Spongebob figure that played the role but it went missing, we couldnt find it, and while I was off this weekend, this took its place. I gave it the nametag yesterday, lol.

“Dear Ruth” from 1947, starring Joan Caulfield and William Holden.
Definitely a HOOT…!!!!!

Seriously, I don't know how you get by in those high temperatures, for such a long stretch. We just got through 6 days of a heat wave, with 2 of them at 100. I didn't go out much at all, and felt like a hermit inside for the past week.

Today is much better with the Canadian air finally pushing through down here last night. It's 67 out now. Ahhhh . . . I can breathe!!

In the early 1950s the legendary football coach Bear Bryant of Alabama was a coach at Texas A&M. The infamous summer training the Junction Boys was a near death experience for many. 2-a-day practices for 10 days, players sleeping in non AC huts, 100 players started the camp, 30 players survived, 70 quit the team. How high school and college teams practice in August in TX is an amazing feet in itself.

They gave us this pin at the conference in case you don’t want people shaking your hands, hugging, etc.

Mine is on. U Can’t Touch This.

P.S. I thought I posted this when I came home after drinking last night. Just found out this morning I never hit “post reply.”
