What a happy weekend celebration, Charlie. I’m marking my calendar today cause when it’s your birthday today, I know it’s just six months until Christmas.
COSI (center of Science and Industry) Color Exhibition – it was fun to watch you and your cousin play in the changing hues.
After French Artist Georges Seurat-
I don’t like the shaky sensation of the bridge vibrating and feeling movement when you have to stop on it!
The light at the end of the bridge was red today as we left town.
My friend Vincie clued me in on this route to avoid going through the Ft. Pitt Tunnel.
It was Friday afternoon and there was traffic. We were headed for Ohio. Such threatening skies and heavy rain, so heavy we stopped for a bite to eat in West Virginia as we travelled the two hundred miles to Columbus. Happy we got there safely.
Here’s what I saw as we sat at the light-
Pittsburgh Skyline
Granddaughter Maura texted her photos from the Ringling Bros. Circus.

At 10:36 Friday night, I received this photo in my text from my granddaughter Anna. We’d heard there was a Sun Storm and predictions said look north between 10pm and 3 am
From Columbus, Ohio.
So I went outside and pointed my phone North
Too much cloud cover here on the city. But there was a rosy glow in the sky.
Here’s the sky in the South to compare
I told Charlie it looked like a floating brain. He could blow bungles or multiples.
I’d taken out the little bubble trumpet I bought at The Shadyside Variety Store. Made by Pustefix in Germany “Best bubble formulation” the liquid makes the best bubbles.
My father used to sing the old fashioned Song (written in 1918) I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles we thought so funny…. But this song has been used as a chant for over 100 years by The West Hams a British Football club and you may have seen it on Ted Lasso show scroll down for video of song
I’m forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air
They fly so high
They reach the sky
Then like my dreams they fade and die.
Fortunes always hiding
I’ve looked everywhere
I’m forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air
Here’s the song being sung in London stadium by West Ham Fans
I’m forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air
They fly so high
They reach the sky
Then like my dreams they fade and die.
Fortunes always hiding
I’ve looked everywhere
I’m forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air
