A near perfect summer day and other randomness

Just got back from a 4.5 mile walk. The weather today is near perfect as far as I am concerned. Mid seventies, low humidity, light summer breeze and blue skies. I almost think I could have this weather year round if it weren't for my wardrobe which I get sick of and therefore I am always thankful to switch seasons just for different clothes.
I had my ipod all set for my 25 walking tunes and I started out with Kokomo, by the second song, Country Roads, by the way, I thought the battery was losing its charge. I fiddled a bit but wanted to keep up my gait and I can't do both very well. About half way through the walk I thought I would push the little connector in a bit and sure enough Jimmy Buffet was coming through loud and clear. Silly me and my need to study "Ipods for Dummies." Anyway I actually added about a mile on to the usual walk because I was so happy with the music. It put a skip in my step!
On another note: I heard on the news that a woman training for a triathlon had to be pulled out of the lake in Madison and revived. Now in my humble opinion perhaps she should not be participating in that event!
One other random note: If both Christine and Sarah cannot be on the morning news, I am voting that Charlie just do it himself. That square they had sitting in today was awful. I could sense that Charlie was upset, too.
And as we figured St. George Island stood strong through tropical storm Claudette. Way to go SGI, we miss you and cannot wait to visit you again.
And on all of these interesting notes I am signing off...
