I'd be really upset if I lived down the canyon. It's not even 7 am on a Sunday and there's a tree-trimming crew down there, chainsawing and wood-chipping...

Update on the tree-trimming: I just took a walk down the canyon and saw that a giant pine tree had literally snapped in half, with the top portion of the tree falling into the road, so I guess the work is excusable.
NO EXCUSE................before 8 AM is illegal..................7 AM is totally unacceptable........
I am sorry though........

Any Netflix recommendations?
We all seemed to like Sense8 for the first season. I think the second comes in December.

    8/21 - 3: Hope everyone is having a good day. Did my yard work early in the cool of the morning.
    :tumble:
    TIOA Sns9 eps 26: Darlin stood there waiting for it to really sink in, she was wearing modern clothes, a nice white shirt, full sleeved, and button up, she had a pair of black jeans on. She looked really no different than all the rest of the people in the town square. Angel's eyes finally lit up, it sunk in, she started to walk, and then walked faster until she ran forward. Darlin smiled and came forward as well, she did not run, she remembered falling to the ground the last time and did not look forward to scuffing her arms on the brick road.

    Angel made it to Darlin, her forward progress still took Darlin back a little, Darlin had to take a step back not to fall over. Angel wrapped her arms around Darlin hugging her tight, Darlin wrapped her arms around Angel as well and hugged hard. "Oh my lord, how have you been?" Angel asked, her voice shaking just a little. "Oh Angel, I am good, we are good, how are you?" Darlin replied.

    "I have missed you so much, we thought...." Angel started and paused. "What, you thought what?" asked Darlin. "We, no I thought you were dead." Angel said as she hugged harder. Darlin put her right hand behind Angel's head and said. "No, shhhh, I am very well alive, calm down it is okay." Darlin rubbed Angel's head softly, Angel was rubbing the back of Darlin, Angel breathed in, she wanted to smell Darlin again, her hair, to touch her again. Katz came forward and caught Darlin's eye, she stood waiting.

    Darlin looked up at Katz and smiled, and Katz came forward, she wrapped her arms around Angel and Darlin. "Aunt Katz.... my adventurer." Darlin took her left hand away from Angel and placed it around Katz and hugged her back as well. A moment later Angel started to let go, tears were coming down her eyes, she raised her right hand to her mouth, and smiled at Darlin, she said. "You are so beautiful." Darlin placed her left hand on Angel's face, and said. "I come from good stock, come on it is okay, I am right in front of you."

    Angel took a step back and chuckled, she put her other hand up to her mouth and continued to smile. Darlin looked at her and tilted her head to the left slightly. Katz moved around Angel's right to look at her better, she was so small the last time they saw her. Darlin turned her head to the right, someone else was coming up, it was Anjel. Anjel dropped her bags to the ground and waited as well. Darlin did not move and looked at her for a moment, the tension was starting to build, and finally Darlin went over to Anjel and hugged her saying. "It is okay, thank you for saving Angel, I was very young then and did not understand, it is okay."

    Anjel was so happy to hear it, and hugged back harder than Katz or Angel, and she whispered in Darlin's ear. "Thank you so much." Darlin let go and smiled at Anjel. "Are you sure you do not want us to take your bags to your room for you?" Anjel smiled and nodded her head yes. Darlin turned and said loudly to her right, over her shoulder. "Peter, could you please come here and help us please." From the distance a young teenage boy who was helping with the children quickly walked over to Angel, he responded. "Yes, how can I help you?" Darlin turned fully to him and asked. "Would you be so kind as to take Anjel's bags and to their quarters?" Peter replied. "Yes, I would be glad to do so." and turning squatted down and took Anjel's bags.

    "Come on everyone, let's go inside where it is cooler, I am sure you all are tired from your journey's and the day is getting late. I am sure that you are all hungry, please follow me." Darlin said as she put her right arm around Angel's left. "I am sure you know where we are, and where we are going?" Darlin said as she started to walk forward, Angel walked with her and kept in step with her, she said. "Yes, I remember, the great hall, the dining area." Angel pulled slightly at Darlin's arm.

    "You had a great idea.... um no you have a great idea, and now you can see it." The group followed behind as they walked to the north, the stair way up in front of them. Angel looked to the left and thought that must be the location they were tied up to be burned at the stake. A large cherry tree stood in the location, purple crocus fully wrapped around the tree.

    The group followed them up the steps, and started down the short walkway, to the entrance of the building. One thing new, the addition of doors and windows. Large oak doors opened as they came forward, the inside dark compared to the bright sunlight outside. Darlin and Angel passed through the doorway, and entered the room, it was noticeably cooler and pleasant the smell of food was strong.

    The long table was still there, but now much longer, it was covered in pork ribs, rib eye steak, a large brisket with half of it already sliced and ready to eat. White salad and spinach, olives, green beans, potatoes and onions, bell pepper, apples, oranges, grapes, more than you could want or desire. "Please help yourself, and we have many who are here to serve you." said Darlin as the rest came into the room, the doors shut behind them. The room was lit up with giant chandeliers. Candles, hundreds of them adorned the lights, but they were not candles, electric bulbs to look like candles.

    The next table had drinks, there was wine if you were so inclined, grape, apple, and orange juice, water, and tea. Just beyond the tables were large couches, you could sit in it and recline, others were very longs, so if you wished you could lay back propped up to relax and eat. The group was hungry and they went to the table and picked up plates and started to make themselves something to eat. Angel asked Darlin. "Are you going to eat with us?" Darlin said. "I ate not too long ago, but will get something small and join you."

    The inside of the building was white just like the outside, this helped with the lighting, there were heavy drapes near the windows to keep out the heat, but they were open and the sunlight shone through the window, the blue glass changed the hue of the light and shone on the floor. The walls were adorned with paintings from children, flowers, trees, rainbow, an attempt at children outside playing, very well done for a five year old. There were shelves to the west that held books, and just a little to the right, the spiral staircase up.

    The group was talking amongst themselves. "Oh my this looks delicious." "Mmmm. that smells so good, I am going to get some of that." The sound of plates, silverware and cups started to fill the air, as well as laughter. Darlin was very pleased and let go of Angel's arm, she grabbed a plate as well, and went for some fruit, she grabbed some strawberries and popped one in her mouth immediately. "Mmm, that is so good." she said. After everyone got their food, they went to the sitting area, the sat close together. Mandi, Uncle, and Blue were not talking as much, they were looking around the room, the furnishings, nice, but not too haughty.

    1. Good afternoon Treefam...not much going on here today...just another lazy Sunday...at least I think it's Sunday, I lose track of what day of the week it is. :facepalm:

    Me too, but I think my brain is baked. I need a vacation from work. All day yesterday I thought today should be Monday. O. M. G.

    I do reviews, but it IS an obsession...

    @Shawn Hoefer Do you have a blog or somewhere that you post your reviews?

    And a little dinner and it's actually a nice day outside here. Sunny, 78°F and only 53% humidity with a nice breeze. I'm thinking car ride or walk.

    Time to make my contribution for the group dinner.

    after watching Game of Thrones and Stranger Things
    Well GOT is definitely rate R++ for both sex,violence, and language and I would rate Stranger Things as much much milder in all areas, a PG-15.
    I really don't understand the MPAA ratings and assume that anyone under 21 is much more innocent than they really are.
