OUT & ABOUT:
    ---> Saturday July 11:  Surprisingly sunny for the morning. Pinch me. Got in a walk and yoga workout in the park B4 getting on with producing episode # 127 of THE EARTHLOUNGE at my home studio. Made it into the radio station for 2:30 pm. Deliver the program. Then we got dished a serious cloud burst through Le Plateau and Downtown. The drains runneth over. However, the robins outside my digs were lovin it ... more worms to feast on.

    ---> Friday July10:  Up early (OK, that was a challenge) to take the car into the garage for an oil change and inspection. Gorgeously sunny day. Got a few buddies to head over to 365 Volleyball in the afternoon where we played 2 x 2 all afternoon. Most excellent. Literally met a lady who can skate circles around me. On in-line skates vs. the proverbial "skated circles around me." lol ... awesome. Wrapped the evening with friends enjoying an excellent summer night.

    ---> Thursday July 9:  At last, SUMMER shows up. Enjoyed the summer sun and 25Celsius weather. Cycled up to the radio station in the afternoon tosnag my interview with Eric Ferland of Groupe Ecosphere. Interview was used for episode # 127 of The Earth Lounge on Saturday July 11. Aye,Doesn't get any better for the traditional 5-7 (happy hour) in Old Montreal.

    --->Wednesday July 8: Evening of Beach Volleyball @ 365 Volleyball playing for my team the SOBs.

    ---> Monday July 6:  Played softball in the CMSS mixed, recreational league atPark LeBer in Point St. Charles. Doubly excellent in that: (1) My team, The KOGNAX, won the game 7-6 hanging on after letting a 6-0 1st inning lead slip away into a nail biter (2) It didn't friggen rain this Monday for a change unlike EVERY previous game we'd played @ Le Ber this season.  Had sufficient time to fit in the Budokon class B4 the softball game @ Zazen Spa.
     
    --->Sunday July 5: Outdoors and luvin it all day. BUDOKON in the park. Down to the Jazz Festival to catch Patrick Watson then Steve Strongman (Blues.)
