15 August 2020 - Plague Journal Day 155

Micah 6:8
Ezra 7:26
Yes, your life matters.

We all are still sheltering in place, but I'm here to keep you sane and entertained.
One could hardly ask for much more than that, now could one?

This is National Acadian Day in Canada, the day the Canadians commemorate their expulsion of the Cajuns from Canada. 

 
Somehow it just doesn't seem very Canadian to celebrate kicking people out of the country, but I guess Canadians are more complex (meaning less polite) than we thought. What's next? National club a baby seal day? 

 Come on, Canada, you're better than this!


Keep Calm and Stay Away.
I'll be back tomorrow.

The End of an Era

No, it's not the end of the world, but it is the end of an era.
My tenure as a daily driver of a GMC Safari has ended after something over 24 years and 465,000 miles. I'm afraid the 2001 has finally given up her duties as my daily ride, making way for a new Acadia which started life with me at a mere 34 miles on the digital odometer.

It's going to take some time to get used to what's where and how that bloody touchscreen is supposed to be convenient when I can't look to see what I'm touching, but I'm sure it's all for the best.

RIP, dear friend.
