happy birthday manly-man rich !
Rich scraped and hosed off(Oooooooooooooooh. -Ed.)otter dookie from our little floating dock, then coated it with a substance that the previous owner recommended using. It looks great. Happy Birthday Manly-Man, you're #1.

give-away shelf
Hello.
At the opening to our dock (Ooooooh. -Ed.)is a gate with the residents' mailboxes and a shelf for "give-aways". My first few attempts at leaving just the right item failed, but i've gotten better at it. Books and Rich's audio books go the quickest. Each morning I walk 2 the gate and leave my offerings on the shelf. Today i left two posh paisley placemats and the Norman Rockwell calendar i received yesterday from All-State Auto Insurance. Yesterday i left a small high-gloss dark-brown ceramic lamp(white lampshade). The day b4 that i left the David Swenson Ashtanga yoga book. Tomorrow i'm thinking of leaving two modern bright-white coffee cups and a white cotton knit stocking hat, size small.

knock knock
Hello. Our houseboat's previous owners made a surprise visit and brought us these flowers. They were so nice, a young modern northern-Cali couple. She works at the Academy of Sciences and he's involved with GPS technology. He has one patent in this area and is working on his second.
Finally, finally, almost almost finished with the new ACC project.
We recorded the last 3 vocals on the houseboat, my new set-up is genius! Thanks Rich!

my lunch 2day
Hello.
Half of a vegan chocolate muffin, carrots, coffee, and coconut water. After lunch i locked meself out of the boat! ("Oh crikey" as a certain someone would say.) Good thing i had my yoga mat out on the deck with me while i waited for the locksmith. When it turned cold-ish around 5-ish, i used it 2 keep warm, it worked great. Kinda like a wetsuit.
we've got rainbows
Hello!
This is what we saw from our kitchen windows yesterday morn. But THE most exciting thing that happened yesterday was spending not one cent to have stuff hauled from our old house, no dealing with FREECYCLE ppl or CRAIGSLIST ppl. In our old 'hood,on our way to get coffee, we saw a guy on Balboa Street having his weekly garage sale, so we pulled over and axed him did he want to have any of our stuff 4 free. He came over immediately in his truck and took everything...futon, park bench, file cabinets, 2-level wardrobe rack on wheels, 5 floor lamps, blue mirror-top wooden end table from the 40s, clothing, jeez i cant remember what-all, and he's coming back 4 more tomorrow, AND taking junk 2 the dump for us at no charge in exchange 4 all the stuff we gave him. I was dreading having 2 pay for a hauling service; our former next-door neighbor paid over $900 to have someone haul away his unwanted stuff and i just couldnt see doing that. So with the hundreds we saved we figured we were allowed to go to FISH for dinner (again). We knew it would be packed, so we took blankets and bundled up and ate outside under the stars. Wow it was a great end to a bizzizzy day. This is one of our favorite chefs there, he's the one who said "I love u too" when we told him we loved him. He doesnt work at FISH anymore. We wonder where he is and hope he's ok.

we've got a beautiful view
Ahoy! Cap'n Angie here.
This is what we see, at low tide, from the downstairs level of our boat. These steel balls were used to float submarine nets in World War II. During high tide, the balls r invisible.
It's a soft rainy morning, the water looks velvety.
