It’s the late evening of October 23, 2021. I decided as I was finishing up on some other computer work, to come over and get a reblog ready for tomorrow.
Sadly, it would not allow me to schedule the post. So, it’s going out late at night, but most of you will see it tomorrow. I mean, it’s not like I think this is the hoppin’ place to spend a Saturday night.
