Mother Nature put on a sky show this morning while I was doing chores.

Finished reading: Still the Sun by Charlie N Holmberg 📚I really enjoyed this book. While the main character was solving the mystery that made up the plot, I was trying to solve the mystery of the main character. It came to a satisfying ending.
I subscribed to Peacock to watch the Olympics. They did a fine job, and we enjoyed it. Now that the games are over I was able to cancel the subscription with 3 clicks. All subscription services should be like that.
Wild days in the inland northwest.
Voting
My wife and I spent an enjoyable couple of hours sitting on our patio and discussing our choices for office on the Washington State primary ballot. There are a large number of candidates running for state and federal offices. In Washington the top two candidates in the primary for each office go on to the general election without regard to political affiliation. After our discussion we filled out our ballots and took them out to the mailbox. This is a relaxed and efficient way to vote.
We have alot of canola in bloom around us this year.
I spent the day installing new flooring in our house. I found the work left me with a sense of well being and satisfaction.
