You have to admit, that would be unique.
I thought I had escaped, even though my daughter is a nurse, minding a covid ward at one time, and my other half working in a hospital I had always escaped it along with my son. That included the three girls in the family all catching it in the early days and bringing it home too.
I'll try an entry for this one later in the month!
Tev, if you don't make it I can take your ashes for a final ride up to Sally Gap on the back of my CB1100! Can't think of a more beautiful place to end up. It was stunning up there yesterday. Get well soon.
Ah Brilliant spechg! Maybe a tailbag with a small hole at the back starting at the Cafe at Laragh up to the Gap
That would be a very fitting way to go, Tev.
I was cleaning up my office a while back, and found a type-written letter I had submitted quite a few years ago before I had set out on a job that had the poetential for serious injury if one weren't careful. It contained instructions for my final disposition. I was to have my ashes spread over the Indy 500 from the back of a C130 by Chuck Norris.
Aunt Georgina is at Holy Sepulcher on the other side of town, and figured she needed a visit too.
Who knew this month’s challenge would become such a family reunion?
Headed to the museum this morning, I made a quick stop at the hippest cemetery in L.A., called Hollywood Forever. Located on Santa Monica Blvd, it’s surrounded by several movie and TV studios. Several celebrities are buried here, along with an aunt and uncle of Mrs. G’s who passed away years ago before I could meet them.
It’s somewhat of a destination. When I went through, a yoga class was taking place. They also host movies outdoors on the lawn during summer. Too hazy this morning, but looking up the street from the entrance road gives a decent view of the Hollywood sign.
A lot fancier than the burial fields we have around here

Unique idea Gone.
I wonder how hard it would be Gone to get the CB1100 set-up "close" to this landmark in the distance and center? Recognize it?
Hint: The closest I was able to get was about 10 kilometers as the crow flies from Bell Canyon, CA.
Not sure what building you’re referring to there…
