June 30, 2020

Tuesday, 30th June -- Last day, folks, for the lovely month of June 2020, a very strange June, but I'll miss it. It's sort of comforting, like introducing you to summer, slowly and pleasantly.
I received my author copies of DEADLOCK yesterday -- Oh my, they're gorgeous, vibrant colors and when I opened it there were so many words -- alas, no pictures, but there's me on the back looking kick-ass (it's always fun when Charles, the photographer, says, "Okay, let's see some bike macho now, show the world you're one tough mama)-- you'll have to tell me what you think.
Today we're having a birthday party here -- only 4 people but lots of HCF -- avocado eggrolls, salads, I'm homemaking pizza, and strawberry cheesecake -- LOTS OF PRESENTS -- it'll be so much fun and such a different activity --

About the photo I posted with the lovely golden fields of the very old historic rifle range -- I left out a rather critical word and that word is DOWN -- from where I was taking the photo, it was straight DOWN --
Everyone, it's outside with the lot of you, sit on the porch for a few minutes, and then walk through your neighborhood, stopping and chattering and being an all around very cool person. SBB
