What to Watch Today
- Bridge lifts & horn salutes: listen for the three-long, two-short Ambassador Salute when ships greet the bridge.
- Ship IDs: look for hull color, self-unloader booms, and crane count to tell Lakers from salties.
- Wind & waves: easterlies kick up waves at the canal — dramatic entries & spray.

Hello Tea ! Have a nice day !😊
Wow, 61 degrees at the canal. I’m drooling. Sure is a pretty
afternoon with blue water. Just got back from a packed grocery
store. Just HAD to buy a watermelon. Not all that bad in the self
checkout. Have a nice evening.
Good morning everyone! Grab a snow cone before they melt.
Good morning Angelin 🌺

Hello Stasia 💛
Another hot one here in PA. High temp 103°😮
Hello Tea ! Oh God 😰 We have 85°…Drink plenty of fluits.Stay safe..🥤🥤💜
We are blessed to have central air in our house.
Staying inside is best.
Oh yes…. We can’t install air conditioning because facade is protected.That’s why it’s a nightmare.

Hi TEA! Nasty heat dome. Have informed the cats and
Miss Bree we are not sitting on the back porch until the sun
goes down. They love being out there, watching birds, bunnies
and squirrels. Have several water sources available.
Miss Bree and cats may have to wait another day.
Still hot here when sun goes down.
Keep cool as possible….a funny….lol
😂

Over 100° here daily, our cats dont stay out long during the day and then later they lay in the wet dirt in the flower beds.
They are clever to lounge in the wet dirt!
Hope you are doing well!
Yes, we are doing good…..we stay inside most of the day except to water garden and plants.
Hi Stasia!
Hello Angie !😎
