As an avid Broadway goer and very pro union (busy time for us folks right now!), I don't think a strike here happens. The League and producers have the world to lose if so.
And a strike authorization vote doesn't immediately lead to a work stoppage. It's a step on the process for potential action.
I haven't paid any attention to weather really but @Newman's post inspired me. It's going to be a wicked afternoon in the south-central plains today. Wowzers.
It's why wind scares me now - well one of the reasons.
We saw the storm off in the distance and assumed staying tied up under the bridge was better than racing back 50 or whatever minutes to the dock in the middle of the night in a storm on a lake that has a ton of trees.
Winds kicked up and the rubbing of the lines around the bridge posts snapped them and our boat got whipped around out into open water and then flipped.
it was my parents, me and our little puppy - we were with friends and had planned to go back around 1 am but the fishing was so good we didn't leave. Than the storm.
Since we were close to a bridge we could get to embankment. I can't remember how we were found - I was a teenager and that is not in my memory but this was before cell phones (mid 90s). I assume a driver saw us.
Is this where I retell the story of me getting caught in a tornado around 1 a.m. while crappie fishing and the storm broke our lines (we were tied up under a bridge) and capsized our boat? And we had a dog with us?
That SUCKED.
Maybe I need to restart my sensor - it can get buggy sometimes if not restarted. It doesn't feel that bad to me though - did some weeding and mow #12 at lunch and didn't get hot.
My favorite temp is around 45. Not too cold to not be able to sit outside, but cold enough that you don't hate life when doing so.
I mean, I love 20 degree days but to be honest 45 is much more feasible for activity!
