Our hotel in Duluth is very chill. Free WiFi, complementary bike rental, and THC gummies are available in the gift shop.
The lake is so high they took out the dock sections, and now the frame looks like a scene from a horror movie
Went to Taco Bell yesterday. It was a lot better than I remember (which was back in the ’80s 😃). All staff and customers were less than half our age.
Used my German passport for the first time at AMS to exit Schengen. It was somewhat anticlimactic as US passports were using the same machines.

The trend away from cash in Germany continues, at least for our business. Our sales are now less than 30% cash.
My wife shot the scepter, the tail, and finished off the torso, so she’s the Business Queen of the Schützenfest in Buchholz. She gets to keep the pieces.

I’m not saying I listen to music not appropriate for my age, but Spotify just recommended a “Teen Beat” playlist for me.
Misunderstanding with our accountant. She told us to send her some private receipts in two binders (Ordner), which I packed up and sent by post. She actually meant zip files of two folders (also Ordner). 🤷♂️
