Events
I was right about yesterday. I haven't decided what I'm doing for the next three hours, but for the moment I'm back at my hotel in Millbrae briefly. I am debating heading into San Francisco proper as I still need 4300 steps, but I'm also tempted to explore Millbrae more. It's possible that I have already explored Millbrae thoroughly, thus the indecision. All I know is, this little town has a plethora of Chinese restaurants, so I will be having Chinese food tonight.

I'm in the Bay Area seeing family and friends, which means lots of time on Caltrain up and down the peninsula but not a lot of time in the city.
This may be a new record: I got from the CTA Blue Line platform to the Admirals Club in 11 minutes. I'm quite pleased. And I have the TSA to thank, by enrolling me in Touchless ID program the last time I flew. I just walked up to the camera, the agent pressed a button, and then she said "Have a nice flight."
I'm getting ready to travel, so all you're getting this morning is a photo of Butters from Sunday:
Still pleasant weather
As promised, Cassie got lots of walks yesterday: 10.4 km in three walks over two hours. Plus she got lots of outdoor time between the walks. The weather stayed comfortable all day and into this morning. After lunch today she'll get another 4-5 km. It's also a perfect day for Ravinia, so a bunch of us will be sitting on the lawn listening to Mahler's 6th this evening.
A cold front pushed through yesterday around 7pm:

Time for a link round-up:
This is definitely an improvement over last week:
I just released a new Daily Parker build with new editing features and some really helpful performance improvements.
