My final album

My final album

I still have some left to rate so I'm not finished yet, but here is my #1089. I'm going to listen after a good night's sleep.

My #1 was Hotel California by the Eagles.

The image shows a screenshot of the 1001 Album Generator and my final album of Alien Lanes by Guided by Voices.

We moved my parent from one cemetery to another, corrected the find-a-grave, and 18 months later a new record showed up listing the OLD cemetery. How?

My parent died in the 80s and about 30 years later we moved them to a different cemetery. I requested that the record be changed and it was, no problem. (I have since taken over managing the record, as well.)

The other day I was updating the gravesite photo as now the grass has grown in nicely and I wanted a good picture. I watched the name to find the record and found TWO records: the old one, and a new one for the old cemetery.

Is someone trolling old obituaries or something? (Though I'm not even sure it's online as it was so long ago, pre internet era.) How would they know to make that record? It's not like there's still a headstone at the old place or anything.

I sent a message to the manager and they took it down right away, which I appreciated. But that was the extent of our interaction and now I'm curious. Any insight?

Flying and then roadtripping....what should I make sure to bring?

My daughter (18) and I are flying to California and then roadtripping between San Francisco and San Diego.

Aside from a phone holder for the rental car and a soft, packable cooler for road drinks, is there anything I should be sure to bring for our road trip portion of our trip?

Normally I would probably overthink it and outfit my car with snacks, road games, breakdown possibility supplies (flashlight, jumper cables, umbrella, car trash can, etc).

Or is the cooler and phone holder enough? Oh wait....need to bring car phone charger/cables....what else?

Osprey

I saw it flying over the Monona Metro Market and then land on this light pole in Ahuska Park

Sorry it's just a cell phone pic

My (to-send) postcard collection

I guess I need to do this with my received cards, too! (Only have ~200 though)

Edit to add: If you're seeing the same text twice, it's because I made the label cards and then realized they mostly didn't stand up high enough so I added extender labels. (seen clearly in the first one: airports/aviation)
