So good that it over rode a bunch of the other nonsense going on in my life (this dratted reaction to the shingles innoculation, having an aching \/ ailing right arm from wrist to shoulder and so on).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt; color: #0000ff;\"><em>Patti and I up and voted in the upcoming November Election.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>This was no mean feat. First we (me Cap) had to face a long (as in LONG) line (say maybe 500 feet). The successful navigation of the LONG line took one full hour. We took a chair that Patti sat upon at the actual entrance into the voting booth area and waited for me to eventually appear. I stood (and paid our dues) in the LONG line with the others. Everyone was in a good mood.<\/p>\n<p>We had an earthquake (7.5 on the Richter Scale) today and the folks ahead of me in the LONG line were discussing it. When they quieted down I said :<span style=\"color: #993300;\"><em> &#8220;Earthquake? Do you mean what happened to Aaron Rodgers and his Green Bay Packers in yesterday&#8217;s game against Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers?&#8221; The three of them (obviously understood and) let our a roar and howled in delight.\u00a0<\/em><span style=\"color: #000000;\">We really bonded at that point. The man in front of me (tall, snow white hair) suggested I go sit with Patti and they&#8217;d let us come in when they got to the election booths. I politely declined his kind offer.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>A friend spied Patti and visited with her for perhaps half an hour as I slowly approached the end of the LONG line.<\/p>\n<p>And then we voted.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/?attachment_id=42002\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-42002\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-42002\" src=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8580-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8580-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8580-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8580-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8580.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/?attachment_id=42001\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-42001\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-42001\" src=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8579-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8579-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8579-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8579-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8579.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Oh, By The Way, yesterday we had our first snow of the 2020 &#8211; 2021 Winter.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/?attachment_id=41998\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-41998\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-41998\" src=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8518-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8518-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8518-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8518-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8518.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/?attachment_id=41999\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-41999\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-41999\" src=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8558-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8558-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8558-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8558-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/babakaps.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/DSCN8558.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>IF you want to see thirty seven (37) more photos like the above two please go to the below link over on blogspot ..<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bobbacaps.blogspot.com\/2020\/10\/oct-18-20-winter-2020-2021-our-first.html\">http:\/\/bobbacaps.blogspot.com\/2020\/10\/oct-18-20-winter-2020-2021-our-first.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The shingles reaction.
