i believe his talents may have been passed to our son. Dad was an electrical engineer and our son is a wizard when it comes to mathematics and all things computer related. And in middle school he started playing the violin and while he never had a great interest in competition or practice for that matter, he does play beautifully and continued in the orchestra through high school and often played at church. I just wish I could get him to play for me now but so far, no luck.
Speaking of swimming, that is something I have in common with our son. I guess things are just random.

My previous mentioned dad, whose motto was if 'one can read, they can do anything' actually built a ski boat when I was a year or two old (often heard the story of how I got into the fiberglass and was itchy for days) so I was in the lake most weekends during the summer and learned how to waterski very young. My mother kept the boat for several years after my dad died. And then my husband and I also had a boat for a good portion of our son's childhood. Unfortunately, never actually lived on the water but still enjoyed it as often as possible.
In my older age swimming was more of a favorite form of exercise which was done in a pool but no where near as fun as being in a lake. And I'm guessing your favorite body of water is the ocean, right?

The tv show Succession ended around 2 years ago. I wonder if we'll ever get a sequel. I'd like to see how things turned out with Tom in charge.
Did anybody watch the new episode of Yellowjackets on Friday? The end was a Holy Blank moment. Next week's episode will break the internet.
Netflix just added Aquarius and I'm really enjoying it. It stars David Duchovny (The X-Files) and it takes place in Los Angeles in the late 60s. The central character in the story is Charles Manson.
If you're interested in Manson or serial killers in general check out Mindhunter on Netflix. The actor who played Ed Kemper totally nailed it. The Manson scene is in Season 2 Episode 5 and what Tex Watson said at the end totally blew my mind. I'm like wait, what..
I can't get myself to watch the new episodes of 1923 and I'm wondering if I should give King of Tulsa a try. I haven't started 1883 and I've never seen Yellowstone. Landman was mixed but Billy Bob Thornton was great in it. I enjoyed Lioness but I don't know if I'd watch any new episodes.
Of all of the shows I mentioned, I think that Aquarius is the best. If you liked LA Confidential and Chinatown, Aquarius is the show for you.
Oh, the documentary on the making of The Godfather is really good but I ended up not liking the director very much. There's an indirect connection to Manson and The Godfather. Paramount wouldn't have made The Godfather without the success of Rosemary's Baby and the director of that movie was Roman Polanski who was married to Sharon Tate. There's more to the story but it's pretty wild and I can't prove any of it.
