Some thinking

 It was nice leaving the doctor office knowing I lost 26 pounds. Felt good.  Got thinking of license plate and U-Haul trucks. The truck graphics seen since June 1 is at 14, US plates at 24 and trailers at 22.  I've seen one or two Canadian trailer graphics, all but two plates (Nunavut and Prince Edward Island). And seen all but one truck graphic, that being Prince Edward Island. Canadian ones were easier to remember.

Random fun facts

 Key West FL is closer to Havana Cuba than to Miami FL. Detroit is north of Windsor. Derby Line Stanstead is a welll know border town. Some of the US/Canada border is on the road. The rest in town goes through homes AND a library.  Stuart McLean recorded an episode of the Vinyl Cafe from that library.

Random thoughts.

 Where were you on this day in 1988? I'm talking "that trade." Heard it over the radio and lost it. Was playing Lego with my sister at the time. Now we have teams in places that never had teams at the time of the trade.
