Delta variant has forced cancellation of the end-of-summer getaway, and Iโ€™d guess more bad news is on the way.

We are still going to restaurants but only when we can get an outside table. One improvement is contactless payment via phone; I can scan the QR code and pay immediately, rather than waiting for a plastic card to come back.

We went to see an outdoor performance of The Tempest last night, it was a lovely summer evening and the music was particularly fine.

Playing Altoโ€™s Odyssey: The Lost City from the start, itโ€™s pretty much the same as the original but with some fun new terrain and goals in the City. Definitely a stress relief.
