Even a grey summer's day can be great

It sure was grey and overcast today, even though it's the end of May. Last night, even stranger, was "bright and noisy" due to lots of thunder and lightening. I could see the flashes of light through my bedroom curtains, and the local dogs were in a panic, barking more than I've ever heard them.

This morning when I went down to catch the bus or a ride, I was cheered by the sight of neighbors cleaning the mess around a small garbage bin. They were utilizing their waiting time for the good of the community. It's nice to have such great neighbors.

My long-time regular readers may remember that one of the reasons I decided to buy my digital camera in Jerusalem was for the convenient and easy service. Sometimes I just pop into the store to ask advice or for a clarification or "adjustment," for the camera of course. Today I popped in to make sure that the camera was set for the highest quality pictures. Normally it's not necessary, and I can't remember how to do it and don't have the patience to fiddle. Once the guy understood what I wanted he did it in a second. Next week my NY kids are coming in for a "special event," which I'll blog about later on. I wanted my camera to be at its maximum power.

When I got home, I saw that handrails are being put by the stairs on the path from my house to the synagogue.

Nice day for sure.
