Musings from the shores of Lake Taupo

July

Much has happened in the world. We are just past the middle of 2024 and are slowly plodding through mid winter in NZ. It has been fairly mild so far but still a fair way to go. My wife Sharon and I are finally tying up loose ends with our business and embracing full retirement. We are now seeing many sunset industries such as print media, regular mail deliveries, the firewood industry and other sectors as technology forces change at breakneck speed. There was an attempted assassination on Trump and Biden has withdrawn from the race. These distracting sideshows are irrelevant in that the USA electoral system is broken. Whoever replace Joe will be the next president due to drop box and mail in voting. Fraud is now embedded.
My youngest son turns 25 tomorrow. A quarter century as I head for three quarters!!
