Subject: Movie Monday! What did you see this weekend? I

watched a documentary film on Showtime about the Go-Go's. It was an informative history of their early punk roots and of course covered the transition from punk to pop, drug issues, squabbles and break up then make up. But they were unique in being the first all-female band that wrote their own songs and played their own instruments to get a number one single. It was pretty good.

and he starts in Zuggspitz, Germany and goes on to the Italian alps. As good as always, with amazing photography. When we travel, we take a look at his videos before we head out to make sure we don't miss anything or waste time at a tourist trap.

planned on a couple of days in Nice, then we go on a river cruise of the Rhone and were going to end that with a couple days in Dijon. I was so looking forward to it. But they cancelled on us (as we would expect) and rescheduled. My goal for the rest of my life is to travel as much as possible, but this pandemic is not having it.

I was planning to take my watercolor stuff and do some painting everywhere I could, especially near the rivers and beach. Ah well.
