The sun shone for much of the day providing something very different than the past couple of weeks. Time was spent working on household projects and chores. Nothing of note to highlight there <smile>. Early in the afternoon, the tree guy came by to trim the branches over the wires, at the east end of the house where storms bends trees down to the roof, and to remove the two larger branches of the tree damaged by Dorian last September. It was a good day to be outdoors working -- warm with little wind and no precipitation. He'll be back mid-week to put everything in the large pile in the back yard through the chipper. That will clean up the area by the back door and the path to the next yard -- where there could be a pathway to Main Street (if someone will take responsibility for the large tree trunk lying across the path <sigh>).
For a chunk of the afternoon, I streamed music from the band featured here. Twenty-eight years ago today Freddie Mercury died. His amazing singing and song-writing skills have been discussed for decades and more recently, emphasized in the biopic Bohemian Rhapsody. I've chosen two selections today. The first brings a view into the progressive (prog) rock genre of the mid-1970s. This one is a classic <smile>. The second song was written by Mercury as a tribute to Elvis Presley. It definitely has that rockabilly feel to it -- a major departure from Queen's other genres. Enjoy!
Bohemian Rhapsody -- Queen
Crazy Little Thing Called Love -- Queen
