Dry

Turned out to be another nice week weather wise!  The high was maybe low 80's and the nights were 60's ish at the lowest.  But next week looks to be a return to Summer with a couple of days in the 100's (so far).  At least we have the clean air back (kind of, more cars are back on the road again) and no more ash rain.  The smell of smoke has cleared and now all we need, a little rain to wash everything at once.  Just a little rain would be nice ... a few drops here and there maybe?  Anyone?  Rain makers?  That isn't a thing anymore??  What about at least a rain dance for the placebo effect?

Weekly Update:
So this is kind of cool, on Thursday, September 24th at Downtown Disney in Anaheim, Disney unvieled at the old ESPN site a mural for Chadwick Boseman giving the Wakanda salute to a little boy wearing a Black Panther mask.  This is more than just a tribute to the man who portrayed the Black Panther on film, T'Challa.  It is for a man who had a very short legacy with us before he passed away last month due to cancer.  He worked on three movies while sick and visited and supported others (mostly kids) who were struggling in hospitals as well.  He never forgot the gifts he was given and shared them till the very end.  It is also during a time of mass civil unrest in this country ... and being a beacon of some light and hope in these very dark times we are in.  Wakanda Forever!

At the movies:
A little bit of an odd weekend as you will see one retrospective movie on the top 5.  Holding ground at #1 is "Tenet" with another 3.4 million and now at 41 mil cume.  More theatres re-opened this weekend which I am sure is helping it maintain the #1 spot.  Holding at #2 is "The New Mutants" with 1.1 mil more as it approaches 20 mil overall.  Also holding at #3 is "Unhinged" with 1 mil and it is also closing in at 20 mil.  Quick pop-up at #4 is "Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back" with 900k and I'm sure many enjoyed watching it on the big screen again.  Rounding off the top 5 is "Infidel" with 745K as it makes it way to 3 mil cume which is kind of average in general for a film like this.
