Dear Friends,

Apple became the first $1 Trillion dollar company as I was writing this on Thursday. The actual number they need to reach changes with the number of shares outstanding, but if you use their latest SEC filing it seems that when AAPL reaches $207.05 it will become the very first US company to hit that milestone. This is in the wake of outstanding financial results for their 3rd quarter announced on Tuesday.

I went up to see my friend, Deborah’s, garden the other day and clearly, I live in a cold microclimate because she has fully mature vegetables all ready to go. In fact, she loaded up my saddlebags on my motorcycle with squash, cukes, beans and other goodies. Out garden is suffering a bit because of Grace’s broken hand but there is still food to come out there!

I got my ballot for the August 28 primary in Key West. I will be voting this weekend after I inform myself a bit more on the candidates. Are you registered to vote? Please vote like your life depends upon it!

This week’s Kibbles & Bytes exclusive is on the Apple Watch Series 1 42mm Space Gray with black sport band. I have just 6 of these available and they are $165.99. This should be the best price anywhere and an excellent opportunity to get an Apple Watch. These are brand new with 1-year Apple Warranty. While supply lasts.
