The usual Saturday morning, listening first to Car Talk, then Only a Game, then Saturday Edition on NPR. Not much changes in my morning routines, as this has been going on for years, listening to these three every Saturday at Chautauqua. It's 22 degrees out, with a touch of pink on the horizon but its mostly a gray blue. The lake is a checkerboard of irregular patches of snow, ice and further out, water with birds still floating, perhaps awaiting the final freeze before heading south.
We had Ron and Linda over last night, a good night of good food and talk. They had had a tough week, with Ron's procedure on Monday but they seemed happy to finally be at the lake where they could relax a bit and take it easy. During dinner, Marlena called last night to tell Evie she had tried two new foods, mozzarella sticks and plain pizza! What a cutie...she was so excited because Evie had been trying to get her to just try things and she did it.
We are off shopping today, to hopefully finish most of our shopping. Yippee.
A daily journal of our lives (begun in October 2010), in photos (many taken by my wife, Evie) and words, mostly from our home on Chautauqua Lake, in Western New York, where my wife Evie and I live, after my having retired from teaching English for forty-five years in Hawaii, Turkey, and Ohio. We have three children, seven grandchildren, and one great-grandson, as you will notice if you follow my blog since we often travel to visit them. Photo from our porch taken on 11/03/2024 at 7:07 AM
