Turned out to be a good day. Went next door to ask Frank if he knew where the LETCO coffee urn is; he thinks it's upstairs in the Community Center. He and Barb were having a late breakfast (very late, it was about 11:30) on their screened-in porch and invited me in. I accepted with pleasure and had coffee and a good chat with them.
Showered and dressed, then left for up north about 2:00. Wasn't due there until 4:00, so stopped and got a six-pack of beer and cauliflower. Got there and enjoyed a beer on the deck while talking to the male half of the northern dwellers. The boys were with their grandfather and Jessie, who had taken them to Great Adventures. They got back and said they'd had a great time, showing off GA shirts, "Tasmanian devil" figures, and so on. J. has learned to juggle three balls and can't wait to show his Dad.
We had dinner on the deck: an appetizer of snow peas and zucchini with a dip, grilled chicken, a terrific salad, and fresh beets, topped off by cake homemade by the boys and the lady of the house for the mother-in-law's recent birthday. After a leisurely meal, we took Lulu for a walk through the neighborhood.
Home by 8:15, talked to sister Betty and to Aline. Latter is unable to go with me today to B.J.'s, so I'll do it, then pick her up for rehearsal. Will bring what I buy then, as I want to be able to leave it there.
Will go back up north this morning to watch the boys while a doctor's appointment is kept.
