3 Days

Friday, Richard and I went to a car show in Lakeland then drove on over to Tampa. It was a nice outing. He's been going to work earlier and getting off in time for us to enjoy the afternoon and evening times together.

Yesterday, Athena and Brian were here for dinner, and, as usual, they introduced us to a new and interesting game. New to us, anyway. I think it was called Blue Moon City... or maybe New Moon City. We both liked it enough that we're going to try to find a copy.

With their help, we got the giant, hand carved teakwood fish up on the plant ledge in the living room. It looks great. The fish used to hang from the ceiling of a Red Lobster. My brother works with a crew who builds and remodels Dardin Restaurants and gave me the fish after he had salvaged it from the dumpster where some unthinking workmen had left it. I've had it for years but never had a place to put it.

It always blesses me to see my children and their families. We have wonderful and fascinating kids who are all adults now. They are each quite different from the other, which is a pleasing arrangement.

Church was great. Always is.
