LUCINDA WILLIAMS

Okay, I have raved about Lucinda in the past. Someone just posted this on youtube so I am embedding it. I believe her music is on par with Bob Dylan as true poetry. She is very raw, and may be an acquired taste. So, here is a nibble...

October 28?

It was a beautiful day here. High in the 70s. It is supposed to drop into the 40s tonight.

I went to Aiken Friday and came back yesterday. Dad looks great. Elsie is still limping a little from her knee surgery. Saturday morning we went to the pancake breakfast at the masonic lodge. Dad was working. Elsie and I went to a couple of nurseries. I bought a pot at one of them (see above). I also put a little slide show on our garden blog.

Sad news about Rodney Keeler. How old was he? Monna told me the service was today.

oh, no

oh, yes

Name 2010

ok, we need to name the reunion blog - all you clever people give me some blog names.

minnesota to vancouver 2010
MN BC 2010
From Squaw Valley to Vancouver
1960 - 2010 - Celebrate 50 Years of Gold
get your butt to vancouver in 2010

Better suggest or we'll get one like the above!

37 Weeks

Here is a picture at 37 weeks. Baby has definetly dropped, feeling some contractions but not the "real thing".

Vancouver 2010

Just as an additional incentive to the fence sitters on the whole reunion in Vancouver...this will be the 50th Anniversary of the first Gold Medal in Hockey for the 1960 Gold Medal team. I'd think that USA Hockey would recognize this so all the more reason we should be there to be part of the celebration!!

California Fires

I looked at the map of the fires in So Cal. It looked like there was one close to Effie and Jim. I would assume we would hear if they were going to be effected. I know they live in the desert but I seem to remember some hills around that had brush. Let us know.

500,000 people evacuating. That's very scary.

Fall Color

I found some nice color today. A few trees in downtown Canton.

I dreamed about our house and neighborhood in Kent last night. I never dream about it. What, pray tell, can it mean?

Bill requested more detail. There isn't much except I remember Mr. Stegmeister who was one of the first people in america to buy a toyota. And then, here was our neigbor's basement. That's about it.

Fall in Georgia

I keep thinking the leaves are very late in turning. I think it is because of the drought. Here are a couple picks of yard. I also posted a few pictures on our garden blog.
