Wednesday, August 12, 2026 We met Mike and Mary at the Laurel Supper Club for dinner. Pictured is our steak for two – which could be called steak for two for two, as it will make another meal for us tomorrow. Absolutely delicious

Tuesday, August 11, 2026 Christina and her boys came over at 10 am for a great swimming day. We all came over to our house and had a picnic lunch of peanut butter sandwiches. They left about 2:00 and Keith came over to walk back and forth in the pool while I floated. Keith went

Monday, August 10, 2026 I’m not sure I expected I would ever see Keith in a pool again after we moved! After book club today, we hopped in. I floated and he walked back and forth. It’s our way. It was great. I love having the neighboring resort for the week. I found out today

Sunday, August 8, 2026 Mississippi River Brass Band got together yesterday and today to do a recording. Todd came from Iowa and stayed last night with us. Keith said Dan was going to pick him up to carpool, and I asked why not go with Todd? He said Todd came on a motorcycle. I said

Saturday, August 8, 2026 Keith went to a band recording thing all day with a cookout evening, so I had the run of TWO houses today. Trooper and I hung out on the pool deck for a while in the morning. I threw the Frisbee once. He took it and hid it from me way

Thursday, August 6, 2026 We went to Bloomington to see Artistry’s production of In the Heights. I have to be honest, I wasn’t interested in going at all. I have been really good at doing very, very little. It was no surprise that the show was good (they are a very good company) and I

Wednesday, August 5, 2026 Louise and I went to the theater to see the 1987 movie The Untouchables. I remembered it as a really good movie, but that was about all (and the baby carriage, I remembered that). The theater was full (except for the first row). There was a lot to worry about in

Tuesday, August 4, 2026 Keith has been working on the craft room, because he does stuff like that. We went to see Spider-Man: Brand New Day with Tom and Louise, because we do stuff like that. It was great. I love Tom Holland. I love Zendaya. I love Spider-Man.

Monday, August 3, 2026 I found my scratch off world map and thought I would update all the new countries we have had the opportunity to visit since we moved – and some from before. It is a harder-to-scratch-off-the-stuff map than you would expect. I had previously tried a variety of things (coins, knives, dish
