Thursday, June 29, 2023 Keith always talked about picking black caps when he was a kid. I thought his family had made up a name for blackberries, because black caps were not a thing I had ever heard of. I never said anything about it, because I figured if he thought the name was black […]
Wednesday, June 28, 2023 In August of 2007, Gramma’s driveway jumped up and knocked out two of Benjamin’s teeth. Well, actually, it might have been me, because as he walked up the sidewalk, with blood dripping around his mouth, I said, “Did you knock out any teeth?” He paused, thought, then spit out first one,
Tuesday, June 27, 2023 I am going to add some pictures from the cruise that were taken on the camera and that we weren’t able to include in the blog while we were traveling. It already seems like a long time ago – and it’s only been 5 days since we got off the boat.

Monday, June 26, 2023 I have been craving a burrito, so we made a date with Mike and Mary to meet at Nacho Mama’s in Stillwater for dinner. My burrito was good, but I ordered shredded beef, then after it arrived, I remembered I like the seasoned ground beef better. Keith said I can set
Sunday, June 25, 2023 Cheers to us! This is the 500th blog entry. I certainly never anticipated that happening. I thought we would write about Wales and be done, but then it was so much fun to do, I couldn’t imagine being done. I wasn’t ready to come home from Wales – I wasn’t ready
Saturday, June 24, 2023 Dinner in White was scheduled for today, but it was postponed due to rain. We had been going to go with a group of seven and Louise and Tom invited us all over to share our food in the comfort of inside their house. Keith said we should wear black, because
Friday, June 23, 2023 We went to see a funk, soul, rhythm and blues band at the Phipps Center. A college friend and a computer work friend both play in it, so it was fun for us to see them on stage. There is a little art gallery off the lobby that features a rotating

Thursday, June 22, 2023 Because the community theater is performing School of Rock there! We went and it was really well done – except the audio was awful and it made things really hard to hear. So disappointing! We were close enough we could hear most of the spoken dialog, but the music was uneven

Wednesday, June 21, 2023 I had fairly low expectations about the musical Tootsie. I don’t remember much of anything about the movie, other than the premise – that an out of work actor dresses up as a woman to get work. I didn’t think it would work in 2023. I thought we were past making
Tuesday, June 20, 2023 Home again, home again! We had an uneventful flight home. Even though I knew it would be, I was surprised how hot it is here. I have loved the cool Alaskan and Washington air. (I will love the hot air and cool pool tomorrow.) Alexander scooped us up from the airport
