I started this morning by doing laundry and working on a few household (small) projects. I even made another coaster – I’m addicted to making those! Look out world!
This is actually the back of my sweatshirt!
A little before noon I made my way over to Kathy’s. The road department was tearing up all the roads going into Overview, and it was tricky to even get there. But Lynn, Corliss and I all made it and settled in for a fun afternoon.
….except for the dog….
Kathy made a very President’s Day appropriate meal – see menu below. She always has Presidential facts tucked away for every day use! And she sets a festive table!
Our presidential menu
We stopped long enough to take a few photos before lunch – then we went into the living room and exchanged unique and quirky facts about some of our past presidents. Here are three facts – see if you can figure out which president they are attached to – answer tomorrow!
Lynn, Kathy, Corliss
Lynn, me, Kathy
1: Carried a dictionary at all times. 2: Was close friends with Nathaniel Hawthorne. 3: Parents were both doctors.
TODAY I am thankful for these lovely ladies and friends!
Lynn, Kathy, Me, Corliss
