Another HOT day! I wasn’t outside very much. This evening I spent about 40 minutes pulling weeds and hosing off the back patio stones. They look much better. I find that if I just do a little at a time I can manage something every day.

Much better
Looks so nice!
Diane txt me mid-morning and said she was dropping something off for me. I was in the midst of making lunch for Kathy and I – we had our Altoona trip meeting today. But I had time to spend a few minutes chatting with Diane. And the great surprise was that she found a set of salt and pepper shakers that are COWS! How fun is that! Surprises come in the best forms!
Cute little cows!
My long-time friend Teresa called me and we talked for one hour and 16 minutes! We haven’t done anything together in a very long time and I miss that. Hoping we can do something fun this summer! But I finally got the laundry started and the lunch finished, and Kathy and I had a great meeting. She brought me two patriotic donuts and I sent brownies home with her! We had chicken salad on croissants, tossed salad, fresh fruit, and brownies.
The brownies I didn’t give to Nate and Jen.
Donuts!
We got our Altoona trip organized – we know who is bringing who, when we are leaving, which museum we will be going to first, and when the Baker Mansion will be open. And of course, the Boyer Chocolate Outlet! So we are all set. I emailed the details to Kelly.
Baker Mansion- Altoona
Then we planned out a trip to see UC/AJ and called them to verify that the date was good for them. We talked about a fall trip to Gettysburg, but that may have to be just Kelly and I – Kathy has a pretty full schedule, especially with the trip out West she and Paul have planned. We even talked about Williamsburg. Dare I hope???

Quote for the Day:
PEANUTS?
Tomorrow July 4th is:
National Play Outside Day; Independence Day; Alice in Wonderland Day; National Caesar Salad Day; National BBQ Spareribs Day; National Hop-a-Park Day; Indivisible Day; National Hillbilly Day; Sidewalk Egg Frying Day.
Never fried an egg on a sidewalk or been indivisible. I think Independence is the BEST thing to celebrate! God bless…
