Work was light today – I was able to come home and mix up scones and get them in the fridge. Then I picked up Kathy and we headed over to Laughlintown for our last Fireside Chat. And the fireside was blazing and warm.
It was raining, but we grabbed umbrellas and went across to the Pie Shoppe and got pizza and a cookie for lunch. Since we couldn’t eat outside on the patio we took our lunch back to the car and sat and ate and talk. It was a nice, quiet hour. I don’t think we solved any of the world’s issues, but if discussing them could have made it happen, we’d all be in fine shape!
I am fascinated by the barrel catching the water at the corner of the building, knowing that the wooden barrel was handmade. The huge stone in front of the porch has so much character. I have a very small version of that by my front porch, and that stone was the front stoop at my grandparents’ house when we lived on Shady Lane. I love seeing that stone! I have so much from the Crooks family, and the stone is from the Steiner family.
Emily’s presentation was fun and informative. We learned a lot about the combination of words and phrases, and the introduction of new words or the spelling of words. We were sorry that this was the last Chat!
The sun came out on the drive home, although the sky was very dark over the opposite hill. Wondering what weather we will get this evening.
April 7 – Did you ever try to adopt a wild animal? “Yes – we raised wild rabbits when we found a nest. We used a baby bottle to feed them by dripping milk in their mouth. Tried to keep turtles but they wouldn’t eat so we had to let them go back in the wild.”
