Catchin' Up in March

On March 3rd Dad and I sponsored a Gospel Concert with a group of guys we had heard a couple of times before.  We thought they were excellent and after hearing all the wonderful comments after our concert here at the park, there are many people who agree.

 

We put up chairs for 50 people because we wanted it to look full and had no idea how many would come - we ended up with 140 people.  Dad was kept very busy bringing out more chairs.  We collected $400 for the guys - a great evening!!!   DeAnn, you and John should have been here!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 I am learning to knit dishclothes - I'm about half done with my first one.  I told Grandma I would try to make some for her to give away with her nice dishtowels.  It's going pretty good.

 Some friends of ours left us grapefruit on the front steps - they are HUGE!!!  The one we usually have is up front.  Haven't tasted one yet but I'm sure they are good.

 Dad started a new project this morning.  He's sanding the top of our laundry/workshop shed and then we'll be painting it.  He has to work early morning because it's starting to get very warm in the afternoons.

 This is our back patio with the razor wire and barbed wire up and finished - it's a little difficult to see so check out the next picture.

 These are my wonderful Catalina Mountains through our razor wire.  Beautiful.

Last night we went to dinner with Uncle Rich and Aunt Henrietta - it was their 4th anniversary and Aunt Henrietta's birthday.  Went to Chad's Steakhouse and Saloon.  My food was very good - Dad doesn't really like steak any longer so I'm not sure why he didn't order something else and his potato was hard and cold but he didn't want to hurt their feelings by sending it back.  Had a grand time.

 

Be sure to check out Linda's blog - they're on their big trip to the Baja of California.  Tomorrow I'll do a blog on Dad's new toy.

 

Have a great day!!  Love to all
