Last week I received a text from Linda D asking if I was going to watch the lunar eclipse at 5:00AM one morning. I told her no way - I'd be sleeping but I woke up just before time for the eclipse so I got up. What a dummy - I was the only one that was up here in our park so here I am out in the middle of the street in my bathrobe and camera ready to catch the momentous occasion. I took a picture of the moon just before the eclipse but my pictures of the actual eclipse show nothing but black. So here's a picture of the moon just before the lunar eclipse last week. Hope you're impressed.
As you both know, every Thursday morning we have coffee and donuts/rolls and various people in the park contribute money toward the rolls and they announce special occasions. I had reserved last Thursday to commemorate dad's 71st birthday since I was too late to do his 70th last year. A dear 98 1/2 year old friend of ours brought this gift for dad Thursday afternoon. She said she just had to give him something and this was all she had in the house that would "do" as a gift. We have had her to dinner the last two years and she is just a delight. She walks over a mile every day and brings her cane along so use as an exercise stick. She said maybe dad would like to share his gift with me so I have it hanging on the cupboard door.
That's it for today. Had another call from the sweetest granddaughter in the world last night. Found your dress on the internet this morning, Holly. I really like it and can't wait to see it on you.
Love to all,
Gramma and MOM
