big day in the west

Late yesterday the doorbell rang and they delivered these beautiful marvelous aromatic roses from my step-mother Elli in Michigan. It was a wonderful surprise.
This is Denise in her natural pose. She could use headphones to help from getting carpel tunnel. Can you get carpel tunnel in your ear?
We're a good looking bunch. Well at least three of them are. We have as much fun as it looks like.
Started about 10 AM, slow start,. After breakfast Richard and i went to Home Depo to buy a tarp. Sharon & Richard went on the roof to put the tarp over our e-vap cooler. They did a great job, I did not think i would get this done this year. Well our work is done for today, well not Sharon's. She works all day long. The rest of us went swimming, and had a swimming good time.Then more food before dancing. Picked up Ralph at his place and went to the Bell Rec Center where Denise made lots of new friends. After dancing, we went out to see the Christmas lights. Fun filled day ended early for Richard, 10pm, Denise Sharon and I called it quits about 1:30 after nachos and eggnog. It's no wonder Richard's up at 7am and out for his 5 mile walk before we get up.

Great Day

Here's a farmer who's outstanding in his field. Showing Richard Arizona farming. He was imrpessed with the irragation systems. It is a nice day, 60 and sunny, can't beat it. Got back just in time for dinner. Sharon fixed a beautiful salad and great spagaitti with meatballs. Richard is right, food is great here. I may gain 20 pounds before he goes home. I have a big job to do tomorrow. Just can't think of what it is...

chores accomplished

After two weeks of dripping, Sharon is now happy with the faucets in the kitchen. We took advantage of Richard's plumbing expertise. We jumped on the golf car and ran to the hardware where they were able to fill all our needs. we fixed not only the leak, but replaced the turn off valve under the sink. when i say we, Ipaid for the parts and drove the golf car, couldn't have done it without Denise cheering us on every inch of the way. After the fantastic lunch Sharon prepared, Richard and i took naps and then went to visit my friend Ralph. had to hurry home for another fantastic meal where Richard said he had to quit eating like this. i told him i didn't want to quit. After watching superman returns we found our way to bed.
When i got up this morning, I could not find Richard. When he came home i found he'd been on a 5 mile walk. he now knows more about my neighborhood than i do. he got home just in time for breakfast. Now we have the rest of the day to ...???
