Fri. Sept. 8
From a little warmer, but still comfortable MO,
This has been an active day so far. Jim had rehab this a.m. and took the veggie tray and I went by Francine's to pick up the cookies. Of course he had already "presented" the healthy goods when I arrived and indicated something to the effect as to how they had stressed "healthy" living. All had a good laugh when I showed up with the marvelous cookies from Francine's.
Jim joined the infamous group for breakfast - Grand River Inn did have oatmeal today - and then when he got home, we tackled a project in the backyard. The gate on the east fence that used to be in the southeast corner will now be located about in the center of the east fence. Jim dug out a flat area where the gate will be and somehow we managed to move the large concrete slab that we had put into place at the previous gate - 18 years ago. Both of us were soaking wet when the project was done and Jim suggested cleaning up - and then going to the Boji Stone for lunch.
More tables and chairs have been added at the Boji Stone which should make it much easier when there is a large crowd. The original tables were filled today. We ended up not having a meal, but opted for the infamous "turtle" frapee - am not sure I spelled the last word correctly. The coolness really helped make us more comfortable.
We have avoided dozing this afternoon and will be leaving a little before 5:30 for the stadium.
At this point we plan on walking through the Chautauqua tomorrow morning. That walk (stroll) from our house should be equivalent of our usual 1.25 mile trek, but will also include the infamous hill that we will have to climb to return home. We'll see how it goes.
Be safe.

Oh, excuse me! I must have thought the "Jim" you refer to was my brother who had the open-heart surgery with the by-pass a couple of months ago...You must have a new "Jim" I hadn't heard of, who digs holes and charges around the neighborhood up hill and down dale in the 66% humidity of Missouri in September! I trust the one who had the heart surgery is taking it easy?
