Another week is finished and all is going well. Ken’s appointment is early today, at one, as I suppose everyone wants to get finished and gone for the long week end. I am going to go to Phoenix, but just haven’t settled on how. Either I will drive over early tomorrow morning or Colleen will meet us halfway; Blythe of all places. I have the option of the bus, but since I want to take a sewing project and my machine, that makes it more complicated.
We had Al over for dinner this week and you would have thought he was dining at a five-star restaurant. It was just grilled chicken and salad, but I’m sure it doesn’t take long for a guy to get tired of his own cooking. We will have to do that more often to give him a break.
I finished the book, Chocolat, and am now on to one by John Jakes. Chocolat is a very good read in that it is very well written.
Our garden at home seems to be thriving since Craig sent pictures of parsley and a big mound of tomatoes. Wouldn’t you know, we haven’t had any luck to speak of with tomatoes for the last two years, and now they are great!! But we have been going to the Thursday night market so I can stock up on fresh-picked tomatoes and Bev brought a basketful of heirloom tomatoes from her garden.
There was a forest fire near here in the San Bernardino mountains that actually started in Highland as a result of illegal target practicing, We watched various kinds of aircraft fly over for the first 24 hours as they were hitting it hard, but as of last evening they said it was under control; partly because it burned right into an area that had burned recently. As hot and dry as it is here, I can see why they would take a fire very seriously. As it was, this fire destroyed one or two homes.
Have a happy and safe holiday. Ciao
