Visiting

I can remember while growing up that Daddy would announce on a Sunday afternoon, “we need to go visiting.”  We kids would groan because it meant visiting older relatives with no kids, having to behave ourselves and generally having a boring Sunday afternoon.  Well, we went visiting today.

Our first stop was the fairgrounds to watch Michael’s daughter Shannen and our granddaughter Kristen compete in barrel racing. None of the action shots I took of Kristen were good.

Next stop was Nat’s where he gave me a lesson in player piano restoration, he is making progress. 

Our final stop was the nursing home to visit with our friend Jim—his wife, Beryl is the one who gave me the VW just before she died.  It was good to talk to Jim, he is almost 88 years old and still communicates well.  He has that rotten disease—macular degeneration and is almost blind. 

Then it was home where I made another delicious homemade pizza. 

Somewhere last winter I misplaced the user guide for my Canon camera.  I was able to print one from the Canon website but it is so big it sure won’t fit in my camera case like the original guide did!

Tomorrow we may wax some of the motorhome and I need to quilt.  Our friends Gina and Rollie will arrive on Tuesday evening and we are looking forward to that!

Saw this guy on our walk this morning.
