SUPPER CLUB - Saturday, Sept 18
Posted: Sat Sep 18, 2021 6:37 am
Good morning!
I'm home! We got home yesterday afternoon, unpacked, and even got 3 loads of wash done. We didn't have so many dirty clothes, but this weekend our weather has taken a drastic turn towards fall and it's obvious it's time to switch trailer sheets from cotton to flannel. So I had a lot of sheets to wash.
We had a really nice, relaxing trip. We did a lot of reading, napping, and games. The park was beautiful, on a lake, and very quiet. Deer roaming the campground was a nice touch. We were 10 mi south of Grand Coulee Dam, the biggest powerhouse in the country. Bill wanted a tour but it was closed so he made do with the Visitor Center. A few miles south was Dry Falls, once the largest waterfall in the world but the Ice Age changed all that and now it's dry. It's so old that it eroded a huge canyon and the falls backtracked 20 miles before the Ice age rerouted the river and dried up the falls. Fascinating. I love geology.
We've got rain here. It started yesterday before we got home and poured through the night. A little wind, too. We turned on the furnace and built a fire in the woodstove. By Tuesday we will be 70* and sunny again. I'll be finishing up the last of the laundry and back working on my LOTR blocks today.
CHICKIE - your little boy is growing up! What a sweetie he is. Glad you had at least one good day. Hopefully there will be many more coming up! Thanks for setting the table!
BECCA - Denise is coming today? Hooray! I live only 2 miles from my parents' farm. I used to visit them several times a week and did various things for them, too like cleaning the bathroom, changing the bed sheets, mopping a floor, etc. House things were very difficult for Mom her last few years. My brother lived on the acreage next to them and he did things for them, too. Blue jobs. I did the pink jobs.
VELDA - You not only fill the tote bags, but you make them, too! Wonderful! Who are they for? Local kids, foreign missions, or ??
I have a bit of marinara sauce leftover from spaghetti night while camping. I think I'll make chicken parm with it. Salad and broccoli should finish out our menu. Unless Mr. Bill finds out about the broccoli ahead of time. lol!
What's your plan?
