Sign Here

The carpet cleaners came this morning - they did the living room, dining room and sofa. So the house is a little torn up, with furniture sitting around in odd places.

Dick is working on the landscaping around the new porch. Today he battled the humidity to put down stones along the drip line and mulch around the front.

I took the papers for selling the house to Concord Place for mother to initial and sign. She seems fine, and looks good. She's glad that things are going so well with the house. She seems lonely to me though and a little wistful. I told Dick that maybe Concord Place should be called Wistful Vista - like the old Fibber McGee and Molly Show.

Talked to Laurie and Dylan - it was good to hear from them. Laurie thinks they'll be here for the Big Parade, but it's not etched in stone. They'll stay until the first week of August. Dylan is looking forward to visiting the "Tunnel of Doom". He says you have to keep walking, or you'll lose your shoes. I'm hoping that he'll still want to do blog entries this summer. Last summer was a hoot.

Tom writes that he's coming for a long weekend - Thursday to Monday July 14-18. His friend Conni vanBilliard is coming with him. She must be a brave, brave soul.

Dick and I went to the Cherry Speedway to place the new cache "Gentlemen, Start Your Engines". It's the perfect spot for a cache. We have the owner's permission, and he even sent free passes for us to include in the "treasures". The owner's wife is my nurse at the infusion clinic, which is where we got the idea. http://www.record-eagle.com/2004/may/07cherry.htm

We went for a leisurely ride around Long Lake - very pleasant.
