College for Kids

Dick signed Dylan up for a class this week. It's a class about Inventors for kids in grades 1-3, so it was perfect for Dylan, who just finished second grade. It will meet every morning this week from 10-12. Laurie, Chip, Tom and Dick delivered Mr. D to his class, and then went to the Agency so Dick could see if there was anything pressing there for him to attend to. Everything was OK.

Chip and I went to the eye doctor to have his eye checked out. He had gotten something in his eye while weed whacking on Friday. It turned out to be nothing to worry about. We all met up at the Agency and went for breakfast at the Omelette Shoppe. It was great to have a chance to visit with Tom in depth - we really didn't get much of a chance to visit all weekend.

The septic pumper had already finished his job by the time we got home, so the washing machine is back in business!

Tom's plane took off at 3:11 p.m., and then he had a 3 hour layover in Detroit, poor thing. He arrived home safely. We were so glad that he was able to get away even for such a short time!

Everybody but Dick went to see Pirates of the Caribbean at 5 p.m. We enjoyed it - it was entertaining. Everything was fine in the theater, but outside we were having a big storm. Trees were down all over on the way home. The traffic signal at South Airport Road and US 31 was out, and when we got home we had no power. In the theater we didn't have a clue what was going on outside!
