Tuesday February 16, 2016

Log time 1745

The warm up continues. It was 27 when I headed out. Tuesday morning and the Y was not crowded. The New Year resolution folks must continue to drop out.

I did the calisthenics and running before walking to Panera. Panera was very crowded this morning. Justice Scalia and who will succeed him still dominates the news. Russia and Syria seem to be getting the upper hand in the battle for Alleppo. Turkey and the USA are still not on the same wave length. Confusion prevails as the US tries to muddle through.

We still have a nice white layer of snow everywhere. When I was a boy I always looked forward to a new snow. The new snow would cover up the black soot laden snow. The black soot came from house chimneys spewing smoke from our coal burning furnaces. I did not know anyone who did not burn coal. Coal is dirty, dirty!

As soon as I got home we got in the Taurus and headed to Costco. We stocked up on cheese and wine. Nancy was looking for some gardening gloves that Debbie said were super. Gardening gloves in CA but not yet in MI although Costco did have some spring stuff our already.

Quick lunch and then took Ms P on a two mile walk. Followed the walk with a short nap.

Light dinner and then I will read the GRP and watch NCIS. I look forward to reading the paper edition of the GRP. Reading the paper after dinner is an enjoyable ritual.

This date in 1938, Ossineke, MI. GGF Sanborn wrote that it was cold this morning, 10. His only other entry was that he and GGM Sanborn attended a church dinner at the Blanchard's.
