Blog time: Friday, yes a day late, August 27 at 1930

Summary of Thursday’s activities:

Up Thursday Morning at 0630. 

Sister Helen, Nancy and I drove to Nonna’s Trattoria.   Same ownership as Nonna’s Pantry across the street.

We sat outside.  Bob and Helen had oatmeal and Nancy had a fancy biscuit.  Food was good.

On way home stopped at Bed Bath and Beyond but it was closed.  Will try later.

Nancy and Helen head to Woodland Mall followed by a trip to Costco.  They wanted lamb shanks at Costco.  They were out.

Calisthenics and then headed out on a 12 mile bike ride.

Shower and then lunch.

This afternoon we head back to Bed Bath and Beyond.  Helen bought an ironing board and three toilet bowl cleaners (why did I mention that).

Spent time this afternoon in office reading.  Covid and Afghanistan still dominates the news.  Our President has lost all credibility.

I predict that the CA Governor will survive recall.

Tonight AHS has their first football game. The game is in Marquette.

Blast from past our first AHS game when I was a senior was in Canadian Soo.  It was a Saturday afternoon game.  To get to the Soo we took two ferry trips.  One across the Straights and one across the St Mary’s river.  It was hot and we won.

At 1700 we headed to NO CO restaurant.  Karen Horlings met us at the restaurant.  Three Albion College classmates and yours truly.  Very good food and enjoyable conversation.

We got home at 2000.  Sat and talked until 2200.

It was still hot and humid at 2200.  Warm spell will continue for several more days.
