Breezy, cloudy, warm, temp:68, high: 82.
This morning, Amy, Tim, Mavis, Beth, & Brad have to return to Minnesota. They were up at 4 as Tim had to drive his Mom over to the McAllen airport for her 6 AM flight. Then he returned to pick up the others to take all of them to the Harlingen airport for their 8 AM flight.
Had breakfast with our Canadian friends at Taco Fiesta this morning. Had 8 in our group.
Mid morning, I biked nearly 5 miles through The Plantation. Nice day for it.
It is a very warm day today with the high nearing 90. Tomorrow's high only 63. Weird weather.
Late morning nap.
Today for the first time, Jim drove himself to PT. I think he's happy to be able to do that. Doctor says he's making very good progress. (But he cannot lift seed corn bags this Spring!)
As mentioned above, early afternoon was very warm. However, a front come through and by 5 o'clock, the temp has fallen to 65. Feels cold.
After supper, Phil stopped by saying he thought he had a virus on his laptop. So I went over, and indeed he did; in fact, he had 2 viruses. We removed them and now he's doing a full scan which may take several hours.
Diane & Jim are playing Bingo & Cards, respectively.
Sorry to tell you that I have no pictures tonight. But I'll take some tomorrow.

Warm, pleasant, moonlit morning with high scattered clouds, light breeze, temp: 61, high: 73. Rain coming.
Went to Men's Breakfast at Taco Fiesta. Had just over 20.
Just as we got home it started raining. Had about a 15 minute shower.
Late morning, Phil brought over his golf cart to get help from Jim on installing turning signals without any directions. Four hours later, it was finally operational.
Got so busy with the turn signal project that I didn't get in my daily bike ride. Ugh.
Late afternoon, we drove over to McAllen airport to pick up Mavis who will be staying with us over the weekend. We stopped at Taco Fiesta for supper.
Didn't get any pictures taken today (Oops, see picture below), but should get some tomorrow as Amy & Tim and Beth & Brad are joining us for the weekend.
Finally, re the 2 baby pictures from yesterday, my brother, Jim, is on the left in the baby buggy, & my brother, Tom, is on the right in the high chair. Note Jim has his eyes shut for pictures even at that young age. Don't know the year of these pictures.
Found a picture that I sent to Phil re our turn signal project. It's "greek" to me, but someone out there might recognize it. ;-)

Nice morning, high fog, breezy, warm, temp: 63, high: 76
This morning, Jim went to a Polka Jam while Diane & I went to H-E-B to buy groceries.
I watched a webinar on Windows 10, a Surface Hub, & Holographic Computing & was late to the Paradise Park Jam today.
I did my 2 mile bike ride with temp at 76 while Diane took Jim to PT. He was warned not to wear his sling any more.
Supper consisted of steaks at Dan & Candy's.
Then we picked up Trevor & Seth at the McAllen Airport.
Our regular Wednesday entertainer this week is John Sager. But we were picking up the boys, so we didn't go.
Below are pictures Dan sent me of Reno NV where he & Dawn are attending a rail fan convention after spending several days with Mike & Mary at Lake Tahoe.

If I remember, this is a chair lift from the city of South Lake Tahoe to the Heavenly Valley ski area.

I think this is downtown South Lake Tahoe.
