  • Cool, calm, clear, starlit morning, temp: 46, high: 81.
  • Today I have a question for our Minnesota readers. "Why does 46 degrees feel so cool to us Winter Texans, but feels so warm to you Minnesota readers." Is it because our blood gets thin when we're down here for an extended period of time?
  • Jim's arm is getting sorer, so this morning at 8 o'clock, he has an appointment with the doctor who will be calling the Minnesota surgeon to assess what to do next. 
  • Jim came home with his sling off. The consensus was that he'd heal best without the sling. While his arm is weak, he's sure glad to be without that sling.
  • In fact, he felt so good that he wanted to go play Mini golf when we got home. So J&D, D&C, and I played this morning at the Zone Action Park. Candy won with 5 hole in ones.
  • After golfing, we all came home for a nap
  • Later I went for my 2 mile bike ride; temp: 81 at 2PM
  • Then Ruth had asked Jim to mount a new outside light for her. As his arm is still weak, I did the physical mounting taking detail directions from Jim.
  • Beautiful day today. Bright sun, completely clear sky, calm, temp reached 83. Sure felt good.
  • Below are some beautiful scenic pictures taken by Dan & Dawn as they toured Lake Tahoe with Mike & Mary. Thanks Dan, for sending those great shots.

  • cool, breezy morning. temp: 60. High: 70. But no fog this morning. And no rain forecast.
  • first off this morning, I have to report that Jim was the Grand Champion at cards last evening at the Hall. He says he never wins but last night he was the big winner. Congrats, Jim.
  • the Minnesota Breakfast was held at the nearby golf course club house with about 20 attending. had a good time
  • then upon returning, Jim, Dan, & I went over to the Zone Action Park to play mini-golf. After completing 36 holes, Jim beat me by 2 strokes on the front 18 and by 1 stroke on the back 18.

  • after that strenuous exercise, we returned for a nap
  • then after that rest, I biked 2 1/2 miles around our park.
  • finally, we picked up Jim's prescription at Sam's Club & washed the car at H-E-B.
  • my son, Dan, called early evening, brought me up to date on news in his world. Thanks, Dan, for the call.
  • in the evening J&D played Bingo at the Hall while I watched TV at home.
