This picture was taken through our patio doors as we did not want to scare it. It was fun to watch this pileated Woodpecker.
Life continues on a path that is both busy and fun--most of the time.
Tennis is an up and down thing. I lost another match Monday. We lost the first set, won the second set in a tie breaker and then lost the match tie breaker, a most disappointing day. A downer for sure. Yesterday I played well in a morning match and then I added a good players to my winter team--an up day for sure!
My right knee, it still needs some TLC and the dr. appt is not until the 9th.
A couple of nights ago I went to start the dish washer and NO GO. It is dead. So for a time the kitchen will be disrupted and the bank account will be depleted but--IF that is the worst thing in my life I am a blessed man.
Our weather continues to be hotter than usual. Yesterday I was sweating on the tennis court before we started play.
Terry and I had a fun time at a friend's house for dinner on Tuesday. A lot of laughs and I sold a book! Then yesterday we spent the afternoon at some friend's home as we enjoyed seeing what she had done for her 50th HS class reunion. I sold another book! It was quit a contrast seeing what they put into their reunion and Terry's and mine from Sargent Central--nothing. There is, of course no blame, the fact is there was nobody to pick up the ball and go with it. As we talked yesterday I thought it would be wonderful if someplace there was movies of our marching band. We were the governors band for two years and went on several trips including marching in the Indianapolis 500 parade before the race. I have never seen any pictures of movies and have no idea if any exist but it would be fun if there were some.
We had a great Thanksgiving. Two couples came over about 1:00 and stayed until about 6:00. Good food and fun conversation. The leftovers, they are great!
No, the FP is cold and I need to get to tennis. I have started to get there a bit early and do a fast walk on the machines. This body of mine, at this time, needs to warm up to get going.
