No picture today. I will hit the road this morning on my way to North Dakota for the funeral. It will be a short but long trip. Short as I will return tomorrow evening but long in the sense that I will be alone. Terry will stay back to tend the home fires for a short time. She has been under the weather the last few days and home is a better place to be when that is the case.
I had a fun time with the "old guys" yesterday morning. It was fun to remember the past and then to talk about the future. Dennis promised to take up the reins for a get together next summer. It was interesting for me to think about what a breakfast like that would have been like 15 years ago. Well I guess it could not have happened on a Monday as we all would have been working.
Fall must be close as I mowed half of the lawn yesterday and raised the height of the blade. That means fall I think!
It was good to have Marti, the Realtor, over yesterday. I realize she would never say something like I don't like you house but she sounded very sincere when she called the house very charming and nice. Of course she said that with a minus for the kitchen! One thing she said that was a first for me to hear. She said we should keep the full bath on the first floor. Several have told us to use some of that space to enlarge the kitchen and make the bath into a first floor powder room. Marti said a full bath on the first floor would be an important selling point. Another thing she said that I was surprised about. I asked if this kind of house was pretty outdated in terms of what young people want today. She said not al all. They like sunny spaces, wood floors and painted woodwork. Well of all the tings this house does not have it has those! All in all I was somewhat surprised and pleased at what she had to say about the house.
No I think that is about all for this morning. No FP as I met Larry B for breakfast but wait, I could make some and take it on the road. Good idea as Henry would say when he was a toddler.
Here we are at July and the months is Dave's. An outstanding father, dad, woodworker and a man of God he had it all. We miss him.
