Wonderful day yesterday. Woke up to rain; sat in the living room and watched it rain. Around noon, Paul and Susan came over and we went to "Shack in the Back" for BBQ...and it rained...hard....for an hour. We sat outside under a metal awning and enjoyed the rain. We then went to Tuscany for dessert and coffee.
After coming home, we loaded a painting of Rob's and went to Bardstown. Doug volunteers for a group at a clinic there and they are having a charity auction the 31st for under-insured or non-insured patrons and we wanted to donate a painting. We expected to just drop off the painting but we got to see Cheryl as she was under the weather. On the trip down there, we listened to "Water for Elephants" on CD. Makes the trip pass quickly. After Doug and Cheryl's, we went to Brenda's and saw the girls [and Heddy the hedge hog].
Family members are often like scholars: they are not appreciated because we are too close to them. It's a personal manifestation of the adage, "100 miles from home with a brief case"; until we kinda' draw back and look at those closest to us, we really can't appreciate them.
After listening to the #8 CD on the way home, we pulled in the garage and sat in the dark for a while, finishing chapter 19. We need somewhere to drive as we have just a little over two disks to listen to.
