Saturday 29- did my stretches, ran a mile, and lifted weights.
The Weather: Temps of around 65-79 with 3mph light breeze coming out of the NW then 7mph from the S later on in the evening. Humidity was around 35 percent, with a light haze filling the skies.
Spent most of the afternoon calling friends, mostly I got their answering machines, but I did get to talk to a few of them. Jawed with my old friend Billee Saunders (yes her name is spelled with two e’s and I just found that out after all these years). She raises doves and wanted me to find out how long they live. I did a search and found that they live, depending on their environment and type of dove: 8-16 years or so. Afterwards I did some reading of October’s Astronomy Magazine, about how the elements, like hydrogen, helium, and lithium, were created during the first few seconds of the “Big Bang”, and how heavier elements were then created by stars.
I cooked up some Stovetop Dressing for potluck, jumped in the “Gross Polluter” and was off to the community center. A little less than fifteen folks showed up, but it was a good bunch of folks, all my friends and neighbors, people that I know and trust. My friend Sherry that I haven’t seen for a longtime showed up and it was good to see her and get caught up on events in our lives. While they were setting up the food and preparing to eat, I roamed around shooting pictures. Surprise, Brenda showed up to collect the CD I burnt for her two days ago! We all had a fine time sitting around eating and yapping, and going to the food table for seconds.
Got home and went for my evening walk. Decided to try a different route this time. I think I will switch the trails where I walk every evening for now on. Did some more reading the rest of the evening until it was time for my nightly bike ride. Updated the website to include that we are having a memorial potluck for Beth after her services on Tuesday, and I also added some potluck pics to the site that I took today. Wrote my blog, posted it to the web, and called it a night. Current Mood:  happy
