FIRST DAY OF NO SCHOOL

This was one of the big days in my life: the first day of school I
haven't gone to since 1960. I had mixed emotions and am still sorting
them out.

Meanwhile:
Dennis and I filled our pickup bed with things from OUR basement and
then dropped by 403 SE 15th for a 'surprise' visit. ('Surprise' because
we weren't sure which day we are leaving for Burns.)

The house was still neat. Meals on Wheels had come and gone. Dad would
be taking Mom for a hair appointment later in the day. Apparently the
smoke alarm had gone off unexpectedly last night and scared the tar out
of both of them last night. We determined it was the battery going
dead.

Dennis attacked the cat spray area with a commercial product we bought.
We'll see how well it works while we are away. We didn't stay long. 

It's off to Burns tomorrow for a few days. Most likely we will return
on Sunday. Thanks to anyone of you who will call just to make sure
things are going okay.

Laird: thanks for the photos. Especially the Trick My Bike one.
Chris: thanks for setting up the blog page. Always wanted to be
pubished!


Love,
Daphne
