Summertime





Well, its warmer, time for Beach and Bubble gum music, you can go outside now with just a Jacket on and standing in the sun its warm as you can see by the picture.


We had elections at the American Legion and I was re-elected Post Historian, Chairman of Graves and Registration and Post Public Relations Officer, I declined and gave up Post Finance Officer as it takes a lot of valuable time.

Anna mae is doing "Great", she over does it but thats what women do I guess, always gotta doo that little bit more to "Get-er Done"!!! She now used the 4 wheeled walker only seldom and can usually get around with just her cane.
Wednesday was our Monthly Birthday Dinner we have every Month and celebrated 5 Birthdays, 1 who just turned 90 and another who turned 97, Great Cake and everyone brought a dish to pass and the food was fantastic!!!!

Friday night was our "Bingo" game here and we had about 21 people show up, a good time was had by all.

We were busy this week, we went for a ride and found a "Handicapped Access" fishing spot but it was too far to walk in, we went the next day and fished up in Harrisville in the West Branch of the Oswegatchie and then went to to the "Jerdon Falls" which allowed Anna Mae to fish right off the road and off a bridge BUT water was fast and high and "No Fish" for supper!!

We set up and served a luncheon at Church on Saturday for one of our members, "Our Lay, Life and Work" committee served about 70 people at noon, and of course there was my honey bee bopping around waiting on people and working in the kitchen as much as she could.

Church today was nice, good attendence but anna mae had trouble sitting for so long on those old hardwood benches even with a back pillow she had to get up and walk around, and now I have to start putting togeather some "Sermons" as the Minister is going to be off for a few Sundays and I have been asked to to fill the Pulpit again!!!



Summer is starting, tonights dinner was fantastic, Baked beans with Bacon Strips, Tossed Salad with cheese, grapes, I took 2 large chicken breasts, pounded them down with a mallet, mixed Rasberry and Vinegar, Onion, Garlic, Olive Oil and grilled them for about 45 minutes slowly on the gas grill the Housing authority has put back out for the summer, YUMMY!!!!!






Anna Mae made it out to check on the cook and to get some sun and fresh air and is doing very good. Its hard to believe she had major back surgery 12 days ago!!!!!!!


Well there is some rain forecast for tomorrow but Tuesday its going to be nice and we are going pack some sandwiches, snacks and goodies and drive down to Dexter and fish the Black River!!




I think if the Shipping companies were smart they would make this standard issue on all their Ships traveling thru PIRATE Territory!!!!!!!!!



LETS NOT FORGET OUR VETERANS!!

I think you were wise to turn down at least one job. I know right now you have a plate running over. Don't see how you do it. Glad Anne Mae is doing so well, and truly hope she does not over do. Take care, gonna copy the recipe down sounds great.
I sorta wonder why the Cargo ships don't have a good rifeman or a rocket launcher. Sounds like a few million in ransom is a heck of added business costs.
TAke care.
