This was a hugely busy day for the older ones on Stauffer Avenue. Dennis had his monthly luncheon with the Korean veterans in Mankato. I took the time to have the little red pickup serviced at Jiffy Lube, which included having the serpentine belt replaced. I didn’t hesitate one bit when it was suggested, as I remember a time past when Kevin and Kersten were stranded due to that self same belt breaking on their vehicle.

I stocked up on a few items from the HyVee store and Walgreens Drug Store before it was time to pick up my ole cowboy from the VFW. With Dennis behind the wheel and the driver’s window open, I was lulled into a bit of a nap on the way home.

This afternoon our acre has been sprayed for all those nasty weeds that love to take over. Yes, Creeping Charlie and Clover is green and lush looking when seen from afar, but it takes over our good grasses so quickly.

It definitely has been a great day, and now it is time to put the feet up and enjoy the breeze that is blowing across the patio.
