Monday we had dinner at the Maloney's. They have been in Erie since May and just returned. They bought a condo just off the Peninsula and spent a lot of the summer fixing it up. Election day was interesting but we had voted last month by mail so we did our normal activities. I hit a long golf shot through the trees and knocked a bird down. We picked him/her up and kept it in a towel until we were sure it recovered. It flew away so we were all relieved. Thursday night was the November Erie Club meeting with a dish to pass and a comedy team for entertainment. Attendance was down a bit but seems to pick up again when we supply the food. On Veterans' Day we headed down to Brownwood where Scooter the DJ was hosting a 'Tribute to the Veterans'. It was a good time with quite a crowd, plenty of entertainment and lots of activities. Since Alesa is having a bit of trouble with her knee, I installed grab bars in each of the bathrooms. We are getting to that point when they come in handy once in awhile. Mostly sports injuries at this point but better safe than sorry.
