Snowing in Philadelphia, Jeff said they have 3 inches. Been busy and the weather is getting cooler here. Jeans and a long sleeve shirt today. Even freeze warnings tonight. Read that green papaya is better for you than ripe papaya so I have been picking and trying them different ways.
Trip Log
The alternate activity in case of rain on Black Friday was to go to the movies. But the sun came out and dried up all the rain and Alesa missed out. So, I took her to see 'Murder on the Orient Express' yesterday morning. It was well done. Met Mike and family last night in Mt.
Got up to another rainy day today, had Thanksgiving leftovers for breakfast and Craig and Janet joined us for the day. Alesa and Lisa took a cart ride to Winn-Dixie to pick up egg roll wrappers because Lisa wanted to make Thanksgiving egg rolls in the air fryer.
Happy Thanksgiving to all. Mike and family came back last night and the ladies spent the morning getting ready for our Thanksgiving feast. Connie Fales joined the 6 of us for a fantastic Thanksgiving dinner at around 2.
After the boat rides, Craig put his canoe back on the truck and we had a very nice picnic and the kids played on the playground and rode their bikes. Afterwards we all stopped at Zach and Cathy's to check out their Lego collection.
Craig and Janet's daughter, Kate, and her family are visiting from Austin for a few days and we headed down to Lettuce Lake Park just south of Craig's house. Mike and family came over this morning and they rode with us to the park.
A 'between-the-visits' week and we were catching up and getting ready. Alesa spent a few days focused on platform tennis since some 'world famous' player was visiting and giving instruction to the Platform tennis club members.
Yes, we (Alesa) have the Christmas tree up already. Since the weather has been cooler and we are looking forward to visitors, what the heck? Since the Christmas tree is up, Alesa pulled out one of the citrus trees in the yard to make room for a fig tree.
We have wanted to fill the wall space over the cupboards in the kitchen so we collected items from back home and a 12x12 canvas done by Anika was included. Try and find a 12x12 frame and Alesa was very particular on what she wanted so I built one.
Last Night was the November club meeting and it was a 'dish to pass' night with "The Traveling Nerd" as entertainment. He is a DJ who does 'fun' stuff between the dance songs. He was entertaining and I was surprised at how most of the attendees got into the fun.
