Halloween’s Coming

We always have hundreds of trick-or-treaters on Halloween because there is a carnival at a park two blocks from our house and kids stop by our house to collect candy either on their way to the park or back afterwards. I’ve stocked up on candy and will be ready to enjoy all the costumes

Balancing

I’m in the process of balancing family obligations and activities, writing and pickleball. It’s a good thing I’m retired.

Our Porch Cat

A cat belonging to neighbors across the street likes to relax on our front porch. When we put boxes out for donation pickups, our porch cat lays out on top of the boxes. The cat used to be skittish but is now used to us.

 

Pickleball

During summer vacation for our grandson, I often did things with him in the morning. Now that he’s back in school, I’m able to play pickleball most weekday mornings. The courts are close by with a good group of people.

 

School Year Has Started

Our grandkids are back in school. We have a fifth grader, two juniors in high school and one freshman in college. It’s a joy to follow their progress.

Visit from Son and Grandson

Our son and grandson from Iowa are visiting this week. We had a chance to get together with our other son and daughter and two other grandsons. Always enjoyable to get the family together.

Our Grandson as Uncle Fester in Adams Family Musical

Our grandson has the part of Uncle Fester in the Adams Family Musical at the Westminster Community Playhouse. He is enjoying acting, singing and dancing.
