49º F, Sunny now and then, N wind 13 mph.

Good afternoon,

Pretty much rain all day yesterday and things are still very wet out yet. Not too happy about that, but not much I can change. Have to get out to do things today for sure. Want to get the lawn mowed at least one more time before I can’t anymore this year. Also have the water supply to finish insulating and putting to bed for the duration too. Then I can get back to the project I started on some time ago - new footings under the sunporch.

Margriet has been trying to get our "traveling" information in order this morning. It is surprising how much we have collected and how much needs to be thrown away. It is fun to remember - "remember this place," "we were here," and on and on. We have been becoming rather fond of the U.P. and how many items we have from "up nort’." It really is a pretty part of God’s world for sure.

While we were up there this time, we did find some rather good food too. One place we stopped at last time too was the Happy Italian. We had linguine with meatballs for supper Monday evening. It was way too much for us to eat - even me! Very good and reasonably priced too. Of course we had eaten late in the afternoon in Florence, Wisconsin at Barb’s Café, eating a very large Philly-beef with cheese sandwich and French-fries. Also good. On the return Tuesday, we stopped at Hotdog Heaven for a Chicago hotdog in Iron Mountain. Margriet had not had them before, so we had to imbibe a bit. They were good, but we both took the hot peppers off of them first.

As long as I am on the subject of food, we just finished up the last of the bean soup. It was good one. I did add mushrooms, onions, carrots, and a handful of corn to it. Made it better and more filling than the first meal we had from it. Wonder what will be the next batch I make. Have to get some fixings for it, at least in the form of meat. Hmmmmmmmmm ...............

For some reason this blog is not working well. I can create a blog and post it. I can retrieve it for editing, but cannot open the website with it written in. A couple of folks have emailed me wondering what was going on. I don’t know either, but have contacted the webmaster and hope he/she will figure it out and get me back on line again. In the mean time, this will be short, hoping that eventually you will be able to read it at some future date.

Time to get a-going.

In Christ My Saviour,

Chris <><
