Awake: 6:07am Temp 47 Some clouds Overnight @ Grand Junction, Co
After our morning coffee, we walk the campground for 30 min of exercise.
Then after breakfast I call my Uncle Johnny & Aunt Bertha in Massillon,
Ohio & wish them a happy 64th wedding anniversary. My goodness, they’ve
been married as many yrs as I’ve been alive.
We drive (13 min) & visit our good friends Tom & Marge who live in the
downtown area of Grand Junction. We eat lunch & talk for hrs, then sit
outside on their backyard patio & talk for hrs + watch the birds eat grain
from the bird feeders, drink water from the bird bath, build their nests,
& bring food to their young ones in a nearby bird house. Tom, with Marge’s
encouragement (she’d do more, but she has allergies), has turned this
ordinary backyard into a very lovely, manicured, spacious, & fenced game
preserve where one can just sit around, relax, & enjoy the many creatures
about on a warm afternoon with no fear of being eaten alive.
We stay for dinner @ their insistence: Leftover lunch meat assortment that
we didn’t eat for lunch(turkey, ham & hard salami slices) + provolone
cheese slices with condiments of Triscuits, tomatoes, lettuce &
olives….and we continue our talking for hrs. It was a great day.
Back to the bus @ 9:00pm.
Watch movie on cable: “Gambit” with Michael Caine & Shirley MacLaine. A
good flick with a surprising finish.
Today’s high temp=67 Lights out: 12:01am
