Awake: 7:15am Temp 35 sleep 7+01 sunny overnight @ Las Vegas, NV.
My sister Corinne calls from Lilly, PA & informs us: our (96) yr old Aunt Bertha in Ohio fell & broke her hip this morning; she will be going in for surgery later today.
Just after Corinne’s call, we see D & C with their motorhome hooked up to their tow car so we give them a big wave & wish them safe travels as they idle down the street.
Kathy leaves mid morning for another round of window shopping etc. This time out, she returns after (4) hrs; however, she has found a place where we can have our Medicare cards laminated. After digging out my card, she’s off to accomplish this errand.
Meanwhile, ambition overcomes me so I clean the front windshield, outside mirrors & (6) of the (9) basement doors using Windex. A light sooty film had accumulated on both lower sides of our motorhome; perhaps from all the heavy truck traffic & their exhaust as we were driving down the (4) lane state hwy-99 in CA.
Corinne calls again from Lilly & announces: our Aunt Bertha’s hip surgery went well.
Dinner: leftover pork chops, brown rice, asparagus, spinach salad & whole grain toast.
We record the O’Reilly Factor & watch it later zipping thru the commercials.
Evening movie: “It Happened One Night” with Clark Gable, Claudette Colbert, Walter Connolly, Roscoe Karns, Alan Hale, etc. Legendary romantic comedy doesn’t age a bit. Still as enchanting as ever, with reporter Gable & runaway heiress Colbert falling in love on rural bus trip. Hitch-hiking travails, the Walls of Jericho & other memorable scenes remain fresh & delightful; 1st film to win all (5) major Oscars. 1934. This story was great; we both loved it!
