Awake: 6:59am Temp 12 sleep 7+00 light snow overnight @ Nicktown.
K & I did some volunteer work this morning for the church after the 10:30 am Mass. We ran a little later then expected but I called Kevin's cell phone to let him know we were minutes to being finished.
To my surprise, they were already @ our house & the boys were sledding down the "Topsoil Mountains." Here they are just about ready to: "shove off." Luckily my camera can handle the high speed shots...Andrew is holding on behind Matthew, you just can't see him. Here is Andrew doing a solo; just look @ that facial expression. Eventually the boys came into the basement of the house where the diesel burner was warming us up... & we needed that! Then the girls took care of the young boys while Kevin & I went throughout the house ...making notes to add more Cat 5 & coax, etc. After we were finished with that project, it was time for the Foote family to return to their Castle.
We look forward to seeing them more often once we get the OK from the proper authorities to move in & we are suitably organized.
K & I were invited to visit & see the Christmas decorations of one of our friends. They had a number of really neat Christmas trees filled with meaningful & memorable ornaments. Oops, wrong photo. Unfortunately, due to a few restrictions & tight security, the rest of the meaningful & memorable ornaments cannot be viewed. We sure enjoyed the evening with this young couple & seeing what we saw.
Back in our motorhome, I called my sister, Mary Jo in Lodi, CA. She is a grandma now (1st time) & had a renewed happy & peppy voice, especially when referring to her new grandson.
Dinner: Baked Pastina chicken casserole.
We finish watching: "Young Cassidy" with John Ford, Rod Taylor, Julie Christie, Maggie Smith, Flora Robson, etc. Taylor's best role ever as the earthly intellectual Sean O'Casey, set in 1910 Dublin; filled with rich atmosphere and fine supporting players. 1965.
This story & movie was....so..so.
Lights out: 12:19am.
