Awake: 6:51am      Temp 45      sleep 6+03      partly sunny      overnight @ Nicktown.

Throughout the day, Kathy had calls from Gary & Rosemary, Katrina, Nick, & later, Zack....all wishes for a "Happy Mother's Day."

I've had the 1984 Ford Van sitting in our driveway for the last couple of days, so today I will be returning it to its lawful owners. K drove the Suzuki to the Foote Castle & I arrived about (5) min later.

We spent mother's day with the Foote Family, mostly in the back yard with the boys. I've been carrying around (2) small generator recharging LED flashlights ever since our machinery expo in Las Vegas, about (3) yrs ago. So today I gave (1) to Matthew & (1) to Andrew. I gave Nathan a small flashlight that he can recharge the battery with Kevin's charger & Gregory was happy to get a little trinket.

Matthew & Andrew were especially looking forward to dark so as to use their LED lighting. Kevin was busy on the grill cooking burgers & homemade fries; Melissa was not her peppy self today, she didn't sleep enough & was very tired. Luckily the boys had much to do about nothing & that kept them occupied most of the time. K & I interacted with the boys off & on & that was fun.

DSC000731.JPG One of the things Matthew & Andrew wanted to do was to lie down in the wagon with a cover over them so it would be dark & then they could use their LED flashlights.

                 Mid-day dinner: burgers, fries, fruit salad,& smoothies; delicious. DSC000732.JPG                  And about an hr later, we had ice cream cake, also very delicious. DSC000733.JPG Aside from Melissa's not feeling so well, we had a good & fun day.Thank you Foote Family.

Back @ our M.H., we watched the movie: "Room for One More" with Cary Grant, Betsy Drake, Lurene Tuttle, George Winslow, etc. Grant and Drake are softhearted couple who can't resist adopting needy kids. Sentimental comedy retitled: The Easy Way; basis for later TV series. 1952. Nice story. Wish it was happening in the U.S. today.

Lights out: 12:33am.
