Had a great busy weekend

Picked up my Dad on Saturday and he came out to spend some time here. He enjoyed watching the Tigers baseball game in the big brown chair. It was breezy and clear skies so made for a nice sitting time. Dad enjoyed the chimes (a lot) and watching the birds. Dad said--you need to keep your feeder filled. (Unfortunately then the squirrels come and pig out) Dad's back was bothering him ( a lot) from doing the hedge at home so he had quite a bit of trouble moving around. On Sunday we went to Brunch with Jan and Marshall. We went over to the Hospital brunch--it was very very good!!! I am glad they suggested it.
The landscapers came today. I said goodbye to a lot of old friend plants. The one "kid" who was working was fun. He whistled and grunted and talked to the earth as he worked. He told me he was headed to college in Pennsylvania next fall. He kept hitting things when he was shoveling and would say "I found Jimmy Hoffa!!!" We found a bunch of big stones so we piled them up to put somewhere another day.
I walked this morning with my friend, Jan Stevens. She enjoys a morning walk. Jan Carr will join me some evenings, but keeps very very busy with classes and committees--so our walks have been more hit and miss.
Cynthia has headed to Phoenix to spread her mother's ashes. My heart is with her for sure.
Off to play in the yard. With 60 degree weather it is MOST inviting!
