Happy Summer to all 09-16-08
Hi everyone,
I
am sure everyone is very busy with summer fun....what's left of
summer.
The leaves are starting to turn here in Wisconsin already. The crickettes are chirping at night as well. A sure sign of what's to come. Les and I are
taking as many fun weekend trips as possible.
Last weekend we went down to the lakefront for lunch, then went to Port Washington to see the 4 or was it 5 "Tall Ships" that were in port for several days. Hundreds of people were down there. Lots of food, music etc. Then went to Dawn's for the rest of the early evening. It was a great day....... I hope that
everyone is having a great summer. I am still planning on retiring
the end of next year. Early retirement is fine with me.
Work has been the same with lousy management, but just to know that there
is an end in sight makes me feel warm and fuzzy. Hi to all.

Wow, I've been checking in every few days and was beginning to think everyone disappeared. Glad to see your post, Pam. Sounds like you've been keeping busy. I have 12 days of vacation to use before 10/15 so have a couple things planned. Marsha and I are going to Branson for a couple days. Believe it or not, I live a 3 hour drive away and have never been there and its in my own state. I've joked in the past that when I retire,
I'm going to start taking those day trips with the senior citizen
groups. Well, my bank started a new club and that's exactly what they
do so I'm signed up for a day trip to Kansas City to see Marion Ross in
"The Last Romance." When I made my reservation, I was told that only
ladies had signed up for that one which made sense since most men don't
care about romantic plays etc . There's a day trip to Lexington (home
of Harry Truman) next month, in November there's an overnight "Christmas in
Branson" (yup, going back then to see Andy Williams and I forgot which
other show) and in December another day trip to KC to see the
Rockettes. So I guess I'm starting my retirement
plans early.
Have also had
a few unpleasant things happen recently which is part of why I haven't
posted or communicated with anyone but I won't go into those things now.
Have a nice weekend, wherever
you're going.
And hello to
anyone else who happens to check in
here occasionally. Name:John [email protected], Modify/DeleteClick here to Delete or Modify this message General Happy Summer to all (Jill W.) 09-16-08 Re; Happy Summer to all (Anna) 09-16-08
I do enjoy the day trips better than going overnight, but I have done both. Yep, Pam and Ruth, as you get older your priorities do change. As well as lots of other things. We have to go with the flow or stay home and brood.
Have a good weekend, everyone. It is pretty hot here now.
