Carlene and I are letting each day unfold as it wants to. When a friend calls to see if it's a good time to stop by, we say yes. If another asks us to come sit by her pool, we say yes. We are resolutely not making plans, just letting each vacation day bring us surprises and good people.
When Charlotte brought us a whole bag of sweets from Bakery Lorraine, we ate everything in the bag while Charlotte gave me a tutorial on using the Apple TV.
Bonnie came over and brought Carlene a copy of her book, So Far, and brought pictures to show of Marquam, her delightful grandson who lives with his two mothers in Boston.
Sitting beside Janet's pool, we got to see some of the oral history books she has made--wonderful collections of words and photos and memorabilia.
Joy came over yesterday and brought Carlene a present for each of her nine decades--soaps and lotions and a beautiful assortment of jewelry pieces she had made, along with a bouquet of flowers.
Freda invited us to see a movie we unanimously didn't like and stopped halfway through, but we had a delicious dinner and Freda gave Carlene a book, The Mysterious Incidents of the Dog in the Night-Time.
We've had a meal at Will's and they've been here for a day and dinner and Carlene has gotten to be climbed upon by Nathan and Elena.
We've spent this afternoon with Ted--watching a series of Ted Talks on my new Apple TV. This is the most entertaining one we've seen all day: How I Became 100 Artists. This one is not to be missed!
