Thursday morning, and all is well! Today, we will do nothing until noon, when we take the weekly trip to the Elks Lodge for Girls Night Out!<\/p>\n

We went for a speed walk through the garden but then took a detour to do some serious trimming. As a bonus, we crowned the trash barrels because, let’s face it, they needed to feel special before trash pickup day! You know, we have to keep those barrels happy.<\/p>\n

We noticed several melons that are about to come to fruition.\u00a0 We had to look hard because they were almost invisible under their leaves.<\/p>\n

The melons are finally ripening.<\/p><\/div>\n

Meanwhile, back inside, Scout-A-Puss has assumed his favorite position: carefully blocking the hallway, thus keeping any wild elephants from going to the back of the house!<\/p>\n

The baby sleeps a lot now.<\/p><\/div>\n

After going to the bank, we departed for the Elks. Our table was empty! George was there, so we got to visit him; it’s always fun! Bob Z was held at work, Bill was taking care of Mary, Iris forgot it was Thursday, and the others were AWOL.<\/p>\n

The Elks Lobby<\/p><\/div>\n

We strutted back home and decided to take a “quick” two-hour nap to ensure we’d be the life of the party at the show tonight. We couldn’t resist a detour to Dianne’s on our way to the classy Muckenthaler.\u00a0 Then we were off again, and it was like we had a magnetic pull towards food and entertainment!<\/p>\n

Mary packed a magnificent picnic basket with sandwiches, fruit, cookies, stuffed celery, and two boggles of vino; yeah!\u00a0 By the time we finished the basket, we were both full!<\/p>\n

\"\"

We are loving the performance (and being together).<\/p><\/div>\n

The boys were outstanding this evening!\u00a0 We laughed until we hurt!<\/p>\n
