Fact: The shortest commercial flight in the world lasts just 57 seconds.<\/strong> – The Loganair flight between the two Scottish islands of Westray and Papa Westray lasts just 57 seconds.\u00a0 At a distance of 1.7 miles, it’s the shortest commercial flight in the world.\u00a0 However, because the trip is made via one of two eight-seater planes, the exact time of the journey could take a bit longer if there are strong winds.\u00a0 Loganair claims it takes less than a minute “in a favorable wind.”<\/em><\/p>\n

We relaxed today and did not get up at the crack of dawn (except to open the door for Scout, The Wonder Dog!\u00a0 Mary and I spent a few minutes in the kitchen making beans that she had soaked all night long.\u00a0 I sliced and diced, and she added the secret ingredients, including the eye of newt!\u00a0 The superhero who loves to have soup all the time is called souper-man.<\/p>\n

\"\"

It’s soup time!<\/p><\/div>\n

With Mary’s assistance, I posted our pictures in the new family picture frames and placed when on the wall in the Family Way.<\/p>\n

\"\"

The pictures are hung!<\/p><\/div>\n

We have several additional pictures to hang and will be working on those tomorrow.<\/p>\n

\"\"

In “The Family Way”<\/p><\/div>\n

The weather was fantastic, although the winds were blowing pretty hard.\u00a0 We could hear our flags waving in the breeze with the front door closed,<\/p>\n

\"\"

It was a glorious day!<\/p><\/div>\n

At 11:00 AM, we took off to the Santa Ana Elks for Girls Night Out.\u00a0 Mike and Linda were there early.\u00a0 Mike had a bag in his hand, and there it was, my belt from Friday Night In Paris.\u00a0 \u00a0Mike paid for the napkins, rescued the belt, and gave it to me, plus a new belt that I will keep in the car in case of emergencies!<\/p>\n

\"\"

The belt returns!<\/p><\/div>\n

Sydney joined us along with the masked cowboy!\u00a0 Bob looks good in his cowboy attire.\u00a0 I overheard him mutter to himself, “There are two theories to arguin’ with a woman, and neither one works.”<\/p>\n

He did pass on to me serious cowboy advice, such as “Don’t squat with your spurs on.” and “Never ask how stupid someone is ’cause they’ll turn around and show you.”<\/p>\n

\"\"

Bob makes a sneak attack!<\/p><\/div>\n

Mike joined us today, a pleasant surprise!<\/p>\n

\"\"

The gangs are all here.<\/p><\/div>\n

The group was incredibly talkative today.\u00a0 When it’s my turn to speak, I always tell them, ” I always take life with a grain of salt.\u00a0 Plus, a slice of lemon.\u00a0 And a shot of tequila.”<\/p>\n

\"\"

And on the other side!<\/p><\/div>\n

Back home, we rested for a few minutes before going to Jan’s to visit and make a quick stop at Ralph’s and TJ’s (Trader Joe’s).\u00a0 We needed supplies for Saturday evening.<\/p>\n

We had to be hone by 2:00 PM as the mirror door people planned to arrive and install the remaining mirrored doors.<\/p>\n

\"\"

On our way to Jan’s!<\/p><\/div>\n

We brought Jan some of her favorites; sushi, blueberry cheese, and focaccia cheese bread!<\/p>\n

\"\"

I was coming home.<\/p><\/div>\n

Finally, we are in for the evening.\u00a0 The guys from the glass store came about 7:00 PM to install the last of the mirrored doors, but alas, one was broken.\u00a0 We will see them again on Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
