Thursday - May 13

NEWS    FLASH !!!
Congrats to Liam with his homerun ball!

Liam hit his 1st homerun tonight - 340' out of the park!!!!    YEAH  Liam!!!!

Another chilly start to the day - (the 30's is just too darn cold for May)!!!   But the sun was shining and we were on our way leaving Fort Chiswell at 8:15.

Virginia is such a beautiful state with the mountains, valleys and endless trees.    We did a quick stop in Newton/Conover (near where Michael and all used to live) - no gas but did have diesel.    We were going to get a donut (Dunkin donuts express was in Pilot truck stop).     No donuts......gal who makes them did not come to work today!     Decided to have lunch at Drew's Diner which is always good and brought back a double bacon cheeseburger for Michael.    Their sign outside said "HELP WANTED....ASAP"
So many businesses are short of help.    After the pandemic, folks are finding they make more with their unemployment checks than pay checks!!!    Arghhhh

We got Flo settled at Michael's (we'll spend 1/2 the time here and other 1/2 at Philip's).    Chatted with Michael and then delivered some things to Annette, saw their new paved driveway and on back to Flo.   It is just a beautiful spring day - 68 and deep blue skies.    Good day for hiking and look forward to getting back at that - maybe tomorrow?

Brooke, Davis, Brady and Blair are back and so good to see them.    Blair finished her homework on Flo; Davis will be starting his internship on Monday.    Along with Brady's golf achievements, he was named "Coaches' Choice" for basketball"!!!

We all went to Root & Vine for dinner - Blair had dance lesson and then joined us!    Great dinner and so fun to be together!
