MENDON PONDS Park 6/10/2020

Leslie and I had breakfast on our "front porch" of our motel.  Egg salad on wheat bread, banana bread and grapes.  Then we packed up and check out of our motel and headed north towards Mendon Ponds Park.    Our first stop was here
 Wild Wings is still closed due to the pandemic.   We walked the BIRDSONG NATURE TRAIL.
and saw these:  



and many more FAIRY HOUSES.    On our way back to the parking lot we saw several tiny chipmunks.  They were so cute.

The rest of our time there was searching for geocaches.  We found several. Here is the list Leslie sent me, along with reminders of what we found:
Z is for Zebra- small eye level - had a green plastic caterpillar in it
Mendon Ponds Deer- white container
Schrodinger's Box
Mendon Educache- flip flops
Bathing with the Devil Earth cache.
Spycraft Operation Accoustic Kitty

We arranged to be back at TOM WAHLS in time for their Happy Hour Special...……….floats for ninety nine cents.   I  also had the "mini fish fry".  It was a good size and came with fries, coleslaw and a roll.  I gave Leslie some of my fries.  She had a fish sandwich and her piece of fish was absolutely HUGE.    We enjoyed our meal.

We both left Avon at four thirty.   I headed west and turned north at LeRoy to get on the thruway.   I arrived home at six thirty, after going to Rite Aide for the rest of my new prescription.  I noticed that Betty did not pick up my mail today, and later on Peggy told me that her car broke down and after being towed to Zimmie's she was too tired to come over and get it.

SUNDAY, December 11th, 2022 CONNECT CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON

 I got to the church around ten forty a.m.   I asked Lou to let me in to the office area and he did.  I picked up the boxes of cards, list of names and the printed Christmas carols and then I went down to the basement and looked for the "sugars" for the tea.  I found a few.  Then I located the case of bottles of water, but it was heavy, so I located Lou again and he carried it to the kitchen.   Once I got back to the kitchen, I looked for more "sugars" but couldn't find any, so I went to the COFFEE BAR, and they filled a bowl with different types for me.  I got the silverware ready.  I opened up the packaging that held the tablecloths captive (I have had difficulty opening them in the past) so that they would be ready to go.  David and Jan both came at the end of the service.  Jan located the floral displays for the tables, and we started to put the red tablecloths on the tables.  By this time, we had a lot of other helpers.  They put napkins and plasticware at

 SUNDAY:  I decided to go to TOPS before going to church, hoping to get some IRISH SODA BREAD.  They had it (right inside the front door) so I got it, and a couple of other items. Church was excellent, the sermon was about HELL!!!   After church I took my groceries home and put the garbage out and changed into jeans before meeting up with Glenda, Elaine and Betty at LaPorts.  They all had corned beef and cabbage, but I had the turkey dinner.  I brought most of it home.  Pam called and wanted me to go to a musical event at a church, but I really wanted to spend the rest of the day at home.  I had a nap.  I scanned some of Peggy's NURSING HOME MINISTRY at Mt. View into her flickr account.  I found a movie: I ACCUSED, based on a true story.     MONDAY:  I had my chiropractic appointment this morning.  I did some jobs around the house until it was time to go to the Y for my class.  It went very well.  I stopped at THE DOLLAR TREE to get some cookie mixes.  I spent the rest of the day

Week of Sunday September 8th through Saturday September 14, 2024 (new password info)

 SUNDAY:  I got up a bit earlier than usual today because I had things to do to get ready for the COUSINS GATHERING later on here at my house.  Church was very good.  I went to DOLLAR TREE and purchased three bags of ice before going home.  When I got home, I started setting the backyard up with chairs and tables and filled my good cooler with ice and drinks.  Gail arrived first and Peggy and David arrived a few minutes later. Then Mike arrived.  He gave us the sad news that his wife Janie was just diagnosed with breast cancer, after a routine mammogram, a second mammogram and then a biopsy.  He said it was caught very early and Janie seems to be accepting the news pretty well.   David set up his grill in the garage and I brought the meat out.  He seemed disappointed that I only provided FOUR (very large) hot Italian sausage.  I suggested we cut them in half, but he did not seem to want to do that.  He cooked both the hot and mild Italian sausage and one package of ZWEIGLES hot dogs.
