Sunday, September 25, 2022 and Monday, September 26th and Tuesday the 27th, FORSYTH- WARREN BAR FARM and CEMETERY info.

 

SUNDAY:  I left the house a half hour earlier today in order to pick up a prescription at Rite Aid.  I also went to the two other Rite Aids hoping to find more vests in different colors in my size.   Both stores had the vests marked way down, but not in my size.

After church, Betty, Glenda, me and Mary Watt went to lunch at THE OLIVE LEAF.  We had a nice time together.  The place did not have its usual Sunday after church crowd, maybe because of the football game scheduled to start at one p.m.  I had a burger and fries, which was good. 

In the evening I watched more of DOWNTON ABBEY and then I decided to sew my GLACIER patch onto my vest.  I was having a heck of a time, and constantly pricking my finger, so I quit.


MONDAY:  I met up with Lori at the library so that she could help me access HOOPLA.  It turns out that when I lost my library card a few years ago and got a new one I failed to change my password.  So that was remedied quickly enough and now I can access HOOPLA on my chrome book and my laptop.  Unfortunately, HOOPLA still does not work on my ROKU TV, which is where I would really like to use it.  While at the library, I read the most recent Union Sun, and got info about a dinner being offered at UCC on Wednesday evening.  

I went to the TRAVEL CLUB meeting at the Dale.  Unfortunately, the other participants insisted on talking about themselves and their experiences.  Not very interesting.  But, I did get to suggest a trip idea:  Mt. Rushmore and the Badlands and Erin said it is a possibility.

I worked in the front yard a bit, raking up chestnuts or what is left after the squirrels ate the middles.  Also, I worked on sewing my Glacier National Park onto my vest.  It is much easier in daylight.  I must have done close to an inch.  I will work on it a little bit every day.  


TUESDAY:   I accompanied Carrie for her appointment with her primary, Dr. Sauret.  It went very well.  I really like this doctor, he is very thorough.  

On the way back to Lockport, I stopped and bought some apples at Rhinehart Farms


Also, I purchased two pumpkins at another roadside stand.  A dollar apiece.

But there was a real highlight to my drive.  As I was driving east on Ridge Road, just before the Warrens Corner church, I remembered being in the car with Peg not too long ago and her commenting that she saw something interesting just before that intersection.  I thought I remembered her saying she saw a sign for an old post office.  Today,  I decided to stop and see.   I can't understand why I never noticed this before.  It almost looks like it was a tourist attraction that has closed down.  THE FORSYTH-WARREN TAVERN and FARM.  








I found a website with information including a phone number, so I intend to call and see if I can explore the area, especially whether or not I can park and walk to the cemetery!  I can't believe that I did not hear about this place and the many events they had in the past few years.

I found this info. online:

SUNDAY, December 11th, 2022 CONNECT CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON

Image
 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 helper...

Week of Sunday, March 17th through Saturday, March 23rd, 2023

 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. ...

Week Starting Sunday February 25th, 2024

 SUNDAY:  I started feeling kind of shaky and week during worship at church this morning.  So, I had to tell Marlene that I needed to go home after church instead of going to North Tonawanda with her.  Our plans had been to go to Joey's Place for lunch and then to the Riviera Theatre for the free organ concert by Camden Church.  I stopped at Mark's and got a slice of pizza to take home for my lunch.  It was not very good; I am sure it was left over from yesterday.  I found an episode of BROKENWOOD MYSTERIES on Hoopla and watched most of one episode until I started dozing off on the couch.  I spent the rest of the day resting at home, but I started working on planning for Thursday mornings FREEDOM GROUP, which I will be facilitating.   MONDAY:  I had my chiropractic appointment and then went to the Y where I walked 15 minutes and then used the recumbent bike for five minutes. Then I returned a bottle of cranberry juice to Aldi and go...
