Sunday June 21st through Saturday June 27th, 2026

 SUNDAY:  I feel somewhat better this morning and am going to church.  I don't think I would be feeling this good without the medicine, though.  Church was very good, and then seven of us went to THE OLIVE LEAF.  Me, Lori, Marlene, Glenda, Carol, Vicki, Louise.  While I was there, I retrieved a text from Andrea asking if I wanted to go to Olcott after church.  I texted her that I would be OK with going later on, around six p.m. and after a while, she agreed.  However, we left around five fifteen.  I had put together some geocaching information, so we stopped at the Van Horn mansion to look for what should have been easy, but we did not find it.  We spent some time at Olcott Beach, but the shops and beach were closed. Andrea took these pictures. 





 When we decided to leave, we were both hungry.  I offered to treat Andrea to supper for her birthday which was a week ago.  We ended up at CAFORA's and we shared chicken wings and a PONZONE. Both were very good.  


MONDAY the 22nd:   In the morning, I did a load of laundry and a few other household tasks.  Paula picked me up at 12:15 and we went to the Harrison Cafe in the Harrison Building (which used to be a huge factory that made Chevrolet radiators, etc.)  It was a little disappointing since it wasn't even fully set up like the online pictures show, and there were not any choices.  One soup, ONE sandwich, but I think Paula had a choice of salads.  Everything was really good, though.  Paula came in and looked at some of my Alaska pictures.  I decided to make some banana muffins before my nap.  I AM TOTALLY OUT OF BISQUICK!  This is a kitchen emergency!!!!

DAY EIGHT of Alaskan Cruise: Thursday, September 18, 2025 Skagway

Image
 This was what I saw out the window when I got up. The RUBY PRINCESS had stopped and we were in Skagway!  We had breakfast at the Botticelli (I had a soft boiled egg, toast, oatmeal and a banana) and then we returned to our room to get ready for getting off the ship and going to Skagway.  We got tickets for Shuttle #10 and went down to wait to be called.  Things moved along fairly quickly. The shuttle boat was one of the lifeboats, it took us to the mainland.  This is a view of the RUBY PRINCESS from the port.   When we arrived we took a shuttle to the downtown area where we walked around a bit. The downtown area has a lot of interesting shops, etc. but we did not have time to go in many of them.  Here are a few pictures:    We found a geocaches in the library (hooray). And you can see it in this picture that I took.   We picked up a few free items from various jewelry stores.  There were a lot of jewelry stores, and we did ...

 Church was very good this morning.  After church, Betty, Jan, Maggie and I met up at Laport's for lunch.  I had the turkey dinner.  It was way too much food to eat in one sitting, so I brought most of it home with me.  Their turkey dinner on Sunday when it is one of their specials is a real good deal: only twelve dollars after the senior discount is used.  Our server automatically gave it to all four of us.  I suggested to Betty, Jan and Maggie that we do this every Sunday after church, going to a different restaurant every Sunday.   The 2022 Ladies Retreat was announced in the bulletin this morning.  Unfortunately for me, it starts the day after I plan to return to Lockport after my week in Allegany State Park with Leslie.  EVEN SO, I plan to go.  I could leave ASP one day early.  I will have to think about this more.  I think I will decide to leave ASP one day early so that I can have one full day and part of anoth...

Week of Sunday, August 10th through Saturday, August 16th, 2025 (Recipe for Crazy Crust Pie)

 SUNDAY:   I took my trash out early today and it was SO HOT, that I felt that my breath had been sucked out of me.  I messaged Jan about it, since her asthma really bothers her in hot weather and I knew that she might be better off staying home from church.  Church was very good, the Eastmans performed and spoke.  After church, Glenda, Andrea, Marlene and I went to THE OLIVE LEAF for lunch.  I had the turkey dinner, which was very good even though they did not serve my gravy on the side like I requested.  I brought a lot of turkey and also my whole gen salad home.  Andrea told us the story about how she and two of her kids along with other people in a church she attended in Ohio went down to New Orleans to help out after Hurricane Katrina.  When I got home, I watched part of the four part documentary about  it.  HURRICANE KATRINA:  Race Against Time.  Crazy Crust Pie 1 C. flour 1/4 C. sugar 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 t...
