January 16., 2016

Thursday, Susan, Joan, Vern, Daisy and I went to Mel's Diner for lunch - Thursday is brisket day, and they do make a mean brisket!  Daisy stayed in her crate just outside the door, knowing that she was in for a meaty treat once the humans had finished eating their meal! After lunch, we drove down to the east end of the island to take a look at the feral cats living there.  Some islanders come and feed them - but we missed feeding time so saw very few cats.
The evening, of course, was potluck time - I sat beside Zack and discussed The Lightning Thief (which he is reading in his Grade 3 class) and Greek gods. 

Friday was Crafts in the clubhouse - everyone brings something they're working on, be it crocheting, quilting, needlepoint, painting or whatever.  We always have fun - it's a real excuse  to socialize.

Today, Saturday, a storm has been building and is now upon us - lots of thunder, lightning, wind and rain - a good day to be on my laptop, updating this blog!

The palm tree on my site gets bigger and bigger every year!

Storm clouds a-gathering!
