Prize Basket

It was quite an exciting weekend here in Columbia. We started with a Yoga class Saturday morning. Our objective was to meet a new instructor. Unfortunately, they had a substitute — an instructor we had already met and don’t particularly like. Immediately after that I took my bike ride. I got home just in time to get ready for 4:30 mass, after which we had neighborhood bull and oyster roast Saturday night. There was lots of food and lots of people.

You might think Saturday was pretty full, but we actually had even more than that. When we went to the Senior Expo, Danita and I stopped at several booths for a chance to win a prize, or spin a prize wheel, or whatever. I got a nifty pocket flashlight and a T-shirt. Danita got a water bottle. Saturday, one of the audiologists called. I was telling them we weren’t interested when they interrupted me and shouted “Don’t hang up, don’t hang up”. They were trying to tell me Danita won the basket. It was a good one, filled with crackers and snacks that we used Sunday.

Sunday was the fifth Sunday of the month. We like going to Miss Shirley’s for breakfast because the food is very good. We dislike it because it’s a long-ish drive (to Baltimore’s Inner Harbor) and because it’s expensive. So we go there only on 5th Sundays. We both had a great breakfast. It was raining pretty heavily, so the parking garage and elevated walkway came in quite handy.

Sunday evening we had our fall sour beef dinner. It covers a family dinner, Oktoberfest, and Bud’s birthday.

That’s all for this week. I hope this finds everybody doing well.
