So nice to hear from you both Ellie and Phyllis. I hope the childrens ear infections have healed by now.
We are also having the most beautiful array of fall colors.The leaves are extra beautiful this year.Next week my youngest son and his wife and 4 friends are travelling to your area Phyllis, they have their hotel booked and are planning on Christmas shopping and touring.Mostly it is a fun trip.
My husband is still in hospital but is getting better, he had lost the use of his legs but can now walk with a walker, they are trying in physio to get him walking free again. I am doing good but am in great pain at times,I got bursitis in my shoulder, I sure didn't need this right now.
Starting chemo again this Friday.
Cynthia,Zoe and I went to the pumpkin races in the valley Sunday.First watched the parade then went to this big lake where 60 giant pumpking were released in the water with a man or woman in each,then they paddled to the other side of the lake, about twenty some made it to the opposite side.Other pumpkins sunk and the person in each was picked up by awaiting boats.Some were giant squash.Howard Dill the man who perfected the seeds "which now sell world wide"
was from the area where the races were held.They hold them every year now.Sadly Howard died of cancer last year,he was 73.
I had thanksgiving dinner at Cynthias yesterday with most of the family.I know your thanksgiving is in November Phyllis.I always think of the wax musuem in Plymouth,right across from Plymouth rock when I think of your thanksgiving Phyllis.I was there 13 years ago.Ellie it depicts the landing of the pilgrims , the forefathers of America,when they landed,fought the Indians etc.There is a replica of the Mayflower, the ship they landed in , and the big rock they first put foot on.
Now that is your history lesson for today-lol
Have a great week ladies.
