DAY 31: Among Friends...
Friday July 21st: A mellow morning and breakfast at Blaine and Judy’s, then we were off for some visiting. Turns out that Georgie, the Humane Society lady, is a neighbor of theirs, so we connected with her and arranged for Ladybug’s future care. Then visited Laurel and Skip’s house in Odessa, and at some point loaded all four of us (me, Blaine, Judy, and grandson Isaac) up for a trip to Corning to tour the Rockwell Museum of Western Art. Blaine was interested in their Ansel Adams exhibit (photography)—and we all enjoyed it immensely!We picked up “the cat” (temporarily Ladybug) on the way home in the roomy cage Georgie had provided, and Blaine was kind enough to let Ladybug stay in the garage for a couple of nights. Skip and Laurel, married just a few weeks ago, came for dinner. I'd never met Skip, but it was great to and to see both of them.
Ginny and Verne came over in the evening—another reconnection. They weren’t going to be at the class reunion next day, so that was our best chance to get together, though I missed meeting their fancy chickens. Ginny is into genetics; currently trying to breed golden-laced Cochins. We had a nice time, sitting on the screened porch (safe from mosquitoes), catching up on some of the intervening years. It’s amazing how much comes back when you see people! Even things you haven’t thought about in 40 years…
