Today’s car ride is only 2 hours so I will have more time to move. Yesterday’s trip through the Napa and Alexander Valleys was beautiful except for the fire scarred areas. Then we went through the redwood forests up to Eureka and Crescent City. Had a surprisingly delicious dinner at a little restaurant next to our motel: salad bar, fresh grilled halibut with roasted Brussels sprouts and potatoes. Salad bars have disappeared because of Covid but none of the other diners chose it. They all had fried food. Yes I looked 😊 Today we go to Wild Spring in Port Orford after we explore the Crescent City harbor. The lighthouse can only be reached during low tide.

Glad that you have had safe travels and such an unexpected, tasty meal.

Hope that all is well. Do you have another party booked?
Cathy
Ugh. . . Glad that you knew exactly how to handle the rats.
Nice that you can now exercise downstairs.
LaDonna
How fun that you all could spend time together in one of your favorite beaches.
Lol. . . Laken is a woman after my own heart. Congrats on catching the biggest fish!

GL with the PT.
Am glad that you have the option.
W/ R, he has routinuely bypassed the stage where less drastic options are possible.
Susi
Hope all the end-of-summer tasks at home & work are winding down.
If I recall, Columbus Day is the next big day at the resort's "season."

Sunday's goals
Finish the big grading task for US I.
Need to decide what dinner will be -- steak or chip stir fry.
Continue to be grateful for R's manageable pain & post-op limitations.

June it was nice to get the invite. We just prefer to spend all holidays solo. Great goals for today and happy that R continues to improve.
Either meal sounds good to me.

Good morning all, Recommitting this morning. About to take my walk and plan meals for today. Laken and her fish is my new avatar. Audrey, Ruby Tuesday here in SC still has a salad bar and it is the best. You have to wear gloves to fix your salad. Your trip sounds like so much fun. You are much better than me about posting while on vacay. Thanks  Hi Cathy, Ann, I'm guessing you got your booster and flu shot? I hope your arm feels better. June, I hope all has been well with R's recovery. I'm glad to hear his pain is manageable. |

LaDonna it's hard planning healthy while on vacation. The choices are there however I just don't think to do it. Lol. Recommitting is a good word.
I agree Audrey does a great job.
Yes both booster and flu shots are done.
Time to stretch and get ready to walk.

Good morning, Audrey - Cathy - Ann - June - LaDonna - Becky - Bee - Susi - and AWL!!!
Prayers continue for you and your loved ones, and thank you for your prayers for me and mine...
Extra prayers for any in the path of fire and storm(s)... and for those who need extra helpings of divine intervention at this time... and a few extra for all students during the 2021-2022 year... and for those who mourn... and for peace in our nation.
And prayers for R's continued uneventful recovery...
💞🐵🙈🐵🙉🐵🙊🐵💞
Yesterday was moderately busy. I got involved in clearing out paper from the last year of Russ🤹Stuff (anything prior to January 2021, except for all the notes on closed accounts; not all gone but much better). The Kressling came in after morning soccer; we were supposed to go for haircuts but decided to defer until NEXT Saturday. So he hung out with Pippin instead. I tried to log in to the patient portal for the orthoDoc but THIS one needs a code from the office and the office is closed on weekends <meh>. And I looked at the PT script, which specifies a particular rehab method (rehab place I'd like to use also closed Sat/Sun). The Zigster came in around 4 PM; his brother went home at 5:30 but he stayed until 8 PM, when his dad and brother also got home.
The two NASCAR races (Talladega AL) - Camping World Truck series at 1 PM and Xfinity at 4:30 PM - were exciting and we got to watch both of them right up to checkered flags. Today's Cup series is at 2 PM, which means we may miss the beginning since we are both on soccerTaxi duty mid-day.
So - soccerTaxi. NASCAR. Italian take-away for Sunday dinner (after soccer, so early-to-mid-afternoon). Not sure yet about the evening, but we have a week full of doctor's appointments so some menu planning would not be amiss.
Coffee... ☕️☕️☕️... more coffee...
🕷🍂🎃🍂🕷🍂🎃🍂🕷🍂🎃🍂🕷🍂🎃🍂🕷
Be well! Have a healthy-eating day, all!

Hi ladies. Yesterday got away from me and today is also in danger of doing so. Yesterday had last minute schedule changes that messed up everyone involved with setting up for the Octoberfest. Lots of wasted time and needless standing around. Today's event is at 2 so I will get a little work done before. I'm hoping not to stay too long but we'll see how it goes. I've read everything but don't have the time at the moment to respond.

Enjoy the Octoberfest and I hope today goes better than yesterday. Nothing worse than waiting around wasting time!
We just got back from Hannaford's. Unfortunately the turkeys didn't come in. The meat department said to check back tonight after 5 p.m. Luckily for us it's just down the street.
We scored everything else that was on the list so we are happy about that.

52 and foggy Before we check out we are going to the harbor to see the fishing boats and photograph the light house if the fog lifts. The lighthouse is 200 feet from shore and only accessible during low tide but dangerous to access even at that for someone like me. I saw many lighthouse is in my youth when I will see steady walker.We will drive to Bandan Oregon which is actually passed our import Orford but a nicer place to have lunch. We cannot check into wild Spring guest habitat until 3 PM which is our little cabin in Port Orford. Today will be an adventure. No personals until I have more time but both of my football teams lost yesterday🥲

Sorry your teams lost Audrey. Sounds like you are having a great time.
Beautiful here right now. Took a ride in the truck to the apple orchard with Benjamin. It was crowded so we didn't stay long. Lots of kids running around.
