A cloudy , rainy Sunday.   Temperature around 70, so not bad.   We cut the grass this morning, just as the rain started.  We had an open house planned for today so we wanted the yard to look clean.   The weather has been dry, so the grass hardly needed cutting, but it looks better evened out!   We could use the rain, and the crops could, but too bad it is on Sunday.   We have had a good weekend.   We made a trip to Milwaukee on Friday night.  We had promised to get together at Kegel’s in Milwaukee for boneless duck and German beer, and it did not disappoint.  As good as I remembered.   And we had great company with Noel, JoAnn, Tiff, Steve, Andrew and Allison.  And we took the Enders hospitality and stayed at their house and then JoAnn made a great breakfast: like I had not just stuffed my self on duck and spoetzel a few hours earlier.

And then to eat again with Dick and Carol for lunch.   We are making Marie’s farewell tour.   So we had a great afternoon with D & C.    Then back home again.  And a little work to prepare for the open house.  And tonight invited by good friends, again for Marie’s farewell tour, until she is back again in Wisconsin next year!

And still cleaning.   Remember 8-tracks?   This was probably in my 1962 Ford Galaxy 500, 1969 Ford Torino, and 1972 Buick Century.  And probably in my brother’s Gremlin!  I had it in the boathouse and used to hook it up to an old battery when I was doing things down there.    If you need anything let us know!

8 track player!
