OHIO HAPPENINGS

Sunday, June 14 – We are doing well and still enjoying the fabulous Ohio weather. We've had a couple humid and muggy days, but for the most part, the weather has been terrific. Bella, our cat, especially has been loving the green grass the the chipmunks to chase. She's out on her leash all day We have to practically drag her in the house in the evening...ha ha!

Marsha has been busy visiting friends, lunching, volunteering at the our church, crafting, and tending to the flower beds. That girl is so busy, she actually has no free time! Smile She's off nearly everyday on some adventure. One of her latest outings was going to the Cleveland Indians game with a group of her church friends. They travel in style.

The next photo was the highlight of her day.  So, can you guess which team didn’t win the game?

She actually taped the game in case she got on TV again. Look at the upper left-hand corner. Recognize anyone?

Paul continues his house projects. He's finished replacing all the windows in the house – a two year summer project and is putting the final touches on the siding he removed or replaced during that endeavor. That's the last of the “big” projects he has planned for this summer.

Paul bottled some wine and has two additional batches brewing, a couple of nice “summer” wines – Kiwi-Pear, a Sauvignon Blanc, and Pomegranate, a Zinfandel. Those should be done by the time we return from our Michigan trip to enjoy before the end of summer.

We have plans to head to Michigan and the Upper Peninsula soon after the 4th of July. Paul's spent plenty of days there, during his working years, fishing with “the boys.” One of his friends had a cabin on Lake Huron, and they spent many a weekend chasing Salmon and Lake Trout over about 35 years.

We've spent the last six or seven winters in the American Southwest. We will probably end up in Texas this winter but are planning to start out in Florida for a couple months (mid-September to mid-November). We are planning on making a quick loop down the east coast to Key West and then back up the Gulf Coast before heading west on I-10 for Texas.

If you are an experienced “winter Floridian” and have some “must see” adventures that you care to share with us, we would enjoy some suggestions.

That should catch us up on our Blogging for now. Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see y’all back real soon. Have a great day!
