Gig Harbor
Sunday Jan 30th
50 f and partly sunny.
I am home for one day in between flights. Flew home to Seatte -Tacama for 39 hours to do laundry, see Warren, look at the mail and go to church. Today I was the scripture reader.
Tonight we are going to couples dine in and bringing our contribution.
Dessert. (My favorite besides smiling.) Along with dessert duty I must do the laundry and re-pack for Salt Lake City and my trips around the planet.
This week I will be visiting the east. I will be in Virginia and Maryland. Will give Unkly Joe and Sandy a call.

Yesterday was Robby's Birthday. He went to Cafe Alma with some friends, where he enjoyed baked crusted salmon with horseradish. "It was really good" he said. "fresh horseradish, on the top". You have ta like horseradish. (I do.)
His mama sent him 50 dollars for some shoes. Did you need some shoes uncle Robby? He was teasing her (oma)about how she used to buy him shoes when he was little. So a fun inside joke began going on there. Good one Robby. Maybe if I teased her she would buy me something.
