Monday

Well the morning started with the rooster around 5:30 but we managed to tune him out until 7 AM before we decided to roll out. Today was Veterans Day and while a veteran myself I pray for all those who are still on the front lines insuring our nations safety with their commitment to the armed services. After our quiet times we did our own thing for breakfast with oatmeal and fruit. I headed outside to water the gardens and seedlings then cranked up the mower and did the yards. That keep me busy until nearly 10:30 when we decided to head to Lake Seminole Park.

We walked the 2 mile trail through the woods which sure beat walking the streets through the hood. The ambiance was delightful but was nothing compared to our daily hike up to the top of the mountain. We encountered several on roller blades, bikes and joggers on the flat paved trail. That was a good workout and the sweat did start as we neared the end. We stopped off at a local health food store for some pro-biotics for Nancy before heading home. Amy was picking up GG and coming for lunch along with Sam.

After lunch Sam and I retreated to the back yard under the shade of the big oak for a couple hours before they had to go. Nancy brought out a plastic rifle she bought a couple years ago that makes the shooting ricochet noise and he was in his element as he usually uses sticks for all his activities. I sat and finished reading IMPERFECT JUSTICE written by the lead prosecutor in the Casey Anthony case. Wow it's remarkable the outcome of that trial and the fact she is free. Once again another travesty of justice and the lack of using any common sense in the deliberations, oh well!!

After they left for home I worked in the back garden and then I grilled a couple pork chops for supper to go along with some fried yellow squash and parsley spuds. After the clean up we tuned into the FOX NEWS and once again the headlines are of scandal, cover up and still no electricity in the North east, LATER
