Yes, its abeen almost two weeks since I last posted, and its not because I haven't been around, just haven't done anything super sensational that I wanted to blog about. How's that for saying nothing?
Highlights of the week was probably Tuesday night, when we went to Milwaukie High School to listed to their choirs sing. My grandson Andrew (now just over 6 feet tall) sang in their concert choir, and he had a solo part in the 3rd song they sang. He did very well, and proud mother has it recorded on her digital camera. Will have to go see it over again one of these days.
Another highlight was little Grace, (you'll see her picture on my last blog) who came over Wednesday with her daddy. I for some reason or other started whistling, and she started doing a little dance. Seeing she liked music, I picked up my trusty harmonica and started playing some bouncy tunes, and she just blossomed, twirling around, and beaming a smile all over. Again and again she went till she got dizzy and fell down. I'm glad she loves music, everyone should you know.
I just went on line to see what Michael and Delynn were doing in Germany, to learn that he hasn't blogged for awhile because his internet service was cut off. Not reading German too well he didn't realize he hadn't signed up, or was weeks behind in paying for the service. He has it taken care of now, and someday soon we hope to see what they are doing again. Checked on Jeanine in Casablanca and nothing new since the last part of September. I know she is busy being mom to 3 active kids as well as teaching in the Academy there.
Am going to try and locate 3 of my old Army buddies, James Bryan of Clayton, Ok, Jimmy Clancy of Roff, Ok and Winston Selwyn of L.A. Calif. Now these addresses are 54 years old so there is no telling if I'll be successful, but I did locate two cousins Janet and Roland, and my last physical contact with them were 57 years ago, so maybe I'll be successful.
I got stopped a minute ago when some music program appeared on the screen. I had tried to download a email message that had this music in it. But, seeing it would take 19 minutes to download, I clicked out of the download, I thought, but here it came. Oh the wonders of modern technology (probably misspelled).
Will sign off now, and see if I can find my friends. So, cherrio.....
