Yesterday was a beautiful day!! Darryl and I went for a MC ride up 1431 past Turkey Bend to a road named Cow Creek. Grandma Jean had told us about how pretty a drive it was and she was right. You follow a beautiful creek for about 7 miles or so, and then end up on another road that winds back around to 1431. Then we took 281 all the way up to Blanco. It was a great day for a ride.
Then last night I went to see Fools Gold with Martha. It was a good movie, it just could have told the story in about 20 mins less time and it would have been a better movie.
Now today, I think I am just going to have a relaxing day around the house. I am going to do laundry, read my book, maybe watch a little TV and if it warms up enough this afternoon before the cold front hits I might work in my gardens for a while. It is about all Grandma Duffy can do to keep up with her own, so mine have gotten pretty grown over. But I hope to clean them out and get them looking as nice as she used to keep them.
Darryl is up at the fire hall. They have some cleanup work to do as they are going to use the fire hall as the place to vote this year.
DJ called again yesterday and he should be home on Wednesday or Thursday at the latest. We don't have the details yet, but I will keep you posted.

Since my blogger logs me in from my Lineage Blog... All my comments will show up as 'Sk8'....
But DJ called me yesterday and left a voicemail, saying something about picking him up in San Antonio.
Did you talk to him about that?
Yes, I think he thought it would be easier on us if you could pick him up in SA and then bring him home on the weekend. Dad talked to him and I think it is all clear now that we will pick him up where ever and when ever he gets back.
Are you sure he called you yesterday? After thinking about it more, our conversation with him was on Saturday. So maybe he is still not sure what is going on. If he contacts you again, it is up to you what you want to do. For some reason it sounds like he might be wanting you to pick him up. If you can, that is ok with me, but if you can't then dad and I are more than willing to take care of it. Last dad talked to him on Saturday night, he was under the impression DJ was taking the bus to Austin.
