Phyllis Diller

So, Garrett can go home and tell everyone he went hiking with Phyllis Diller, except he won't know who that is!  This was one we took yesterday when we were hiking at Quartz.  I thank God for the wind that wrecked my hair because I would have melted and run down into a puddle without the wind to cool me.  I had Garrett's water bottle in my pocket and that helped to cool me, too.  (I had it in my pocket to keep it right side up; in my backpack it was leaking when it got sideways.)  We'll get more pics when we go to the Refuge on  Monday.

Today we went to the Arts on the Square, which is a big part of the Celebration of Freedom that is going on in Hobart this weekend.  I got to see several friends and lot so kids who I had in school.  It was fun and Garrett was a great escort.  I even shopped at the library's book sales and got a bag full of books for $1.  That ought to keep me in reading for the next year!

Garrett and I are playing cribbage and Egyptian war every night.  He mostly beats me, but we have fun!  I'm so glad to have him here with me, and I'm grateful to be able to keep up with him in some things.  He's been a big help in some computer tangles, too!  How nice to have a guru sometimes!
