It was a day of surprises. One of them I can't talk about, and one of them I won't. But this one, the most pleasant one, I'm glad to describe and picture.
Long-time friends John and Mary Jane Burgess sold their farm last October and since then have been traveling the country. They've become sightseeing retirees without a home. They're in this area for a few days, and Mary Jane wrote this morning to see if we could meet them for dinner.
We met at Mimi's (Mimi's again!) at about 5:30 and sat and talked till after 8:00. It was great to hear about their travels west and south and east, including three months in a rental on Hilton Head Island.
I talked Evelyn and Mary Jane into posing for a picture as we got ready to leave.
Quote of the Day:
“Praise is often much more powerful than prayer, simply because praise is filled with faith, and prayer often isn’t.”
—Alan Ahlgrim, in a newsletter to friends and supporters today.
