Sunday Evening



Reenie sent these pictures today of a pleasant Labor Day weekend in northern Minnesota. They had a celebration meal with her son Colin for a promotion he had received at work. Otherwise, they have had and are having a quiet end of summer weekend.

Mary and I joined MaryR at the Purple Onion after we did a stroll through Farmers' Market where we picked up veggies, fruit, fresh tuna and fresh halibut. Overall, Mary is improving each day, has lost another pound of fluids but is not always at the top of her game. This recovery is definitely positive but it isn't absolute progress all the time. We didn't see Ingrid today, too busy, but we hope to see her next weekend.

Mary's granddaughter, Charlize, and son, Tim, arrive Thursday evening this coming week. We have two full days with them and Sunday they head back to Tucson.

Also, our friend, Ute, will come for a visit on Sunday. Ute and Joki were married last November which caused me to fly from Hawaii to Berlin to attend the wedding. You may recall that Mary joined me when I changed planes in San Francisco. The wedding was located between Berlin and Dresen so we had a very nice visit as part of the wedding events! I wrote about Thomas, Susan and Joki visiting back in July. Now Ute gets to stop in and see Mary.

Monday is the Labor Day holiday here in the USA. We plan another quiet day and we'll be cooking the halibut. I did the tuna tonight with a baked potato and sugar snap peas.
