And then this young lady, who had a birthday the previous Sunday and had brought treats for everyone to celebrate, was ready to blow out the candles.
Couple weeks ago, just before the first frost, Phyllis picked the last of our tomatoes and put them in boxes, hauling them outside when warm and taking them in over the cold nights.
Here are some of them now. We have eaten a few. They just wouldn't get red on the vines, and finally are getting red now off the vine. Will wrap the ones we haven't eaten in newspaper when we leave for Texas hope they continue ripening.
Friday night we took Bonnie & Leland Brown with us and drove to Maryville, MO and ate at the new Joy Wok, a fine Chinese Buffet.
On Sunday we headed out to Lincoln, NE at 8:00 am; went to church with my brother Roger and his wife Carolyn Miles and visited very briefly with cousin Angie and her son Michael. Spoke a bit with cousin Keith and his wife Becky Miles and their daughters Tiffany and Jessica. After church we went to a volleyball game, part of a YMCA league. Jessica is in the 5th grade.

I got some movies of Jessica returning the ball, but not a still picture. She is pretty small, but can really pound the ball.
We got a bite to eat after the volleyball game with Carolyn & Roger. Hadn't seen them since last fall and had a too-short visit. Then headed back east to Shenandoah, IA where we stopped at Al & Carolyn Ruhde's place for a visit and then went out to eat supper with them. Home by about 8:00 pm.
Till next time, Lynn
