The day started nice with great fresh South Carolina peaches on some biscuits with whipped cream. The rest of the day was filled with taking care of our little old ladies. We are currently in Tuscaloosa for a couple of days moving Mama Ruby from rehab to assisted living. We pray for a smooth transition for her even though she is sad to not be going back home.

Not much happening today. Just more LOL shopping and chores and working around the house.
Something happened Sunday evening when we returned home that we forgot to tell you. We keep a hummingbird feeder out most months of the year. Of course, when we are on projects it gets empty. We just assumed the birds that don’t migrate north moved on and found someone else to feed them at those times. Apparently not. We had been home less than an hour when one pushy hummingbird flew up and hovered at the window and stared at us. Max stopped unloading and cleaned and refilled the feeder. Within moments the hummingbird was feeding. Since then we have seen two others. We sure enjoy watching them.

Today was a LOL (Little Old Lady) Day. Dentist appointments and shopping for our LOL’s. (Don’t be offended, they call themselves that.)
We also were rewarded with a piece of history. While sorting through items in preparation for her move, Max’s mother found this picture of Aunt Jean in McKinley Park in 1944. Since the National Park Service is working on sending a historian to collect an oral history from Aunt Jean about her time in Alaska in the 1940’s, we emailed the picture to our contacts in Denali National Park. They were thrilled to get it. Seems the Sanctuary Cabin (or at least one just like it) is still there.

Today was Max’s oral surgery. Everything went well. He, of course, has some pain and swelling but he can eat ice cream so all is well. Thanks for your prayers!
