1964 A bus ride from downtown Minneapolis to Bloomington (12 miles or so) cost 30¢.
1972 Progressive party. Fran in a wig (no one took a photo!). Scottish eggs at Eric's; Haysons' for fish; Kaci's for main course; Atmores' for dessert and a great rum punch; finishing off at Whites' for coffee where we raffled off a fish hook, a pack of Benson & Hedges and beer.
1977 Aldies came to babysit while Roger treated us to a meal at the Boomerang in Ramarama. Worst meal and service ever. Only two other couples there. A fellow played an organ. Veggies were days old and obviously re-heated. Drinks and meals for three: $27.
1981 Th - Record High = 57°F. David approved for reduced lunch rate because of our low income.
2012 Su - Colleen, Christine and Pip came for a visit regaled us with many stories.
2013 T - Blackie died today, age 69. The Mills, Bobbie and a Lynn joined us for Trivial Pursuit.
2017 Su - Clayton wrote: "I miss you old bastards". 2 hours of yardwork at 3B. Muppet dug under the fence and went into neighbor's yard and couldn't get back.
2018 M - Russell called - in his Te Kauwhata place at long last.
2019 T - Biked to 34OC for an hour's time in the yard. Biked home at dusk (with sunglasses on) and had to stop once - a bit wobbly. Blood gluscose at 3.5 explained that.
2021 F - Turned in my script and Lucy said the meds were the usual boring stuff. Gail and Ne back from Wentworth. Gail damaged a knee on way down from waterfall. Watched Garage Gold.
2022 Sa - 34OC and lucky I went as I discovered left the hose left on overnight and flooded the veggie gardens and the back area.
