1947 Flew from Vienna to the Minnesota in the States.
1960 Dad brought Grandpa to VA hospital for his checkup. We brought Grandpa to Lake Nokomis for a picnic and swim.
1971 Whites, Phil and I played bridge for 14 hours (11AM - 1AM) amassing 20,000 points. Susi and I lost by 6,000 points. We stopped at 2PM and went to chow at the PWD.
1975 Golfed the back nine at Theodore Wirth Park with Bob. I had two pars and some nice shots, but my short game was bad.
1980 F - Went to "Picadilly Circus" at Northtown. Went on the bumper cars and then played miniature golf (dad's first time). Couple of rides for the kids. Across the street to eat at Sambo's.
1981 Sa - At 7PM we went to Dianne Carrington's graduation open house. Met Charlie's sisters, Mata and Rose, Charlie's co-worker, Marge and her son Tony and her sister, Marge. Had a long talk with Lee. We left at 10:30PM after the gifts were opened (gave her a hankie) and cake was served.
1982 Su - Gail's folks visited with Darryl and Delores. Showed them around the yard and gave them rhubarb plants to bring back to New Jersey. Had a late lunch (very good Kabinet '79 Mosel-Saar-Ruwer and okay Colony Burgundy) with them.
1983 M - Had Lunch at Buffalo Cafe in Aberdeen, SD. Checked out Storybook Land with many interesting items just plonked down in an open field. Liked the rolling hills - crossed the Missouri at Mobridge. Long winding drive to Timber Lake. Stayed at the Lundholm Computer Center. Dave has lost a lot of weight. After supper we did a little bottle shooting at the dump with air rifles. Linda worked night shift.
1987 Kathy visited and gave me a thank you card for the birthday card. Clark's for Mike's birthday. Late start and party boring actually. The Matua '86 Chablis was very good and the Babich '80 cabsav only good. Gave him the Grand Prix game and played it until 1:30AM.
1992 Matthew came after his soccer game. I went to watch Ne's team win a fast netball game. Made a Popeye cake for Tracy. Whites came around 3PM (had a blowout on motorway). (video) Played Pictionary.
2006 Up at 5:30AM in anticipation of needing to be up by 9AM so I could get Steph to the airport on time. But she had a migraine so we delayed departure until 10AM. Then I missed the airport turnoff, but we got there with two hours to spare. She packed a box of Baking Soda and worried if security might think its drugs. Selwyn Oaks and visited Bert. He is now walking but no word on what's wrong. More tests tomorrow. His house is rented out and he seems okay with never going back to it.
2013 Th - Anna over for Scrabble. I couldn't get "QUARTZ" onto the board. Report from Colleen in QL. Louise stopped in long enough to show us photos of family. Gave us homemade "Sleepy Hollow" chutney and jelly. Alhambra after supper.
