Brother Bob and Beth drove me home after I’d spent five days at their house. Although the day was cold, it was clear and sunny. What a pleasant drive it was! I didn’t pay attention to the time, but I think it takes about three hours one way. I quickly made a tuna casserole, heated frozen vegetables, and cut up an apple. Eating gave them a chance to relax a little before making that long drive home.

I don’t remember how we got on the subject of ceiling fans, but I learned something I didn’t know. Fans have a switch so that you can change the direction from clockwise to counter-clockwise. I must be the last person on earth to find that out. Going counter-clockwise is best for hot weather, and going the other way helps in cold weather. Before we got here, I had already decided I’d rather have the fan set for hot weather. I’m not really enthusiastic about having a fan stirring the air in the winter. While I put lunch on the table, Bob checked all the fans by turning them on briefly. Every one was set for summer. Good! We walked around the house and spotted the switches just for the fun of it.

What a wonderful visit had had with them!
