Lise!!

Daughter Lise is staying for three weeks, and we began the visit with our customary meal at Culver’s. This restaurant, known for frozen custard, is near the airport. We all adore their Concrete Mixer – frozen custard mixed with two additions of your choice. You can add fruit, bits of chocolate, various candies, Brownie bites, or syrups.

Lise made an emergency visit to a shoe store, looking for pull-on sneakers. She is going to have a hip replaced, and because of the damaged joint, she cannot tie her left shoe. What luck! She found shoes she loves on the last day the store was open. The next day they were closed for several weeks for remodeling.

Here is a different view of Jonathan Creek. I am not able to walk to the creek right now, but we ate at a barbecue place upstream from my usual destination. I hope you can see the creek from Lise’s shoulder to David’s chin.

We began moving furniture back on the front porch after 2/3 of it was painted. When the sun goes down, it is usually quite pleasant to sit there.

Logan suggested a fast-paced game of Rat Race. As an observer, I realized the game was really heating up when both Lise and Logan stood up to play. I doubt they realized the camera was aimed at them. Even if they did, they are used to it.
