A long line of Lunches

Yesterday we went down to Seattle to have lunch with friends. A coupl10e of them live a block away and the others in North Seattle. Why a "Long Line of Lunches"? We have now been doing this for over 21 years. That's a lot of lunches. About 5 or six a year. We shoot for every two months but I guess the average has been nearer five. So about 105 lunches with so much laughter if you could use it for fuel I am sure we could power a moon launch.

This was originally a church group at our old church in Seattle, Elim Baptist. It was supposed to meet a couple of times then disband and we would form a new group of people within the church. Well, we did that. Then met again anyway after our other groups. We just kept on going even after most have left that church.

Even though we have been laughing and sharing for over two decades we have no intention of stopping anytime soon. It is good fellowship and good friendships. Next time it is our turn to host the group.

The drive down yesterday was quite pleasant. The sun was out for part of the drive. We did a short stop in Barnes and Nobles books in Northgate on the way in. Bought a whole bunch of books. I needed a couple for AZ and Ina needed some to fill in the blanks while I am gone.

Coming home we were anticipating a bit of snow as the weather man had been predicting it. Yes there was snow. Just not a lot of it. It was very spotty. We would drive along on very dry pavement then suddenly be in a snow storm. But nothing was sticking. Thank you very much.

Last night we had a bunch of hail. Woke us up as it was hurled against the sliding door in the bedroom by the wind. Now it is sunny and cool. About 42°. Big fluffy clouds to the south showing the convection currents in the atmosphere. Dead calm wind wise. The water is almost glassy. A good day.
