Pick up time . . .

View of the train from the train.

I think I've actually fixed all the numbers on the cell phone and the land line. Since we can no longer just dial local numbers without the area code it's a job that had to be done. It always takes me a bit of time when I have to do these "techie" things but once I get on a roll I'm fast and good, maybe not mistake free though, so wait until Puppy's Pop tries one of the presets and he gets Timbuktu; I'll never hear the end of it!

We're off soon in the Saturn. I have to go to Sacred Heart and Puppy's Pop has to go pick up the Dodge Ram. It's got a new radiator now, only $330 installed by son-in-law. More than a pretty good deal. He likes the truck and thinks that his father-in-law should always drive a truck. Says "It's good for him." I'll stay in Groton and bring Sunshine home with me so he can bug Grampa for Riverview chicken. While speaking with Sunshine yesterday I made the comment, "Yes, my dear!" He had a retort, " I'm not a deer. I don't have four legs and antlers!" Of course I explained that he was my "dear" spelled d...e....a...r. He wanted no part of it. He cracks me up. I'll continue to bug him today just for "sh---ts and giggles."
