Sprucing up the neighborhood . . .




The bare lot where Côté's house was located is sporting a new look. They started digging and breaking up ledge about a month ago. Last week they poured the foundation and voilà, today the house is up. How amazing is man. And this is being done in the dead of winter, granted a mild one, but winter just the same. So this is another, "Wow!" moment.

Had a nice time with the Kiddo last night. We played indoor basket ball, I sitting on the new couch and he across from me in a big overstuffed recliner. We made circles with our arms and threw a soft, fabric ball into the armed basket. He won 34 to 32. He even shacked all the balls we missed. If he moved behind his chair he was going for the 3 point shot. What a blast. Big brother came home at 8 and I was back in Moosup at nine. Good day. Feeling fine. No complaints.
