10/19/16 - On 10/18, Daniel, Mary Ann and I left at 7:15am to meet a bus to go with a group to Lancaster, Pennsylvania to see Samson at Sight and Sound.  There were 32 people on the bus.  When we got there, I knew the bus driver so it was great to catch up for a few minutes.  We had a nice trip up, the play was fantastic and well done.  We then stopped off for a buffet lunch before heading back to Milford, Delaware.  We took a picture outside of the theatre:

10/17/16 - 10/14, Daniel and Mary Ann had invited friends and family for the evening to enjoy a bonfire, roast hot dogs, a potluck and end the evening with a hay ride. I have been told there were about 65 in attendance.  The food was set up on the side of the bonfire and the picnic tables were around the bonfire.  Of course, I was sitting in my chair as close to the fire as possible with coat, hat and gloves to stay warm.  It was a great evening even tho it was rather cold.  On of the individuals in attendance was from Virginia and I know her well so we had a very nice time.  The gal (Roxanne and her aunt Esther) also had rented a beach house for the weekend.  A picture of the beginning of the bonfire:

10/15 - It is Mary Ann's birthday, son Lem and wife Jessica stopped by with also Jessica's mother Lynn, then Mary Ann had friends that stopped by for a visit that also were from Virginia.  I had an invitation to go to the beach house and visit with Roxanne and Aunt Esther.  It was a very nice beach house and a beautiful view of the bay.  Since it was almost a full moon, I was able to capture this picture:

We also went out for pizza (Grotto's).  It was delicious.  I had a very nice evening.

10/16 - Went to church and they had a potluck since it was appreciation day for the leadership team.  They had several different soups, salad and dessert.  Otherwise, the day was quiet.

10/11/16 - Once again it is time to get caught up.

10/2, I had another dentist appointment to get a second opinion regarding my upper dentures that are holding on with a thread.  I soon learned that it would be about $2000 to get new ones!!  The first dentist wanted to take off my bars and put in new pegs to my implants and that would be another $1000!!  The second dentist did not even suggest that and even told me that the bars were solid and looking good!!  I was delighted.

10/6, I had my annual mammogram and learned that there is a new procedure out call 3D mammogram so was told Medicare does pay for it so I decided to do that.  Since the physician's assistant wasn't sure if she felt a small lump or dense tissue, they also decided to do an ultrasound.  I have not gotten the final result since they want to compare with last year's mammogram that was done in San Diego.  So I have to do the waiting game.

10/7, I am not sure which day I helped Mary Ann freeze applesauce. She also has been putting lima beans in the freezer so I have helped shell those.  My niece, Deborah and I have been putting puzzles together in between other activities.  I do have part of another lap size afghan to finish but am waiting awhile before I finish that.  Also, Daniel's neighbor works at an RV place and he has been over and sealed the roof of the RV since we have been having a lot of rain.  He did take a quick look at my sound system but that will take some time so it will be done later.

10/8 - Daniel and I left for York City.  Daniel had a lot of meat (beef) left from his last year's supply and wanted to donate it to a mission church/school.  We had a traveling time and met up with a distance cousin who helped us unload and then we all went out for lunch before we headed back to Delaware.  We had rain all the way home.

10/10 - I had another dentist appointment to get the impressions done so the process has begun!  Daniel dug sweet potatoes last night.

Today,  I have made a sweet potato to eat for lunch.  I need to do some cleaning and then Mary Ann has some plans tonight so I will help with dinner and sit with the ladies that she takes care of.  So just an easy day.
