We drove from Oswego to Rochester and arrived at Jack
Wenrich's apartment at the appointed hour of noon.
Judy was there, too. We chatted for a little while and
then drove to Olive's by the Canal for lunch. It is a
Greek Restaurant and was quite good. Jack and I
had Guiness as an old custom. We had a very
pleasant lunch and it was especially nice to
spend some time with Judy and hear about the
wedding. Chris had told me something about
it, but Judy told me more. It sounds like a
great time.
After lunch we spent some time at Jack's until
about 3 PM. I knew he was tired so we left.
After we left Judy called to ask if I had lost
my sun glasses which I had just been looking
for. We returned for them in time to run
into Jeff who had come to pick up Judy. Judy
had expressed interest in coming to Boulder so
I extended to Jeff, also, the invitation. I hope
they do come.
After we left Jack we drove about 5 miles to
Mendon Ponds which is a county park. I
hadn't been there in about 60 years, but it
hasn't changed a bit. We walked about a
mile through the woods. It was great to have
a chance to get out and walk. I have been
very stiff because of sitting in the car so
much.
After our walk we sat in the car reading
waiting to hear from the Owens. They
were returning from the Adirondaks so it
was not clear when they would show up.
Ann called about 5 to say they were about
an hour a way and then would stop at
Wegmans to pick up something to
put on the grill for dinner and would be
home about 6:30 PM.
We showed up at 6:30 and they were unloading
their car.
We had a lovely dinner though I was too tired and
also drank too much wine. I did sleep well though
for the first time in three nights.
This morning we all slept in. They were tired, too.
After breakfast we went over to the canal and
walked a long the canal for a couple of miles. It
was great to get another walk in. My joints feel
great for the first time in weeks. We decided
to skip lunch and have ice cream cones. We
had had ice cream at the same place yesterday
with Jack and Judy. A great place with huge
scoops of home made ice cream..
We returned to their house and all was quiet.
Ann, as it turned out had laid down just for
a minute and slept until 5 when we were
supposed to leave for dinner because she
had to go to her Recorder session at 7.
We went to JoJos for dinner. Robert and I
had a Louisiana gumbo which was great, but
we could only eat about half. We all came
home with much food. They'll eat for
a couple of days on the leftovers.
We head for Washington, DC tomorrow.
