AUG...
I missed putting our day trip to Fort Peck in the July Blog. On July
26th Mike,Dad and I drove to Ft Peck to attend the
Theater...we met Doug and Fran there and saw the play “Best Little
Whore House in Texas” It was very well done. We went to dinner
with Doug/Fran and then left for home at 830p. Doug/Fran stayed over
in the historic hotel as they were celebrating Fran's birthday which
was the next day. It rained most of the way home so it was not a
pleasant drive.
We
started by celebrating Shay's 11th
Birthday on the 2nd
with Taco's at their house. Harvest started and stopped due to
weather or ripeness. We went to Great Falls on the 9th
& 10th
specifically to get new cell phones and a new account. Mike
graduated to his first 'smart phone' and we now have unlimited
texting. It is not so much fun to get new phones due to the learning
curve. We opted for the Motorola Droid Turbo due to it's great
battery. So far that has worked out well. My old Samsung phone
wouldn't hold a charge until noon! With the Droid we can go all day!
Of course we had to do all our other errand while in Great Falls.
We
made another trip back to Great Falls on the 19th
for Dad's doctor appt. It was with Dr. Williams who did his carotid
surgery....Well we found out he should have been seeing a
cardiologist instead. Luckily Dr. Williams was able to get him into
see one that day at the GTF Clinic – Dr. Castriz. He is to come
back in Sept for a Stress Test and a Carotid Ultrasound. Dad enjoyed
his overnight in Great Falls – looking through his clothes and
bringing some back. He also checked out the garage. We went to
Borries to eat dinner and drove home the next day.
I
refinished the TV stand. It was left in the house when we bought it.
It turned out well – looks like an new piece of furniture. I also
helped Fran us 'Green Apple' on her books shelves. Fran went to
Oregon to pick up her Mom and was gone for a week. During that time
I cooked a few times for while the guys were harvesting. We took
dinner to the field twice. We did more outside projects.
I
went to Havre with Denita on the 28th.
