Entertainment


I walked down the highway to the Market today and spent a couple of  hours  listening  to some entertainment there. It was a warm, although very windy, day and a good day to just sit outside, soak up some sunshine, and listen to some nice music. In the afternoon, I caught a ride with a friend out to Mercedes. We discovered a Drive-In while we were out and about so one night we will go out to the Drive-In to watch movies. I haven’t  been to a drive–in movie for decades so I am very much looking forward to it. I checked it out on the internet and on Tuesday nights there is only a $5.00 charge per car to see 2 movies. A very good deal.
This evening we walked over to the Rec Hall to listen to  Michael J.Thoma. Michael is from Iowa and is currently doing a tour down here.

He played a mixture of music by popular artists and then played a few of his own songs. He had a John Denver type style and my favorite of the evening  was the John Denver song," It’s Good to Be Back Home Again”.  Unfortunately, there was a football game on tonight and many of  the people here at the Park chose the football game over a couple hours of music. For those of us who came out it was nice to have some entertainment within a few minutes walk rather than having to drive somewhere.

A cold front is supposed to move in tomorrow so we will be looking at cold weather again for most of this  week with overnight temperatures going down to as low as 2 C. Brrrr!  Anna had a repairman here today to check out our furnace and our hot water tank as both need fixing. Unfortunately, it is going to be very costly.

Keep warm.
