weekly update 6/30/2013

This past week was a time of pretty much doing nothing. So, there isn't much to report.

I watched a lot of the Wimbledon tennis on tv. There were many upsets, and several top players are gone. I always maintained that I didn't really care about watching the favorites, but just enjoyed seeing “good tennis”. But I found that it isn't as interesting to watch two unseeded, unheard of players battle each other as it is to watch someone known. There is one more week of the tournament, so I will be watching as much as I can again this week.

It was also the week that saw me say good by to good friends Lisa & Dave who traveled back to their home in Wales. They will be gone until October, when they return to Savannah. I met them at the Rail for one last pint of Guinness before they left on Thursday, and Anne Nedd & Kay joined us. We also all went out for Mexican food after we visited at the pub. I will really miss the Winklers.

I did my regular tours at Davenport House, and I sat at the visitor center guest at Bonaventure Cemetery both Saturday and Sunday mornings. There was a huge YMCA gymnastics competition in town, and there were some families who came both to DH and BC, but I don't know if they were part of the people in town for the tournament.

Although there's a holiday next week, I don't have much on my calendar. It's looking like another slow week ahead, so I don't know if I will have anything to tell next week, either. I hope that you are all enjoying a more exciting summer so far than I am.
