Weekly
Update 7/7/2019
Again
this week I did almost nothing. I’ve been a little under the
weather. Nothing serious, just a cold I cannot seem to shake. So I
slept a lot, and watched a lot of tennis on tv, but didn’t get out
much.
I
did, however, go to the annual fourth of July festivities at colonial
Park Cemetery sponsored by the DAR. This year, Jane went with me. I
told her before we went that sometimes the program is really good and
other times it’s really lame. This was a lame year. A student at
Georgia Southern gave a brief recap of the Battle of Savannah during
the Revolutionary War. And that was it. A Pledge to the Flag, a
singing of the Star Spangled Banner, a prayer, placing of Wreathes at
the memorial to Button Gwinnett (signer of the Declaration of
Independence from Georgia and buried at Colonial Park) and it was
over.
Sorry to hear you have a cold. Hope you are better by now. We are still wandering around Wyoming. Last week we were in Casper and for the 4th, we went with friends to an old fashioned community band concert in the city park, and then returned to the RV park and watched the fireworks from there -no need to drive to the actual area and pay $10 to park and watch - we could see perfectly from the park. This week we are farther west and staying in a campground in a tiny town named Boulder, WY, but we will spend pretty much every day in Pinedale, where they are holding a Mountain Man Rendezvous. Lots of gorgeous mountain and river scenery and lots of western history too (more exploration, western trails, ranching, and beaver trapping/mountain men history. The museum we visited today was awesome - Fred and I spend several hours there learning.
