Fall colors at Alum Creek . . . 




October 28 . . . . "The Clampetts invade Westerville" . . . Granny & Jed made an old-fashioned trek to the "Old Bag (appropriate analogy) of Nails" in Westerville for a fun Halloween party with vittles and white lightnin'. "We even showed the youngin's how to dance, didn't we Jed ?" . . . "Jed, you quit lookin at that naughty nurse . . . she'd hurt you"!!! 


October 27 . . . "Celebrity Ghost 5K" . . . It was a  cold, dark, eerie night . . raindrops soaking the earth; classic Halloween setting. Rose Anne and I were scheduled to participate in the Westerville 5K with the 180 plus runners. As the time approached we decided that for us, this year, would be a . . . . "NON-EVENT". It was the first time we have registered for an event and not participated.  However, we were not alone . . . only 86 runners participated and both of us would have finished in the top three of our Age group.  We did get the shirt for our NON-EFFORT!

October 13 & 14. . . Nana & Popo visit Henry in Saginaw! Rose Anne and I had a great visit with Henry, Wes and Jennifer taking in Bronner's Christmas Store in Frankenmuth, celebrating Rose Anne's Birthday with family, and following Sunday Mass with a breakfast at "Fuzzy's". No, the fresh loaf of Fuzzy's signature cinnamon bread didn't last long! Henry showed Nana all the fun, new tricks he has learned. He even modeled his new ND outfit for us. 

"Come on Nana,
let's climb the stairs again"
"Can you blow out all those candles, Nana?"

"Go Irish!"
"Playing is fun with Nana"
"I love Fuzzys!"
"Nana, you are funny"

Hey Dad, pass the spinach!

"Happy Henry"
"I'll wear my monkey costume
at Halloween, but not that monkey hat!
Michigan fall colors
You can get lost in Bronners!
