'Afternoon All: Just thought I would check in & let you know that I'm still alive. At least, that's what they tell me. DW & I are just enjoying our retirement. We both have slowed down considerably over the past several months, especially me. Issues with feet & hips mostly. Upper body strength remains good, but below the belt is another story.

We did get our garden going & everything doing well, so far. This year we put in tomatoes, cucumbers, pole beans, carrots, beets and white turnips. DW also planted her usual herbs. Been getting plenty of natural rain, so watering hasn't been needed & the next 2 or 3 days are forecast for sunshine & temps 75-80, just perfect growing conditions. Just waiting now for the first local strawberries. Lloyds Farm will likely be picking the first within the next 2-3 weeks. Really looking forward to them.

Grand daughter Marley's wedding is just 2 months away, so lots of anticipation building there. They had the bridal shower for her just 2 weeks ago & DW went down for that. Marley got quite a haul! Just about everything she would ever need for a kitchen. She & Matt have already bought a house in Pennsylvania & are getting it ready to move into. Really nice place in a wonderful neighborhood.

Not doing a whole lot of buying & selling glass anymore, as the market is pretty well shot on the older glass. Just enjoying the pieces that I kept & have displayed. I did the antique dealing for 50 years & that's more than enough of that. Just enjoying other things now (now that we're getting too old to do many of them). LOL!
