Last Sunday was Grasshopper No.5’s birthday. Your Mom and I helped her celebrate earlier this month. I’m sure that she was flooded with birthday cards and celebritory tweets. Happy Birthday No.5. Many hugs.
Your Mom and I attended the UW Badgers game and watched them beat the Minnesota football team and retain the coveted Paul Bunyon Ax for the ninth consecutive year. You might ask who cares about an Ax! There was plenty of sunshine, warm weather and the 3rd quarter “jump around”. Grandson’s Grant and Mitchell (both well over 6 feet tall) let your short Mom sit between them. She looked up! They looked down! I wish had had my camera.
I got my snow-blower out this morning. Yep, I used the word “snow”. Menards had a sale on Pennzoil motor oil with an 11% rebate. Add in a high resistor spark plug and I’m good to go for another year. Now I’ve got to teach your Mom on how to run it.
Grasshopper No.1 made more movies available with Wi-Fi download. Your Mom and I are now in home movie overload. The Fall season tends to do that. We get pre-occupied with new network programming along with football. Thank you No.1
Grasshopper No.1 did share some chocolate toffee (from a slab of toffee). She and my favorite son-in-law bought it on Mackinaw Island several weeks ago. Mackinaw was shutting down for the season and everything was on sale. Even sale prices on fudge and toffee are mind-boggling. The toffee was calorie free.
Stay warm.
Love,
Dad
