Friday Oct. 16th

I sure do wish to thank Jerry and Carol for sending me the beautiful Fall leaves, it was fun trying to guess which trees they came off of, Acorn or as Bobby says"Akern" tree, Maple, Walnut? not sure. Oh, your check is in the mail for the leaves, I sure hope it doesn't get lost....I through them in the air just to watch them drift slowly down as if falling from a tree, and oh, I then had to get a rake and rake my leaves, I had a nice big pile and was wandering if the Mgrs. would mind if I burned my pile of leaves...well, I decided to just bag them and take them to the dumpster.

We had a huge turnout for our Social Hour, probably the last one in the pool room now we will have to have them in the big hall. This morning the donuts were provided by the Office. Maybe someone will step up for next Friday...wishful thinking.

Some Fall humor

Old Age Memory

Some Snowbirds both in their 80's, visit their doctor and complain of short-term memory loss. After listening, the doctor suggests that they may want to write down the things they would like to remember. The couple agree that this would be a good idea.

A few days go by and the husband and wife are in bed late one evening when the wife says she could go for a bowl of ice cream. The husband volunteers to go down to the kitchen and dish it up.

"Do you think you should write it down like the doctor said?" the wife asks.

"No, I think I can remember a bowl of ice cream," replies the husband, as he heads downstairs.

After a few minutes the husband comes through the door and presents his wife with a platter of bacon and eggs.

"I knew this would happen!" she exclaimed. "You forgot my toast!"

Oh how I miss the Fall colors, I saw on T.V. where some entepreneur was gathering 3 or 4 leaves and treating them and will send people the leaves for a small sum...$50.00 maybe, I can't remember, but I don't miss them that much   LOL

Ed and Sharon Tice provided the donuts this morning. Sharon is having dental work down here.
We are expecting scattered showers today, we could use a nice little rain. although the mosquitos are really bad from previous rains.

Folks are coming in now. I see Tic  games in the evenings and "31" is starting this coming Monday, Ales in charge. Also a good turnout for Rummy every morning.

Cards up to sign are for Patty Lamp and family, death of Gordon,  and Art Bloom fell and broke a hip.
I don't remember if I mentioned Dean Ricke's oldest Brother from Minn. passed away.

I just went out and picked up grapefruit which is falling daily off our tree and also fruit falling off the orange tree but not quite as bad, oh, we also had a very good crop of pecans on our pecan tree, I looked up and saw clusters of pecans all over the tree, but there is not one pecan left. The Squirrels came every day and ate them and carried  many off. Last year we had a small crop but the Squirrels did not come, they stripped us the year before tho. I have never seen so many fruit trees in the park with fruit falling on the ground, most have a hole poked in them but a tree in Gibbs yard has oranges that  are splitting a falling atleast 5 to 10 a day.
