A classmate and friend, Carole, came out for a visit in the late afternoon and then I warmed up one of the leftover meals I had frozen and brought along. You can get lazy when you're alone. But I supplemented it with a slice of wonderful fresh bread that Carole's husband Marv had baked and a corn salad I had made from fresh sweet corn. As usual at Beed's, it was a lovely sunset and worth a walk to the dam.
Sometime this afternoon, my old co-worker and friend, Marcia, will arrive along with her husband. They will be spending a couple of nights on their way to northwest Iowa. I appreciate the slightly lower temperatures although it sounds like the humidity will hang around, but will definitely have to get in my traditional walk around the lake. Meanwhile, another cup of coffee with some veggie pancakes and cherry coffee cake will meet my immediate needs.
