Robert's Picture Challenge
(Show you something that is relaxing to me)

Pictured above is the most relaxing thing for me in the house. It is , of course, my walk in bathtub. Not only does it have a door and a seat. It has wonderful spa jets. That means it’s just like going out and resting in a fancy hot tub. The jets can be set to give a wave effect which is very relaxing. Just think of all the money I save because I don’t need to go out to a spa or to a motel hot tub. It even has a feature that allows me to put in just a few inches of water and massage my tired feet.
My dragons like it because they can come with me. They don’t like to be seen in public.
The only thing wrong with it is I bought one with a door that opens in. This takes more water than one with a door that opens out as you need room for the door to get by your legs. The walk in we had in Crystal had a door that opened out. The only thing wrong with that is it could be opened with a full tub and make quiet a mess as my son Patrick proved.
In any case door in or door out. It is very relaxing.

News from Pigeon Falls

The little town in my basement where the trains still run, dragons fly, and life is back to normal.

Yesterday Pigeon Falls had a moment of silence to remember the attack on September 11. For that time you could have heard a pin drop anywhere in Pigeon Falls. This town like any small town may have its problems but most people care deeply about the country.

Russel McGregor stopped in to Nancy’s on his way to work this morning to get his thermos filled. Nancy said it was cold enough for his pink shirt. He looked sort of sad and said “ I don’t have that shirt anymore. Bonnie gave it away to St. Vincent De Paul four months ago while I was out. She never liked that shirt. As soon as I found out I went right down to St. Vincent De Paul but they had already sold it. I wasn’t surprised it was a great shirt. When the twins get old enough we’ll take them to Disney World and I’ll get another. She was pregnant and having a rough time so I couldn't’t get mad.”
Poor Nancy ! Now she knows the rumor that Russel is having an affair isn’t true . She had helped spread that rumor
How do you stop a rumor once it gets going?

Wrap Up
In the morning another retired pastor and his wife visited. We spent a nice hour and a half in good fellowship. We just don't get enough visitors. I called my sister and let her know our cousin Mary was back in the hospital. We had a nice conversation. Then I visited blogs that were doing Robert's challenge. After that I read and then I brought St. Mark's website up to date with the Sunday's bulletin. Found out I'm listed as doing a children's sermon. Pennie said not to worry I'm a backup.I'm worried. I then visited my links. Now I need a breathing treatment.
