Anniversary

I am still having problems getting pictures to upload. I wanted to show you a picture of the 4 couples who came to our door this afternoon with pots and pans and lids and banged away to tell us this was a shiveree and to come out and kiss to celebrate our anniversary. We really had to laugh. In all our 61 years of marriage we had never had a shiveree. This evening we went in to Corpus Christi and had a Greek dinner at one of our favorite restaurants. Lots more fun than the night we drove on sheer ice from Freeport to our hotel in Chicago in 1945 One of our computer experts is in camp now and I hope she can help me figure out why the pictures aren't loading.
Our Christmas was busy and fun with dinners at the central house both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and two church Services Sunday and I sang a duet with one of our sopranos at the evening service. Things should quiet down a bit now, but there is a gathering planned for New Year's Eve. Have fun and keep us up on your doings.

Down south

We arrived at Wilderness Lakes Resort on Sat. Dec. 2 Our good neighbors had pulled our trailer into place and hooked it up. We had chilly rainy weather for several days, but today it got up to 75 so we are enjoying that. I have tried to upload a picture of Maggie sleeping on our bed, but I am having trouble with that, but i will try again and see what happens. We were not only welcomed by friends here at the camp but at church yesterday where to my surprise they sang one of my introits at the beginning of the service. They have urged me to come and sing with the Chrismas special music they are doing on Sunday. I hope you are all enjoying preparing for the coming holidays. Keep in touch with us and I will try to get pictures to work eventually.
