SNOW!

I had just gotten my breakfast made, sat down at the computer with it, turned on the computer and TV when the weather came on.  The next thing I knew I heard the weatherman say "the buses are on snow routes at Castle Rock"  I grabbed the camera and headed for the back door.  Sure enough there was a trace of snow on the shop and the grass.
I notice the deck rail looked like it had ice, so I walked over, felt it and sure enough it was solid ice.  Then I noticed the deck was pretty slick, so I carefully walked back into the house.  I puttered away most of the morning on the computer making up another CD of Vera's reunion for a classmate in Phoenix, AZ.  When I finished that, we went down, mailed it and went to Bredfield's for some paint to do the gear doors with.  While I was in the Post Office, Vera's Kindle quit.  When we got home, we decided the battery is getting old, I did some checking online and they can be changed.  I found one with more capacity, ordered it, so in a few days it should be good as new.  I had a call from Barry after asking him a question about a picture he sent me.  We had a nice talk, then I headed over to see what kind of excitement there was at the Robinson's.
I had a great visit with Dianne and the twins.  Not long after I got back home, Bev called, it was nice getting all up to date with her.  I got a set of landing gear in the mail for the Bronco today, so after dinner I went out to see if they would work.  I had to modify the nose gear a little, but they are going to look good.  Just after I finished that, Emmy and Parker showed up with Emmy's laptop.  The arrow keys and the Z key were not working.  I blew them out with air and cleaned under them with a brush, but no luck.  I remembered a wireless keyboard I had that we were not using anymore, so I started hunting up all the pieces for it.  I finally found the receiver, everything worked, so I took it back to her.  Boy this day sure flew by!
