SATURDAY NIGHT IN LOUAVUL
Yes, they say it that way in Louisville, or Louieville as it is properly called, after King Louie. I have fallen so in love all over again with the hills and the lush green grass and trees here in the Ohio Valley that I wish that I lived here. I remember all the reasons that I said that I hated Florida before I moved there now that I am back in this verdant land. The cicadas are singing tonight and it is cool and all of the windows are open to let in the cool breeze. I'm enjoying a quiet evening while the girls are out to hear a band play. I opted to spend some alone time since I haven't been having any. Funny how I have become accustomed to lots of time alone in the last 4 years.
Tomorrow I am off to Evansville for a few days and then to Chicago for a long weekend and a Cubs game while there. That's the big time in Chicago. We have 4 complimentary tickets that Natalie won at the hospital in some giveaway. Good for us. So we will eat hotdogs and sing "Take me out to the ballgame," and I can truly sing, "I don't care if I never get back."
I'm enjoying every minute of my vacation. What a life!

I'm glad you're excited about the baseball game. I hope it won't be too hot. Just a clarification: I got the tickets because of my perfect attendance at morning report, which is one of our daily educational conferences. Just so everyone knows what a nerd I am.

Had Donna here today in Petersburg. It was so great seeing her. I don't even remember the last time she was here. I was even complimented when doing something I normally never do - I shared some of my home made sweet tea! LOL Yuh gotta know how hard it is to share something you're addicted to! :) She said it tasted just like Grandma DuKate's. Can't get any gooder than that! Got a lot of pictures and digital video recordings too. So glad to have gotten the chance. We all luv yuh Donna and hope you come back again soon! Bring Aunt Aline next time too! :) There's never enough time during one of your visits.

Glad to know that there'll be singing! We missed you tonight at the first choir rehearsal. We started with a bang - 17 singers! Not quite the cicada chorus, but it sure sounded good. Enjoy your time away.
