"We Got Company Coming Up the Road!"

Company's Coming
Evelyn and Gary arrived the middle of the afternoon!  It is about a 5-6 hour trip from their home on the western side of the state to here.  They pulled their fifth-wheel rv and are parked next to us.

They both have appointments with Sarah, our daughter-in-law, who is a Doctor of Audiology, tomorrow afternoon. 

Beautiful Fall Leaves
Gary and Evelyn both commented what a beautiful drive it to here was with all of the brightly colored trees.  They had been to Branson last week, and said the drive this direction had many more colors than SW Missouri.

We drove to Poplar Bluff and back this morning and admired all of the fall colors in the trees.

About six o'clock this evening a hard wind from the west brought a couple of hours or so of hard rain.  I am sure the combination of wind and rain brought down a lot of the leaves.  The best part of the evening was 1.44" of rain in those two-three hours. 

St. Louis Cardinals
The same rain storm that was here delayed the St. Louis Cardinals' game in the seventh inning.     After the restart the Cards held on to the lead and won the game.  They are ahead in the series 2-1--just two more wins!

Bath Towels
Obviously I have not shopped for bath towels for many, many years.  We had decided that the ones we were using were worn out!  Ouch, the prices for new ones shocked both Glen and me!

Our daughter, Trisha
 
Trisha, who lives near Ft. Smith AR, shared with us the past few days that she is taking flying lessons!  She sounds so excited when she tells us what she is learning.
