Mary's Grandson Mike's Visit

Mike came to visit Gram June 26-27. He took Megabus, a low cost daily express bus service in the US and Canada (an alternative to Greyhound or expensive air travel), down from Chicago. She enjoyed introducing him to friends at dinner at Summer Trace:

His visit included a game of Kings-in-the-Corner at Betsy & Phil's:

The game took an interesting twist when her cards ended up in her card holder so that she couldn't see the numbers!

As Mike was leaving, we took a photo on the front porch. Here's Phil, Mary and Mike:

Mike chatted with Gram on the way to the Indy airport where, as a pilot, he was able to catch a ride back to Des Moines on an Integrated cargo plane.

They had to wait for a little "weather" to pass before they could take off.

Out to Play

Phil and Mom and I got out Sunday afternoon, June 22, 2008 to enjoy a play. Carmel Community Players performed Rumors, a Neil Simon comedy, at University High School on W. 116th St. Mom and Phil enjoyed a chat at intermission. Mom remarked how pretty the sky was over Coxhall Gardens as we drove back to Summer Trace.

We've had a quiet June so far

We've had a quiet June so far but will get to some concerts in the park soon. Here's Mary sharing an article on a local car show with Phil:

Debbie's Emmee - Visit with Mary May 21st

Mom's Noblesville PEO friends, Ina (left) and Debbie (in pink), had a visit with Mom May 21st in the "Soda Shop" at Summer Trace. Debbie's sweet little dog, Emmee, came along and was the icing-on-the-cake of a very thoughtful visit.

Mom loves puppies.

And what a cute puppy she is!
