Hello on Tuesday Morning

Dear Friends,



Our final full day in Kansas went as planned. We had our last supper at a barbecue place in downtown Kansas. It was spectacular. I am so glad that Linda and I and this Curley family are not vegetarians. If you ever visit Kansas, you have to sample the various meats that are available, and we did!



In a few short hours, we will be flying back to the East Coat. Our one stop flight should have us arriving at Logan a little after 5 PM. Our son Kevin will be chilling with Max at his restaurant, and he will be waiting for us to call for the pickup. If you remember, his restaurant is 1.1 miles from the airport.



This trip has been so much fun. We started off with Max and his family from East Boston, and went to Kansas to be with his cousin Isabelle in Kansas. We now head back to Boston, and eventually to their now North Tewksbury home to be with Max through the weekend. Can you overdose dealing with grandchildren? I think not!



Life is so good right now, and I hope that it continues for a long time. I say this because I lost another baby boomer friend from the Berkshires the other day. He was the co-owner of the repair shop where we take our cars. A brain tumor was the cause of his eventual death which was diagnosed in November.

Like I said, don’t sweat the little stuff in life, you never know when you are going to meet your maker. Surround yourself with family and friends which the Curley’s constantly do!



I did watch some sports yesterday. I tried watching the Kansas City Royals on their opening day yesterday. The reporters have been talking about how the Royals are going to improve their prone ways this year. Five players tried to catch in infield pop during the first inning of yesterday’s game, but they couldn’t catch the ball. They eventually lost the game by an 8 to 4 score.

The Red Sox are coming to Kansas this weekend. Mike and some friends are going to one of the games this weekend. If we planned out rip a little better, I would have been going with them.

I will catch the Red Sox vs Yankee game in North Tewksbury this evening.



My bird feeding experience in Kansas has been put on hold. The wind has been lifting the cover off the bird feeder, and dumping the whole container of seed on the ground. It is not squirrels doing the thing because we haven’t seen any squirrels during the several times which we have visited Kansas.



Well, I am going to grab some breakfast, and do some packing. We are departing their home at 10:15 AM. It will be sad to say goodbye at the airport.





Have a great Tuesday.

Ours will be a fun one for sure! The Curley Lad
