Thursday, I went to C’s house for dinner and we watched Doctor Who and other stuff on TV. Carolyn called about coming back through Roanoke on their way from vacation. I thought that was a good idea. C came to my house Friday and Chuck & Carolyn took us to dinner at Wildflour. C showed them some of the boxes he made before he left, then we played Scat and looked at old pictures.
Lois came over early Saturday morning to see them before they left, then we had a real breakfast and went yard saling. I went to her house to help pull old ground cover out of her front flowerbed. This is some kind of evergreen that sprawls out flat instead of growing up like a tree. It was easy to get out except for the roots, which are still there. Her neighbor Nancy came over to advise her about gardening and we all went to Lowe’s to look at what kind of tree to get for her back yard. We also went to Nancy’s friend’s house to see her trees and tour her beautiful house. Nancy took us to the house behind Lois’s to see how visible her back windows are from there. Lois is all stressed about what to plant and getting it done ASAP and getting permission from the homeowners association and shielding her back windows and putting the cut brush into the right trash containers on the right days, etc.
Sunday was the planning meeting. We went over each person’s area for feedback. The convention went very well this year! We were all pleased with it. Next was nominations for next year’s board, and I accepted the nomination this year. Melissa, Keith, Liz & I went to Bellacino’s for dinner and George & Tim & his wife and baby met us there.
