Tues 26 Nov

Michael starts today as a salesperson at Frank's Hardware. Should be a good opportunity for him with a well-established local business. If he chooses to stay for more than a year, he can even get health insurance. Wish him good luck. Last night we had the pleasant surprise of a drop-in visit from Desmond! He is bringing his wife, Su and baby girl, Bethany for lunch today. He looks very much the same and is happy to be visiting back in Point. Wow, I won tickets to the Lorie Line concert tonight at the Grand. I signed up on a whim as we were driving out of town one day when I saw the ad on Mitchell Piano Works' marquee. The first winner they drew could not attend and turned the tickets back and they drew my name this morning so we will see the concert for free! Very nice lunch with Desmond, Su, and Bethany. Michael even managed to stop over on his lunch break just before they left. They will be driving down to Madison tomorrow so we gave them your contact information. Maybe you'll get to see them too if all works out. BTW, Michael was pretty pumped about the new job. He even gets holiday pay on Thanksgiving with the day off.
