  • INDOOR/OUTDOOR THERMOMETER AND "GRAVITY"
Lyn and Joe did as I did long, long ago and threw away their old indoor/outdoor thermometer when they couldn't get it to register. I found out you have to put the batteries in the sensor and the readout unit in in a certain way. Live and learn.

  • BELATED BIRTHDAY GIFT #2
I got Joe a really good book about the Alamo. Unfortunately, it was the only copy at the bookstore, so I may have to order me one. I love all things Alamo.

  • TUNED WINDCHIMES
I got these cool windchimes for Lyn that go bong, bong, bong instead of tinkle, tinkle, tinkle. Neither one of us like the tinkly ones.

Lyn, Joe, and I went to their favorite Mexican food restaurant in Hamilton for Lyn's birthday. I think the name was Ortega's.

  • CHUCK AMUCK
I also got a book about the career of one of my favorite catroonists, Chuck Jones, of Looney Toons fame. This guy did Bugs, Daffy, Foghorn Leghorn, Martin the Martian, etc. What a talent.
