Saturday & Sunday Corrie runs errands, tends to garden & partially empties RV. Dan tries mowing overgrown wet lawn w/o much success, washes RV & Toad, empties all the cargo holds & overhead cab of RV so that RV can be parked in shop/RV building. Monday, 18NOV, more rain – apparently we missed the unusual dry first two weeks of November?
The rest of November seemed to be nothing but unending rain, & the yard never drained or dried outL Not much accomplished other than errands, medical & dental appointments, trying to get educated on new RV, gardening, volunteering at Habitat for Humanity, etc. But there were two other events of note during the month:
First on Thursday, 21NOV, Dan had lunch with 9 of his classmates from US Coast Guard Academy class of 1974. Over the last few years Dan & other classmates that live within driving distance of Seattle (sometimes individuals drive up from Oregon) informally get together for impromptu lunches (see below link for last luncheon). This time lunch and reminiscing (aka lying) was at Scotts Bar & Grill in Edmonds (recommended).

Next event, was Tuesday, 26NOV, catching the Kingston ferry to visit kids & grandkids for turkey day. That evening was the decoration of their Xmas tree.
Wednesday Corrie & Rebecca prep’ed house & commenced cooking for an early turkey day dinner. Like last year Rebecca’s work schedule conflicts with Thanksgiving day mealL Early that afternoon Dan heads to Kingston ferry to pick up his niece Marisa & her sons, Jaxson & Eli, who will join us for the early thanksgiving dinner.
After recovering from an excellent dinner, we play bingo & then just veg out; while younger kids play beyblades. Thursday (turkey day) Rebecca heads to work & not much done. Later that morning Dan takes Marisa & boys back to ferry; leftovers for dinner.
Friday morning Corrie does some black Friday shopping & then back to ferry & home.
