Cloudy , Overcast, running into old acquaintances, and hockey, nice relaxing day.

Where are we today ?

Plattsville Ontario

        Pretty mild again today and no wild or rain, but no sunshine either. Just kind of an overcast day, up to about 60f. Got my morning walkabout town then at 8:30 took Suzie to Kitchener and dropped her at her Chiropractor. 
        While she was in there I whipped over to the Wholesale Club in Waterloo. I picked up our Winter supply of coffee enough for about 200 pots all individually vacuum sealed pouches. We have been drinking this coffee since I had my restaurant (from 1989 to 1999). This is a restaurant supply store that is open to the public. Used to be National Grocers when I started going there. While I was there ran into a lady (Doris) who was there way back then and moved to the new store. She still works there and I don't think she has changed at all. Have not seen her for a couple years. So we got to chatting, my how time flies. Of course I was a few minutes late picking Suzie up, she just knew I musta ran into somebody. Its hard for me not to run into people I have met over the years, after 10 years at the Bus depot, 7 years driving taxi part time, union steward for 5 years, My Restaurant for 10 Years and with the Optimist club for 18 years, that a lot of public exposure.

That's Doris as bubbly as ever

         Back home for a light lunch and another walkabout town, ran into a few more people, did some reading for a bit but just too chilly to sit outside very long. At 4 o'clock Suzie made a quick trip  up to New Hamburg to see her Mom and Dad, while I whipped up supper.
        Tonight some BBQ chicken thighs, acorn squash with maple syrup, and our salad, did the trick. I cooked up our last 2 cobs of corn to take off the cobs and freeze for another time.

        Then at 7 pm I can walk to the Plattsville Arena (about 15 minutes) and watch Grandson number one get a workout with his hockey practice. Suzie back to New Hamburg for a blue grass concert that she wants to go to with them while she can at the retirement home.

         Back home by 8:20 (nice night for a walkabout town)  and Suzie at 8:40.  Time to put our feet up and relax for a bit and will see what tomorrow brings.
         Thanks once again for taking a peek and hope you had a wonderful day too.
