This is a rerun of our "Jon and Jane at the Pearly Gates" picture. We took it last July @ St. Peter, Mn's public display of questionable public spending. Jon thought we should use it on our Christmas card. Plans have changed. Expect a picture of us at the beach with a "wish you were here caption". Eight more days until Ft. Myers!!
It has been a cold week in Lake Wobegon. We were jolted into winter with wind chills in the -15 degree range and 6 inches of snow yesterday. One night, while we cuddled before falling asleep, Jon remarked this was like we would be cuddled (or perhaps huddled ) together in our columnbarium. Our columnbarium is in a stone wall out on the prairie in central Minnesota. It didn't seem like it was going to be warm and cozy to me. The first words out of my mouth, "It will be colder than hell there." That is kind of a good thing--colder than hell, I mean. With our planned cremation, at least we will be getting a warm sendoff. When we were at the Mall of America last week I stopped at the "As Seen On TV" shop and bought a space bag to store our goose down comforter. They are over-priced, but at least you do not have to pay shipping and handling when you buy at the store. Maybe we can compress that comforter in the space bag and have our kids stuff it in the space in our columnbarium. Maybe you can take it with you.
