Aunt Sassy and I enjoyed homemade hash browns and told bad jokes.

SIX!

Keith got Wordle in four.

I concur, a very nice review.

I got a new one today, too - I'll try sharing that particular one on some Disney groups since it's pretty Disney-centric. I don't know the reviewer personally outside of Facebook.

5.0 out of 5 stars Let's get together with Richard Sherman and Bruce Kimmel in this splendiferous memoir!

Bruce Kimmel comes through once again, with a lovely memoir of his "great big beautiful" friendship with legendary Disney songwriter, Richard Sherman. A sweet and moving story of a deep friendship between two creative artists who sang, played and celebrated together and also provided comfort during the challenges of growing older. I am forever grateful to Mr Kimmel for celebrating Richard Sherman, a wonderful man whose talent has been, in my opinion, taken for granted by some folks. Every Disney fan should have this book on their shelf and every music lover must. When you finish this book you will really know Richard Sherman, and you may even get the urge to step outside and feed a bird or fly a kite. Thank you, Bruce Kimmel, for letting us share in the joy of a very special friendship.

Got my first review of the new book. I know of June, a long time Texas food writer, but I don't know her personally.

That's great, John G!  Congratulations!

Actually June’s comment was a blurb my publisher didn’t tell me about. Your excellent review was the first one. So, many thank.

SIX!

I’ll have the lot.

Very nice review for DR John G.'s book, DR Freddie.

[singdaw]

Forgot to mention that we watched The Life of Chuck last night. Interesting film.

[singdaw]

Ate at a friend's tonight. Homemade gumbo and salad. Strawberry rhubarb pie with vanilla ice cream for dessert.

I'm finally home from the annual PFLAG Olympia picnic.  There were quite a few people there and everyone ate and chatted and had a grand time.

Are there photos?

I helped my sister set up and take down everything.  It was quite warm by the time everything was done around 4:45.

[singdaw]

Great potential work news from DR elmore3003!

[singdaw]

I think not.

I didn't take any, but my sister did.  I have to resize them first.  Hang on.

These were hung at the back of the picnic area:

And here's a picture of the picnic area that we got:

That's PFLAG's canopy.

Here's a wide shot of the people from the back and side:

Here's the diagonal corner from the front:

And finally, the vertical banner:

After everything was taken down and put away, I went to my mom's to help her move a few things in her garage.

[George]

That didn't take too long, so we played a game of Phase 10...she won.

[George]

When I left, it was even warmer!  This time, I took a picture of my car's outside temperature indicator which indicated that it was 103°F!!

[John G.]

Nice photos, George.
