12 november, 2022 Wandering & Capturing Moments

    I worked at the Old Mill in the office while my boss was out of town giving a program.  It was beyond slow.  I had 5 people come in for self guided tours.  They were all nice.  I forgot my phone charger so I had to ration using it.  But there was a newspaper I read & Halloween candy I got into!!

    AP, new worker, came in to close it all up.  Have to lock up the main building & roller mill.  And we have an old town set up that all the doors have to be locked.  But we had time to chat for over 30 minutes.  I really did not know him but I do now.  We had a nice talk.  Found we have things in common.

    Got home & Nico started right away being a brat!  My payment for being gone.  He is a mess!!  I finally got a long stick to threaten him with.  I would never hit him but the sound scares him.  He wants to eat but people food.  I cannot eat until my Pepsi is cold.  Another 20 minutes.  Plus he has food of his own to eat.

    It got sooo cold last nite. I saw 15F last night. Today the high was 36F.  They are still mentioning snow for the next week but I assume not for us.  A friend in Illinois sent me a photo of her snow.  Soooo jealous.  Just gorgeous!!

    Photos are some old ones.  Will explain them.

                        

    Dad standing in front of the only flying B29 at that time.  Named Fifi.  Now there is a second one named Doc that flies.  Cool to see them.  Last time one was in Salina I cried when I heard it start & fly by.  I have tears just writing this.

Dad's crew in WWII.  He is the first one in the back row.  Plane is named after their commander. Last name was Hapgood.  Dad stayed friends with him after the war.  And many of their crew kept in touch.  I remember a couple that visited.
