Well, today was a beautiful day. Sunny and comfortable with little wind. I got up at my usual 6:00AM. I had a lot to do. I was frying out tonight so fixed the potato salad and had a couple of extra eggs, so I made some deviled eggs that were spectacular. I keep telling the guys that there is really NO recipe. They always are good but these were really special. I must remember to always use "spicy brown" mustard.

I left early for church because I had to sell raffle tickets for the Turkey Dinner Raffle. I have donated a twin size quilt that I finished about a month ago. It is one of my travel quilts. It is mainly in greens and quite colorful. The other prizes are a sewing machine, a beautiful framed print by Kitty Klitch of the Villager in Sheboygan falls. Kitty is the head of the Turkey Dinner committee and an extremely talented local artist and teacher of art in the area and a "flag" throw. After that I went to visit Mother before going to Mass myself. The choir sang at this Mass. We sang a Vivaldi which is very lively and quite pretty. "Sing to the Lord."

I had to go directly from Church to Rhine to work the Sunday Open Shoot. It was very slow so Bobbie and I were able to easily do our league shoots. I was pretty happy with this week. I think my scores were all in the 50s and 60s which is good for me.

I fried brats to go with the potato salad. The fryer was scary tonight. I started to get flare ups (which I expected) and was totally prepared with a water squirt bottle, I kept putting the scattered flames out but finally the whole bowl of the fryer burst into flame and I was barely able to rescue the brats. They provided us with a little charcoal,(is charcoal really good for the breath) but still tasted good. I have never before in all my frying days had a fryer turn into an inferno.

Now, everything is done for the evening. This will be my last blog until next Saturday. Will you be able to stand it? All I have to do tomorrow morning, (we leave at 6:00AM) is shower, get dressed, walk poor pitiful Chelsea and eat something.

My brother Jeff (actually it probably was Kathy, his wife) sent me the greatest 20 "Words of Wiscom". Here is one for you to mull on.

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I
realized that The Lord doesn't work that way, so I stole one and
asked him to forgive me.

Ezio Pinza was just singing "This Nearly Was Mine" from South Pacific on The Show Tunes Music Channel. As Dick says there are some names and songs that just turn me on. Ezio singing South Pacific is one of them.


I love you all. Have a great week and come back on Saturday for a quick summery of the Mystery Tour.
