For Sale Sign

Today was the big day for Chris and Edie--their house is officially on the market. Whew! We've all been working to get the house ready to make a good first impression on potential buyers--lots of paint and scrubbing and trips to Ace Hardware! It looks wonderful according to the real estate agent who came by today to take pictures for the ads.

Ken's daughter Rebecca called today to say that she is planning to get married very soon. Quite a surprise since we had just recently heard that she was dating. More news later.....

I (Lee) got my teeth cleaned today. Erin at Dr. Schumacher's office did a great job. It was a bit of an adventure to find someone new, since the same person has been cleaning my teeth for the last five years in Long Beach.

I made a fresh cherry cobbler tonight with cherries picked from the neighbor's tree. They are tart but flavorful, and the vanilla ice cream set them off nicely. Yum! as Annie says. She helped make the cobbler and waited eagerly for it to come out of the oven.

We stopped by the World of Bikes today after eating lunch at the Hamburg Diner, made famous as a stopping place for presidential candidates and presidents. An episode of the West Wing was filmed here too. Really good french fries--and great atmosphere. At the bike shop we looked at Electras and Treks, searching for a good comfort bike. We'll go back tomorrow when we have more time to try them out.
