Another beautiful sunset

Expecting our first rain since a couple days before Thanksgiving.  The clouds starting to roll in make for a beautiful sunset. 

Another eight minutes and two fresh crabs come out of the pot.  Dan who is doing some tile and other misc work for us went out today and brought two fresh crab and some fresh cod.  Per Dan you boil crab exactly 21 minutes and add lots of salt to the boil.  Life is good.

Getting our kitchen cabinets refinished.  Tonight we go over to Paula's for another dinner and game night.  We've have stuff every night this week.  Last night Susan went to the school board meeting and Monday was movies.  They had someone that owns an autamation studio and presented 2 1/2 hours for fantastic shorts.  Tomorrow is the Grange meeting and Friday is ourv monthly locals potluck and game night.  I would say we're busy.

Sorry if the blog is out of order

Some from two months ago never went and were automatically sent when I sent the newest Blog.  We have not been in Crescent City ofr a couple months.  We've made one trip from the Coast; that to San Francisco a couple weeks ago.

It's two months since we left Sacramento

We have settled in.  We start each day with an Almas walk of about an hour.  Then its breakfast and a game while eating.
We do lots at the local theater.  We joined the movie club and go to the movies the 1st and 2nd Mondays of the month.  We have gotten into opera and go to the Met live presentations; the next being this coming Saturday.  We are going to a live telecast of the London Theater tonight.
We have had several neighbors over to eat and were invited over to their houses as well.
There is a Thursday walking club and we have joined on several hikes including a great mushroom identification like with a PhD candidate from UC Berkeley.
We joined the food coop and the Grange where we are helping with the New Years Eve Crab Feed and are taking on a special project to restore the cemetary and work with the high school students to develop the history of those buried; some go back to the 1850's.
We we have had lots of visitors and a great Thanksgiving time with Rose and her boyfriend Nick and our friend Janet
