A Visit From "The Kids" Last Week

Dom's daughter Christine and his stepson Michael flew in last Tuesday for 4 nights.  They were a great help.

On Wednesday, Michael went up into the attic to retrieve some things.  He also threw away our old microwave and lifted up our new one.

Meanwhile, Christine and I picked up a huge pizza in Picayune and stopped for a couple of cold beers at Fatty's.

Thursday the kids and I took Dom's truck and went to the dump.  The 3 of us had lunch at Fatty's. 

When we got home, Michael bush-hogged our driveway.

We were going to return a lot of beer cans on Friday, but Tropical Storm Olga hit us.  Serious wind and rain on Friday and Saturday.

So, we stayed home on Friday.  The kids left Saturday morning after removing some fallen trees in our driveway.

NOLA Airport's power was knocked out for much of the day.  After a change in flights the kids finally got home.

It was a good productive and pleasant visit!  (And our Sexy Sadie was in heaven the entire time that they were here!)

A Short Visit From my Big Brother

My brother Rick flew in for 3 nights. 

On the way home from the airport we went for a late lunch at The Chimes in Covington.  Lovely place.  Great food.

On Friday morning the two of us went to a local Nissan Dealer.  Hours later, drove home with my new Nissan Rogue Sport!

Stopped at Fatty's in Picayune for another late lunch.  I love that place!

Saturday we talked about old times and had a pleasant day.  Lunch at Crossroads Seafood near our house.

Sexy Sadie LOVES her Uncle Ricky!
