We were up early this morning to drive to the ninety-plus miles to Menno for church. We took the back way from Pleasant Pines RV Campground instead of going through Cheney. That meant there was no place to stop for breakfast until we got to Ritzville. We picked up something to eat, then headed the next twenty miles to the church.
It's always good to be home at Menno. I enjoy seeing how much the children have grown. Today was the "Back Pack Blessing" day for all of the children who will be heading back to school in the next week or two. There were several comments about the Mennonite Country Auction which is coming up next month. The MCA website is up and running with pictures of a whole bunch of quilts which will be auctioned. www.mennonitecountryauction.mennonite.net There are three gorgeous afghans from Oregon posted as well. Keep checking the site, as Bill will keep adding items as they come in.
We took down a box of items for the Et Cetera Shop. The auction and booth sales are always the first Saturday in October, which means this year it will be October 4th.
We listened to a portion of the Mariners game on the radio, then saw the last of it on TV after we got home. It was another cliff-hanger. The Mariner's closer Rodney, walked the bases loaded in the 9th with the winning win at bat before he finally got the last out. But in the end, the Mariners swept the Reds!
