Thurs., January 30, 2003 - Myrtle called in a.m. It was my turn to call but I became interested in a movie on TV. Mitch & Anna here this evening. Nancy & Mary went to a country music deal. Tom came for the usual routine. He brought barbecued ribs from Famous Dave's for the 4 of us. The kids played Rummikub with Tom & after he left we played cards & Rummikub.
Fri., January 31, 2003 - Played lazy all day. Went to movie in library this evening "Heaven Can Wait."
Sat., February 1, 2003 - Made trail snacks for tomorrow. Nancy came with groceries late in afternoon & I showered.
I'm not sure what country music thing Nancy and I would have gone to, but I'm guessing maybe Trace Adkins. I'm not betting any money on it, though.
I wonder which Heaven Can Wait was showing at the Pioneer House that night. I know there are at least two versions; I've seen only the one with Warren Beatty. Pretty funny, yet somewhat poignant, too. The wikipedia plot summaries of both movies are rather long, so I'm going to take a pass on posting those.
Instead, here is a curious and fun little article from the Sioux City Journal on December 2, 1925. The lady featured is my second great-aunt, sister of Maren, with Maren being the mother of William Andersen who married the lovely Anna Brogren and fathered Marian and Ray.
