It was great to have visitors at our place this morning. Verlon brought some things up to our garage and had 3 items which we had set aside for him. He thought Concordia U. might be able to better utilize them at the Liturgical Art Center, or elsewhere than what he could. We got with Carl, a retired professor just down the hall from us, who maintains close contact with CU, who will get them where they need to go. Carolyn, Julie, Sadie and Jack also came up to spend some time with us. It was appropriate that on this 1st day of winter, that we should have "winter weather". The temperature dropped throughout the day. We had some freezing rain in early afternoon and is 25 degrees this evening. We always so enjoy Sadie and Jack when they come to see us. They know where all their "toys" are and easily find them.
We had a phone call from the fellow that bought the Hank Williams Poster at our Auction Sunday, along with some other items. He wondered what the "story" was on the poster and how we came into possession of it. After satisfying his curiosity, I suggested that he may be interested in an Art piece of Colorado Sandstone that we hadn't put on the Auction. We got together this afternoon and he went home with the item that Elaine bought in 1973 while working in Washington, D.C. with the Forest Service. We had enjoyed it all these years and were pleased to pass it on. He was very familiar with Brookdale and has relatives here which he visits frequently. We not only made as sale but also a new friend.
