LINDEN'S LIFE
Thursday, after posting the blog contents, joined Bill, Chuck, Jack, and Paul for our usual breakfast meeting. As I was not feeling the best, I left a little earlier than usual. Actually, was a little less than perfect most of the day. The church staff prepared and served an absolutely wonderful luncheon for the “Golden Glows.” It is enough to make one wish to join the older persons group. Gary Griesser presented a great program filled with jokes, patriotic music, recognition of the various armed services and veterans in general. He has a great singing voice and it was really enjoyable. We also saw him at Johnson Bible College earlier in the year. In the evening, I joined Jack and Paul for a free Veterans Day dinner at Applebee’s: each of us had a shrimp dinner…it and the service was excellent and much appreciated. It was a really nice day, wish I had felt a tad better. I am so blest in so many ways…thank God I was born in this country.
