perry’s 1st day of his 1st vacation 2023

Jan 14, 2023

Photos to follow soon of Christmas in January. The snow and frigid temps cancelled Christmas with Perry’s family at Christmastime, but at least it wasn’t rescheduled for July.

Today was just a cold and wet typical winter day in Indiana.

Perry’s family all live in different parts of Indiana — all about an hour and a half from here — and his immediate family is massive compared to mine. It’s just Scott and me — and Ben then Colette. Perry has a brother and a sister living and together they have provided him TWELVE nieces and nephews. I understand why he decided to simply have dogs. 🙂

Home this evening to take a photo… although only in the mid 20s, the sky was still lovely.

A1 or chopsticks?

Tomorrow, Perry and I are going out to eat Chinese with those Pesky Neighbors — and I’m not a huge fan of Chinese food. For them, and for Perry, it’s a favorite. Ben isn’t going because of work but he doesn’t mind… it’s a middle of the road food for him. This butcher’s daughter would much rather have steak.

TIL (Today I Learned): There is a genus of bees nicknamed “vulture bees” that are stingless and eat carrion (dead animal meat) instead of pollen. They still produce edible honey and can be found in North and South America.
