This morning Doc and I spent the
first few hours at the Penny Palace. We
emptied boxes, then worked in the breakfast nook area. We tidied, then got the table extension out
of deep storage. It has been 6+ months
since we bought the table and this was the first time we had it totally assembled.
At the crack of noon we finally
headed for the Pomona house. When Doc
stopped for petrol, we found a penny at the gas pump, then a dirt penny in a
planter. (Coins #1&2).
At our lunch stop we found two dirt
pennies in a planter. (Coins #3&4)
At the Pomona house Doc moved
things around in the garage. We were
expecting someone at 4 p.m. to come over and buy our son's trailer. The 38 Chevy and lots of other things needed
to be moved in order to clear a path for the trailer to get from the back yard
to the front yard.
I made a phone call regarding some
retirement questions. I was on hold for 2
hours and 18 minutes! That sure tested
my patience!

The trailer buyer arrived and the
sale was completed. The trailer has been
sitting in the yard for at least a decade.
At 5:15 p.m. two of our favorite
students arrived. I have been on a leave
of absence for two years and missing some of 'the kids'. We gave Kevin and Andrea a tour of the Pomona
house, then headed for an all-you-can-eat buffet. What student would turn down a free meal?
After dinner it was off to the
Penny Palace for a tour. Andrea is very
creative and is interested in recycling.
She liked the recycled glass counter tops and other features of the PP
When our guests left, Doc said
"we really should have been working on packing or the house, and the kids
should have been working on their final projects or studying for next week's
exams, But it sure was fun to have time with them".
Total:
4 Pennies
