It was wonderful to wake up at the
cabin. Birds were singing and the
bed was comfy. Who cares about the
dust and the cobwebs?

| Cousin Robin |
This morning Doc promptly got to
work on grading those papers. I cleaned the cabin - sucking up dead bugs, etc.
At noon we packed up and headed
down the mountain. Doc’s cousin
Robin was attending a conference in L.A. for women pilots. She asked if she might stop by the
Penny Palace. We met her at the
house at 1:15 p.m. She had seen
the house once before - a year ago when there was only subflooring. She noticed that a few changes had
occurred in that time.

| Pippy's First Sleepover at the PP |
We left Pippy parked for the two nights at her spot at the PP. That was her first sleepover. She had a great view of the gushing stream and then the valley lights in the distance. She did not seem to mind it at all.
This
evening Doc and I did our usual Sunday night grocery shopping. At the first store I found a penny,
dime and quarter. Of course I kept
saying, “Nickel, Nickel, Nickel”.
Doc collected a penny at the second grocery store. (Coins #1-4)
At the
third store Doc went to the restroom while I paid for the groceries. It was funny. I used a credit card and paid for everything. I was ready to leave when the cashier
asked if the Peanut Butter in the cart was also mine? Oops! I really
was not attempting to shoplift I just didn’t see that container. So I paid cash for that one item. The cashier handed me the receipt and
change saying, “Here is YOUR NICKEL”!
I had to laugh. It was
almost as if she KNEW my request as I was driving to the store. COINcidence?
I got the NICKEL as requested. Next time I need to be more specific
and ask for a FOUND nickel.
Total: 4 Coins P (2), N (0), D (1), Q
(1) = $0.37
