Neighbors are nice but they don’t fraternize and if you don’t attend the local churches, are not a member of the Republican Party (no Democrats around here), no longer work (retired), and your family is in other states, then the social life is zero – but we travel.<br />Now I’ll copy what I had Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1294026230680025155.post-36682652642974971972009-07-10T02:21:35.805+01:002009-07-10T02:21:35.805+01:00I forgot to mention the entertainment!

We could have gone to another for fireworks, but around 9 0'clock Jerry feigned illness and we went home. No Mozart, no poetry.
