Week 45 - Oregon City - November 7 - November 13, 2022

At Activity Days we had Brother Moffat come and talk to the kids.  He is a professional illustrator.  He showed us some of his work and answered a lot of questions.  It was a very interesting event.

It was, finally, the week that I finished cleaning up in the basement after all of the work on the windows was finished.

Here is a really big, and old, abandoned mouse nest I found under the white cabinets which I burned because I didn't want them anymore - and they were very poorly constructed.

Then I immediately made a new, but organized mess, when I pulled off the shelves and from boxes, all of the photos I had gotten after my mom and dad died.  They are all over the pool table now.

The reason I got all the photographs out was because my brother, Jan, and niece, Breda, were coming to visit for the weekend.  Jan brough all of his old photographs and letters, and we perused through all of them.  My work is now in front of me.......I am going to use a photo scanner i recently purchased, and will organize them all and save them in an external hard drive and will also post pertinent photographs on FamilySearch. 

Friday night we had a "bring your own take out pot luck dinner".

Saturday  Travis came over and he and Jan and some grand sons shot rifles.

Saturday night we had a big family turkey dinner. And we celebrated Breda's birthday (which was in August but Warren wanted to make a flamingo cake) and Travis' 42nd birthday.

My brother and I - people say we look alike and sound alike.

And the cousins
