End of the season

Thursday will be me final day at work. I told my colleagues and they put up a sign saying goodbye. I had taken some muffins Evelyn had made, so they had something to ameliorate their grief. J I was disappointed that many of my regular customers didn’t come through so I could wish them well for the winter. Anyway, I took my things and came home. I had driven, so I got Evelyn and we went off to a different Iron Duff golf course in Crabtree north of here. It was a “mountain golf course” so we decided to get a cart. We were glad because it had some long hard hills. I didn’t play well, but that might be partly the result of not knowing the course. Shirley and I will have to go there some next summer. They have an 18 hole $20 rate for geezers during the week, including a cart. We came home and readied ourselves for our gourmet dinner at the Herron House. We went at 7 and had plenty of wine with dinner. The dinner included squash soup, a salad, including pears, an entree chosen from the three selections. Evelyn had crown roast of pork with red plum sauce and I had salmon with roasted red pepper cream sauce. She had bourbon chocolate pecan pie for dessert while I had Belgian white chocolate brule. Of course we shared both the entree and the dessert. Everything was delicious, albeit $40 each. We had a coupon worth $25, so our cost was less than some others. We had a nice conversation with the man and wife who own the bed and breakfast who had gone to many of the same sites in Canada that we visited two summers ago. She also gave us some tips on where she gets her supplies of food. We came home and stayed up a while to let the food settle. I was very tired and went right to sleep as usual and remained asleep, unlike last night when I was up for an hour around 5 AM.
