Every Monday and Thursday morning, promptly at 8:00 am Don picks up Dad and they head over to First Watch (a restaurant) for breakfast. Being a “regular” at a restaurant gives you special priveleges, such as a fun relationship with your waitress. Maggie brings Dad and Don their coffee and breakfast twice a week. On Valentine’s Day Dad and Don gave her a card, and Maggie gave them some chocolate roses!
If you are ever in St. Louis and find yourself in Oakville…head over to First Watch and ask for Maggie…she’ll take good care of you! Oh, and be sure to tell her Don and Ralph sent you! 😉

Maggie and Dad
Don (and his wife Gayle) live next door to Kirk’s sister. They are amazing neighbors ~ just like my friend and neighbor Jackie!
Amazing neighbors are lifesavers and heros. Amen.

This afternoon, while Kirk was taking Dad to a doctor appointment, I ran a few errands and even took a few minutes to myself for a cup of coffee here. (In Minnesota, this restaurant is called Panera!)
While I was out and about a “winter storm” was producing sleet. In “Panera” I heard a high school student say school was closed at 10 am. WOW I thought…the “weather” hadn’t even started yet! When I got back to dad’s I had to laugh seeing the kids across the street “sledding”. Poor kids…have to sled on driveways covered with sleet…cuz there isn’t any snow here!
I suppose since they don’t see snow much…
it explains why they use their body’s as sleds!
