Feb 6th - Wall Washing

Weather was nice again today, we are enjoying it but some of you folks are probably tired of hearing about daily highs in the 60's and lows in the 40's. Rain is forecast for tonight and tomorrow. Tonight's low is supposed to be 51.

This morning we went to the IKEA that is a couple of miles from here. We had lunch at IKEA and then left and went to the Berkley Bowl, it is the grocery store that has a phenomenal amount of fresh fruit and vegetables.

When we got home I took a nice nap. Kathy took a short one and then washed windows on the "conservatory." I finished washing the last section on the front of the house.

I found out that we missed yesterdays (Sunday's) excitement. About five blocks from here there was a pitched gun battle around 3 PM. 7 people were hospitalized with gunshot wounds. None of the injuries were life threatening. The people shot were not cooperating with the police. These people must be terrible shots.

I'm guessing that in the 3 weeks that we have been here I have read about at least 6 people being killed. I don't know if the problem is gang or drug related, or maybe both. The area around here doesn't seem to be all that dangerous.

Goodnight and may God bless you and yours.
