A pleasant anniversary

The restaurant meal was just fine.  We didn't know that the restaurant had an "early bird special menu"  obviously geared toward seniors, and that's good to know, but we ordered off the regular menu.   And, of course, the evening was exactly what we expected and enjoyed.

However, we hadn't given much thought about what might have been going on the the world while we were celebrating.  Yesterday was garbage collection on our street.  David had placed the two bins on either side of the driveway, and when we got home, most of our driveway entrance had been filled with snow from the removal operations and our bins were up in the bank, half buried. This was about 11:00, but he had to get out an blow snow before we could even get the car in the driveway.  Of course, if the bins aren't placed exactly right, they don't get emptied.  The garbage is usually picked up earlier and it was okay, but the recycling will have to be held over until next week.  He just did what was necessary to get us in, and is out there again this morning, cleaning up the rest.  The grow op next door pays a service to clean their driveway, and it comes in a big half ton with a plow blade attached.  Well they filled both our window wells on that side of the house yesterday, not for the first time.  David has cleaned them out now, but is quite angry.  Doesn't bode well.

We're both tired today, and with the change in the weather, both of us are sore, so a quiet day in store.  We need to get out to the library, but that's a short trip.
