I wasn't smart enough to think of it but Judy arranged to have our son Chris who spends much of his time in Houston to get and deliver a bottle of wine to our good friends, Marty and Kathy who also live in Houston.
We first met over dinner on a cruise ship and hit it off. Since then we have gone on another cruise together and keep in touch regularly.
Both Marty and recently Kathy are retired; he from the benefits business and Kathy from Toyota. I never did get my free Avalon from her. Oh well.
It is always good to hear from them as when they called this evening thanking us for the wine. Always the comedian, Marty said that their cat and his/her neighbor friend drank it before they got home from diner at their neighbors.
Judy is in Minneapolis visiting her mother; an annual New Year's tradition.
Happy New Year's everyone!
