Fall glory: some sunshine, clear air, blue skies with clouds, Mt Rainer in clear view as we crossed 520.
Kitchen appliance shopping, went to Sears in Bellevue to look at Kenmore. Sears seem tired and defeated; a retail colossus once now on the verge of oblivion. The way of the world...all becomes new.
Went by Lowell and Carol house to wish them Happy Thanksgiving and to give them a baby short to take to Luca in the Bay Area when they go. We will be off to Tulsa. Good friends with whom we have spent some Thanksgiving holidays.
Too much time on Facebook chasing down friends of old in Tulsa and San Francisco. Used to be that you drifted apart and gradually people faded out of your life. Now it's possible to see their photos, find where they live, etc. Sort of fun to research and discover, but how can you move forward and change if you never have to leave anything, anyone behind? Like, people on Facebook with 800+ friends; no way they can actually keep up and be really involved with that many people.
