I was looking through my older pictures.  I found this one of a sunset I took while I was still in Renton at Debbie's.  It made my day more cheerful looking at it.  We have had so many cloudy days lately. I love pictures of sunrises and sunsets.
 
My car is now 8 months old.  I only have 2300 miles on it but because of the age I wanted it checked.  I don't need an oil change yet.  My oil is like new,  He said come back in another 1,000 miles and have it checked again.  When I do get it changed I will have the Mobil 1 put in.  

I haven't much interesting going on in my life so I have to keep up with what others are doing.  Rachel and Michael will be having their baby girl in a couple of weeks or sometime in that time period.  That is really exciting.  

The other interesting news is that Diane bought a 4 bedroom house in Atlanta, Georgia.  She paid cash for it.  $33,000 including closing costs.  She says it has a brand new roof, which is a big plus.  The house needs some work.  She used some of her retirement money to buy it.  I think that it was a wise thing to do.  Property is like money in the bank and she can spend money on fixing it up instead of having to pay rent.

Lately I have gotten interested in reading World War II stories.  I read the "Winds of War" by Herman Wouk. It is a very long book but so interesting and so well written.  I watched the Ministries starring Robert Mitchum. If you have Netflix you can watch it on Netflix.  I know all this is history for most of you.  I was in high school when the war started so there were no history books about the war yet.

I have all my books on my Kindle. I just love the Kindle.  I can carry this "library" with me anywhere.
