It’s been a really busy day today. From swimming to coffee, home for the rest of the morning and lunch.
On the way to bridge, we stopped at our TV service office to pick up a new remote for the cable/TV. We wore out the mute button on the original one. John said the folks in the office got a big kick out of that.
At bridge, my cards in the first two rounds were awful, but finally improved over the afternoon. We went straight from bridge to an event at the downtown library.
Are y’all familiar with the books of Mary Alice Monroe? She writes delightful, semi-beach-books set in the low county of the Carolinas. She has some family ties in Chattanooga, and the library (and me particularly) has (have?) talked with her several times about coming here. Anyhow, she has a new book out (The Summer Girls) and this was part of her book tour. Monroe is a very active conservationist, and her novels always include something about animals and the environment, but with a good story to go along with it. Anyhow, it was fun to hear her speak. We got a copy of this new book. And I can recommend you give her works a try - she has about 10 or so books out.
From there, we went to our favorite Mexican place to eat, and headed for home and some TV (after setting up the new remote).
