Tuesday August 10th 2010

Tuesday already!!  Linda got up this morning and after getting ready she checked her blood sugar.  Last night it was 160 and this morning 136. Thought that was pretty good. She is still getting used to the machine. She uses a couple strips to get a good reading.  When she gets the machine down pat she will only have to use one.

Today at work, we finish up the load from Sunday.  I figured it would take about three days to finish.  Nick and Sherry and Linda and I kind of split up the load.  Nick and Sherry got the biggest part but still finished before we did. I did get to shampoo the last room at the motel.  Really dirty.  Linda and I went over to the Lodge in the morning or maybe it was in the afternoon, it was sometime!!  I had to get a picture of the dumbwaiter that carries the clean linens up stairs and the dirty linens down to the laundry room…

Not a very pretty sight is it??  I know that from the first floor to the second there are nineteen steps. from the second to the third I think there are fourteen steps.  Good exercise unless you have bad knees. After lunch we went over to the main park and finished the only room there and shampooed it. We had enough time to finish the laundry and get everything back in order again.  Nick and Sherry finished the North park except for a little laundry that we will get in the morning.

Daniel and Rachael asked us to go the the Liverpool Legends tonight.  They say they are really good.  Got a few pictures…

Daniel, Rachael and Linda at the Mansion.

Not a bad picture is it?  This is a cardboard cut out but looks good…

They actually are good singers and do a good job on the Beatle’s songs.

This is George Harrison’s sister, she told a few things about the Beatles and answered questions.  She made it sound like she got the group together. They are excellent musicians.

This is the Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Heartsclub Band segment. Not sure but I think this is when they got into drugs pretty heavy. This part of the show was OK but really not my cup of tea.

Liverpool Legends.  All in all it was a good night. We like Daniel and Rachael and had a really good time with them.  We will probably do it again sometime. I have come to the conclusion though that all the acts, or almost all the acts here are imitators of the real thing.  I’m not complaining and in fact this Fall some of the well know acts will be back in Branson. We won’t be here.  There was an advertisement for an act coming in September or October that the tickets started at $62. Can’t remember what act it was, maybe the Gatlin Brothers, I’m not sure. I’m sure that I won’t be going to it though.

We got home about 10:45PM and decided it was going to be a short night. We’ll go right to bed and will not pass “go” and will not collect $200.  Good night Y’all…..
