On Thursday, I donated blood at a Red Cross blood drive in Columbus. I just happened to see some signs in town last week, so thought I would go and help out. In the past, it has been a 50/50 chance if I could donate. My iron counts are always borderline. But, I ate some tuna for lunch, and my iron counts were just above the acceptable level :)
I was surprised how many people were there to donate. When I have attended other blood drives in “the big city”, there were never more than a few people donating. Small towns do seem to have a volunteer frame of mind. The best part was they had Culver’s custard for a treat at the end. I do love that Culver’s custard!!!
Our weather has been quite rainy lately. This area is already 2 inches above the average rainfall for the month of June and today is only the 12th. With all the rain comes a lot of humidity. I fear the mosquitoes are not far behind :)
I would guess the campground is only about half full this weekend. We did rent a canoe and kayak this morning. I’m thinking it will be a pretty quiet weekend.
Wishing everyone a great weekend!
Yumm! Custard!

Congratulations on your anniversary! I really think the two of you work so well together!
ReplyDeleteBe careful with all this rain of the river in your campground; I saw the news of a campground with a flash flood and thought of you.
Got to spend some lovely time with your son this weekend; it was great!
With Joy,
