Today's highlight was going to visit Jane & her Christmas trees. Each tree she sets up has a theme, usually she has 3 trees, this year she added another.

After the tour of the trees, we had lunch.
 |
| L to R: steak, somen salad, chicken, shrimp in wonton wrappers, salad, & rolls. |
Mom's thumb looks great! I took the last bandage off on Monday ( 4 days ago). It is totally healed, now she needs to spend time moving it and bending it to get the full range of motion back and ease the swelling.
I did 2 loads of laundry this morning before we went to Jane's house. Both loads were primarily things from Kohala. I brought them back to clean them up, some had become a little damp while in storage & were starting to mildew, others were in drawers full of termite frass. I had to tie a rag on the outlet of the hose to keep water from splashing out of the laundry tub.
I washed all the dish towels from the kitchen drawers. One of the things I discovered while I was folding the laundry was 2 Russian dish towels. Not sure where Grandma would have picked them up; I can't imagine any of the stores in Kohala importing goods from Russia and I know she never made a trip to Russia.

Happy Birthday to Jody & Mariangela! Happy Festivus to all!
