Twice!

     Tom joined me for lunch at the OFH. Every meal there's a special in addition to fourteen menu items. Today's special was spaghetti and meatballs with mixed vegetables.  Portions are modest size suitable for old folks. The meal includes a starter of soup, salad, cold slaw, or fruit, beverage and dessert, which today was peach pie.

   After lunch Tom continued cribbage lessons. For the second time ever ever ever I won a game of cribbage...twice now! In all honesty I do occasionally ask for a bit of coaching. Tom also ascertains that my point counting is accurate. Too often I miss some points and counting them is one of the most complicated aspects of the game.

   It's a good game, accompanied by good food and good conversation.

Meteora's (Greece) unique rock pillars and monasteries were built over centuries, with the rocky spires themselves being the result of geological processes over millions of years. The monasteries were constructed by monks who faced considerable challenges in building on these high, inaccessible rocks, utilizing methods like nets, buckets, and ropes to haul materials.       How would you like to be the bricklayer?
