As I have written before, Adele and Benito have a house in in Palm Springs. To our sorrow, our friend Benito passed away recently and Palm Springs presents a problem for Adele. It is hard to spend time there alone. So this last time she went she asked Susan if she would like to go with her. Well, of course she would!
So October 6th off she and Adele went to Bellingham to catch their flight south. Nico and I were bachelors for two glorious weeks. Susan wondered if she should take her cell phone and I said she should because it was a great little camera — and she could phone me on her camera if she wanted to. She took my suggestion and actually came back with some great pictures. And here they are!

Canadian Thanksgiving
Adele and Susan did not want to miss a Canadian Thanksgiving with a roasted turkey. So they made dinner, invited the neighbours and had a dinner party. Adele, Susan, all their Italian friends are such wonderful cooks that a a dinner like this, any dinner they cook, is a feast!
And that was Adele and Susan’s two weeks in Palm Springs. I’m glad Susan took so many, and such good, pictures. These cell phones are wonderful. She is home now and really missing the sunshine and heat. She does not do well in the dark of winter being a creature of the sun.
I am not sure what our next trip will be, but I am going on the next one!
