I received a new compliment this morning while shopping at Meijer this morning. An older lady said “You look like you just walked off a book cover.” I looked confused and said thank you. And she replied “oh, it’s acompliment, I like how you look.” I am not sure what sort of book cover I supposedly I walked off of. I am wearing a grey porkpie, a light tan shirt, tweed waistcoat, green paisley ascott, faded green dungarees and walnut Chelsea boots.

The band singer in me drove me to have a post title that uses parallel number of syllables 🎵 I introduced my buddy and fellow church member Jeff at the Rotary meeting as our speaker. As the head of the Trustees and a recent project manager retiree, he is heading up our $6,000,000 Christian Neighborhood Center that will expand our present food pantry that presently feeds 1500 families monthly already and the clothes closet last month alone clothed 700 people We also just finished the $50,000 annual school supplies drive that provides 4,000 kids annually with supplies for school. Considering the population of the town is 18,000 this is quite an endeavor. I am grateful to all Jeff does.
