Going Strong

Today would have been Elvis's 87th birthday, had he lived. I know that because a couple of days ago would have been my dad's 87th birthday, too. It's funny to think that those guys were born just 2 days apart-- my dad didn't have a lot of Elvis-like qualities. 

Today is also Heidi's parents' 56th wedding anniversary, a date easy for me to remember, because, see above. This morning Heidi decided she wanted to do a little more than usual to help her folks celebrate the day, since they aren't really eating out because of COVID. So we had some flowers and prepared food delivered to them from the grocery store near their home. That way, her mom won't have to cook, and they will still have a nice meal. 

It took us less than 10 minutes to get everything picked out and sent on its way with the promise that it would be at their door in less than two hours. "Wow!" Heidi shook her head as I closed the lap top. "That internet! It's still pretty amazing."
