Time To Update

Saturday we went to visit Dave’s Aunt Wilma, she is going to be 90 years old this August 19th and she is just doing great. We sat and visited then went to lunch and she just gets around like a champ, Steve, one of her sons, is having an open house for her in August , hopefully we can make it back up. OK That Was Saturday.
Sunday we got together with Dave’s half sister, Virginia, we visited for a little while then went to lunch. It was great seeing her again but it is hard visiting because she is deaf and I don’t believe she is around hearing people as much so she doesn’t speak as much as she use to when we were around her. She had lost her hearing when she was very young but use to be able to hear that’s why she knew how to talk.
After we left Virginia, we went driving around Auburn and found out they had a big time Rodeo going on at the Fairgrounds so we decided to go to it. I believe it was the first rodeo I have ever been too, even though, my cousin, Baxter, was a big Cowboy guy. Anyway, it was fun but of course I kept rooting for the calf’s to get away on Steer Wrestling, Team Roping, Tie Down Roping and for sure I was rooting for the Bull’s on the Bull Riding. It was great fun, something I would do again, but the people watching is the best past time of all, do these people not look at themselves before they walk out of their houses? Too funny and very entertaining.
Monday, we drove to Paradise California and visited with Dave’s nephew John and his wife Colleen; we got there late morning and stayed all day. John was diagnosed with a tumor, growing in his tail bone and it is cancerous, in the beginning of March, I believe. He is only 52 and going thru a series of chemo treatments for the next 9 months at UC Davis.
Today, Wednesday, we are driving up to Oakland and seeing my Uncle Bob and Jim, will write more tomorrow.
