Shannon holds court and Dame Edna


 These are some shots of Shannon holding court with her pals in our sitting room.  She has a ball retailing them with stories of what she is watching and goings on at her program.  Her visits are the Sunday afternoon entertainment.

Some time ago, Judy and I made a trip to Toronto for a weekend away.  We tried to see Lion King the Musial at the theater


Not successful in getting tickets, we decided on a performance by Dame Edna Average.  This is actually Barry Humphreys, Australian comedian dressed in drag before it became a big deal.  He was done up as an haughty old lady and entertained us all.  People told us we did not want to sit in front because you could easily be on stage and part of the show.  We laughed till tears streamed down our faces.  He died yesterday a 89 in full cognizance of his faculties till the very end.  He played Dame Edna for Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip, and numerous TV talk shows in Britain.

We also had a Saturday visitor with Mr. Spud who belongs to one of the residents that was in the hospital.  He needed us for the day and had a great time walking with Harry and Judy, later collapsing in the chair .

Thats all Ive got for today.

All for now

Stay safe.
