I took the Volvo to Coker to have the front tires rotated and to have front end alignment and had to leave it overnight. Lynn took me to get it this morning. I had neglected to ask them to rotate the tires. I guess I thought that went with the alignment! So it got done this morning. I'm slowly learning about these tasks. The serviceman said the car really needed the alignment

I decided to take myself to lunch at Appleby''s. Just thought I'd try it. I had fish the server was very attentive. The serving was so generous I had enough for supper.

On the way home, I stopped by BiLo to get a few things. I found a doggy toy squirrel for Hershey. She loves it! It looks real and has a squeaker. I hope she will like chasing the many real squirrels that are robbing my bird feeders! Between the squirrels and the black birds, I've had to abandon trying to feed the birds.

The little southern magnolia that Gene teased me about when I got it abouot 4 years ago has finally bloomed! It had about 4 large sweet smelling white blooms. Now that I have a 'blooming magnolia, I've become a true southerner! He said it would get too large and I think we did plant it too close to the house. I wonder if it can be replanted.
