Yesterday, I spent about an hour and a half talking to Michael, director of the Stable Foundation. He seems to treat me as a peer and I enjoyed the time. He has some issues with his board and fund-raising and I gave him my two cents. But in the process we talked about the challenges facing the homeless in Athens, especially during the upcoming winter. He wasn't sure whether the Homeless Shelter had a new director or not, but thought they continue to face funding challenges. Meanwhile, IHN is once again without a director.

I went by the Land Trust and picked up my last check. I went to the bank and deposited it. I spent an hour at Ray's office organizing his stuff. We went to the Captain's apartment and swam for a bit. We went  home and the Captain was at our house. He was doing some bill-paying, I think, and then he watched the tennis on TV for a bit. Ray did most of the preparations for supper, maybe because he was excited about having goulash. I was too. We hadn't had any pasta or beef for a while, so it was pretty decadent.

It hit 97 degrees. No rain.

For fun, we went to Canopy after supper, and saw a fascinating show--aerial dance, dancing with hoops, poi, belly dancing, juggling fire. It was fun and different. I love the idea that you can see these things in Athens. We saw Harriet and Dave. They sent love to the girls...and were sorry to hear about my Mom's sudden death.

We came home, ate ice cream, and went to bed. I slept well for about 8 hours.
