Jean’s Jottings – I enjoyed a Sunday drive to DeSoto with Alan and Sarah to take Kale out for lunch. I was glad to enjoy the pizza and chatter from Kale. Of course he needed a Walmart stop and that drive really confirmed the reason I don’t venture out of my little circle of driving!  It’s been years since I’ve travelled in that area and I was amazed at the growth. In spite of the gloomy day, it was made much brighter by being invited to ride along!
