Last week my aunt passed away, and I have been meaning to send a memorial gift to my uncle. Today I went to the Arbor Day Foundation site and purchased a memorial tree gift for him in honor of my aunt. They will plant 10 trees, in her name, in a national forest in Florida. These trees gifts are not only a great memorial gift, but the trees will give to future generations too.
Today I am listening to a Louis Armstrong CD of Great Original Performances of 1923-1931. Such a fun era of music. Jazz was simple back then, easy melodies with a little bit of improvisation. I am a big Louis Armstrong fan. He was such a personality and contributed greatly to the jazz art form. What is special about this CD, besides the music, is it was purchased in New Orleans during a work trip, a Louisiana Red Hot Records compilation by Robert Parker!
For a workout today, we went on a tandem bike ride for 30 minutes and a little later I will do some strength training. It is such a lovely day, I had to get out to enjoy!
Happy giving and have a great rest of your Sunday!
