I had a couple of doctors&#8217; appointments on Wednesday, then I went out shopping and to dinner at the Goat with Alison and PeeWee. Thursday I had an appointment in Little Rock, followed by a good lunch with Mary at Three Amigos, then a very welcomed hair appointment in Maumelle. The sun was really cool on the drive back to Hot Springs, right before sundown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Big-red-sun-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8063\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Big-red-sun-300x225.jpeg 300w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Big-red-sun-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Big-red-sun-768x576.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Big-red-sun-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, http:\/\/www.criplomats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Big-red-sun.jpeg 1780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption>Big red ball of a sun<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I went to yoga Friday morning &#8211; Kathy W. and I had a good visit over coffee at the Kollective, then we browsed in some of the little shops downtown &#8211; great to catch up with her. Pam came on Friday night and we had Scrabble weekend. We played non-stop Scrabble until she left today after lunch &#8211; lots of fun! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The weather turned to spring on Saturday! It was 80 degrees, and we enjoyed a lovely lunch with David, Alison, and PeeWee in the gazebo. David grilled brauts &#8211; yummy! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love being back at the condo, although I wish John were here, too!
