We started out by going to town to do our weekly grocery shopping. Afterwards we stopped by the UPS Store to pick up our mail. There wasn't much there because we had just picked the mail up a couple of days ago. On the way home we swung by Jack and Jill and picked up a couple of donuts.

The other day Amazon had a sale on Echo/Alexa buttons so Larry ordered a couple of them to play with. Originally the buttons were designed to play games but now they have been updated to do commands. First he had to program the button to communicate with the Echo device via Bluetooth, then he assigned it the command to turn off all the lights. He installed it by the door going into the garage and now when we leave we simply push the button and all of our lights turn off, so far it works great.

While Larry did this project I did some Sudoku puzzles and worked on my annual book. I also did my weekly housecleaning.

In the evening Larry and Patrica showed up to go to Sun City for the weekly A dance with the Sundancers. We had two squares and one extra couple. Dan usually runs the computer and the computer tells the dancers which square they dance in, this week he wasn't there and Howard used cards that did the same thing. The tapes were challenging and we had a super time dancing with friends.
