The Fair! Part One
Bev and I went to the fair on Monday, August 17th, Senior Day, and had a grand time. We hurried to get there because Bev wanted to see her former tapper group perform; they were scheduled for 9:45. We arrived with time to spare, but then had even more time because the people doing the sound were having many issues to getting the music to play. Eventually it began and I took this picture because it was funny that the couple in the front row, somebody's children or grandchildren, were filming like crazy.

So much has happened. First, here's a photo of maybe 30 goslings. Don't think I've ever seen this many at once. On May 20th Spot and I sat down on the dock and then climbed aboard Kevin's sailboat....
Happy Birthday to Me.
Kevin and I went to see the movie "The Fall Guy" this afternoon and it was quite entertaining. We had no idea that it was pouring down rain outside and more rain and flooding is forecast. We're...
Garage Sale Mania
Or is it more accurate to say Garage Sale Frenzy? I wrote this on May 4th but then didn't post it and now the mania has subsided. From May 4th: Randy has been talking about having a garage sale for...
April, Mostly Cats
I know I spend too much time feeling bad for Pumpkin who lives all alone upstairs. I have been bringing him down for short periods of time, when everybody else is in the back of the house, and I do...
Boat Launch!
We launched my boat on April 9th which seemed very early, but Mom looked it up in her journal and says that last year we put it in on April 10th. We didn't go on the boat much last year, though, and...
