i heard it rain in the night, a very good thing.  plus i think we’ve seen the last of the 90+ temps for the year.  amen to that.

kevin  launched the sailboat yesterday morning.  i took many, many photos, which of course will be here at some point.

meanwhile…here are more pictures of our trip to virginia in 2010.  this was a great little obscure park where we were almost the only people there.

here she is at the place we stopped in west virginia.  it was a little bit chilly in the morning.

this is one of my most-favorite pictures of mollie.  since i’m wearing gloves here, it musta been quite cool that morning.

there she was, rady to go again.  she thoroughly enjoyed taking trips with us.

this is at the little place we stayed in gulf shores, AL, last february.  she was always able to make herself comfortable wherever we went.

she wasn’t impressed with the new flooring, she just still wanted that cat food up on the counter.

yet another one of my favorite photos…

yesterday we gave our many, many many bags of dog treats to amy and jim.  it was good to do that.

amy sent me these photos of the very happy dogs, although numie looks just a little bit deranged here.

ok then,

mrs. on the brink of fall hughes.
