Taking a Few Days Off

Friends, I am taking a few days off! 

I have not had a real vacation in over 20 years, though Keith 

and I made several trips to see his daughter Amber play volleyball, 

and another for a family reunion on his side.  

We were never able to take the trip we had planned to 

Gettysburg together, though we both had gone individually. 

So... I am going to leave here, spend the night at 

my cousin's after a concert (Ringo and the All-Starr Band), 

and then fly to Milwaukee! 

I'll miss my helpers!

This one....

This one, my snuggle buddy...

Of course, these guys...

And these guys.  I went through my phone, taking out 

pictures and videos yesterday... who has a hundred videos of their ducks 

in their phone?????  

Gratuitous stink-eye picture, and she has actually now destroyed another 

planter so she can lay in it.  It was still in good shape, too. 

I wondered where all my eggs were going! 

I found these in the back corner of the sheep barn last night. 

Grandson Chris is here to farm-sit, and he already knows he has to 

search high and low for eggs. 

Today would have been my beautiful mother, Mary's, 104th birthday. 

She passed away ten years ago.  She was a stunner in her twenties, huh? 

Why I'm going to Milwaukee....Oh, Yes!
